Session: Recent Advances in Membrane-Based Brine Minimization Technologies (2012 Annual Meeting)

Description:

A change is required in membrane-based treatment approaches to look at the challenges and discover innovative technological solutions to increase water recovery as well as to manage the waste/reject efficiently. This is especially important for industries which are the large consumers of water resources. This session will cover cutting edge technologies pertaining to increased recovery and efficient brine management. Papers which focus on the sharing of experiences through case studies are encouraged.
