Thermodynamics, Exergy, and Energy Efficiency in Desalination Systems
Desalination is the thermodynamic process of separating fresh water from water that contains dissolved salts. This chapter introduces the concepts and methods required for thermodynamic analysis of desalination systems. Thermodynamic laws are summarized along with the chemical thermodynamics of elec...
