Additional information

Fouling affects external energy consumption (and thus carbon footprint) significantly in MSF desalination processes. For the first time, a dynamic fouling model has been developed and incorporated in model based simulation and optimisation of the MSF process with an ultimate goal of minimising the total operating cost (steam & power consumption representing energy cost). A number of recent papers on desalination including this one led to the keynote presentations at the Computer Aided Process Engineering Forum 2008 (Greece) and International Symposium on Process Systems Engineering 2012 (Singapore).
