The effect of increased top brine temperature on the performance and design of OT-MSF using a case study

A mathematical model of a Once-Through Multi-Stage-Flash (OT-MSF) desalination system is developed. This study shows the impact of top brine temperature (TBT) of up to 160 °C on both the design and performance characteristics of MSF systems. Such a high TBT can be achieved by nanofiltration pretreat...
