Desalination technologies and their environmental impacts: A review

Deleted Journal, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 1, P. 100002 - 100002

Published: Feb. 5, 2024

The rapid increase in population growth and subsequent urbanization industrialization has led to a global water demand. Hence, due the challenges associated with accessing fresh water, desalination is increasingly being adopted meet About 61% of world's capacity made up seawater desalination, whilst 30% brackish desalination. Half accounted for by membrane which mostly uses reverse osmosis remaining half primarily utilized thermal multi-stage flash distillation multi-effect distillation. Although plays an indisputable role providing steady supply regions where freshwater resources are limited, it diverse effects on environment. Depending type feed-water used, method employed, how waste brine managed, process distinct variable environmental consequences. aim this review was provide comprehensive information technologies their impacts. To achieve this, current demand production were analyzed. This contains important understanding choosing environmentally friendly provision sustainable supply.

Solar desalination/purification (solar stills, humidification-dehumidification, solar disinfection) in high altitude during COVID19: Insights of gastrointestinal manifestations and systems’ mechanism

Journal of Hazardous Materials Advances, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 10, P. 100259 - 100259

From the starting of pandemic different transmission routes pathogen was brought into spotlight by researchers from disciplines. This matter in high-altitudes more boosted as main parameters were not exactly realized. In this review we are about to highlight possibility consuming contaminated water generated form solar desalination/disinfection systems highlands. Three including still, disinfection (which experimented authors 2019 high altitude) and humidification-dehumidification consider context. Ascribe risks pathogens where resources heavily polluted every corner world, highlighting risk high-altitude there many other associated with spread is great importance. As it reported, reliability desalination disinfections against novel coronavirus remained on question because virus can be transmitted vapor stills due tiny particle size (60-140 nm) would killed low-temperature operation <40 °C while for HDH contamination both air sars-cov-2 could a concern. Although SARS-CoV-2 waterborne pathogen, its capability replicate stomach infection gastrointestinal glandular suggested potential via fecal-oral. Eventually, concluded that using solar-based treatment drinking altitude regions should cautiously recommendations considerations presented. Importantly, critical only ongoing pandemic, but aims importance produced future epidemic/pandemic prevent entering particularly new routes.
