Membrane
Bioreactors:
Models for Bioprocess Design

Process intensification in a microbiological
membrane bioreactor is due, first of
all, to the concentration of bacterial
biomass. In an enzymatic membrane bioreactor
this is achieved by immobilization,
and consequently multiple use of the
enzyme which, depending on its activity,
can remain in the membrane bioreactor
either in a native form or can be bound
with the membrane. Additionally, a properly
selected membrane and method of transmembrane
mass transport can replace a multi-stage,
often complicated and costly, process
of reagent separation used in traditional
technologies. A description of the membrane
bioreactor in this book helps to minimize
costs of membrane bioreactor application.
This must be preceded by proper familiarity
with the process and identification
of parameters which affect the operation
of a membrane bioreactor.

One of the key challenges associated
with the wider implementation of seawater
desalination worldwide is its relatively
high cost. This book provides engineering
guidelines for assessment of seawater
desalination project construction, operation
and maintenance (O&M) costs, and presents
practical approaches for cost management
using state-of-the art design methods,
technologies and equipment. The book
describes step-by-step desalination
cost estimating procedures and practices.
It clearly explains key factors impacting
desalination costs and available tools
to manage such impacts. It also provides
an overview of the main cost-saving
features incorporated in some of the
best-in-class seawater desalination
plants worldwide and shares lessons
learned from the implementation of recent
low- and high-cost desalination projects.
This book contains example construction,
O&M and water production cost estimates
for a typical desalination project.

This book provides an overview of the
alternatives for management of concentrate
generated by brackish water and seawater
desalination plants, as well as site
specific factors involved in the selection
of the most viable alternative for a
given project, and the environmental
review requirements and studies associated
with their implementation. The book
focuses on widely used alternatives
for disposal of concentrate, including
discharge to surface water bodies; discharge
to the wastewater collection system;
deep well injection; land application;
evaporation; and zero liquid discharge.
Direct discharge through new outfall;
discharge through existing wastewater
treatment plant outfall; and co-disposal
with the cooling water of existing coastal
power plant are thoroughly evaluated
and design guidance for the use of these
concentrate disposal alternatives is
presented with engineers and practitioners
in the field of desalination in mind.
Key advantages, disadvantages, environmental
impact issues and possible solutions
are presented for each discharge alternative.

Fundamental and Applied Aspects of
Water Treatment
Mineral scale deposits, corrosion, suspended
matter, and microbiological growth are
factors that must be controlled in industrial
water systems. Research on understanding
the mechanisms of these problems has
attracted considerable attention in
the past three decades as has progress
concerning water treatment additives
to ameliorate these concerns. The
Science and Technology of Industrial
Water Treatment provides a comprehensive
discussion on the topic from specialists
in industry and academia.
