COURSE: MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY, PROCESS & SYSTEM
Three-day intensive course led by Mark Wilf. The seminar topics
include practical information about performance and operating
conditions of reverse osmosis and nanofiltration technology for
brackish and seawater desalting.
The program includes introduction to membrane technology,
description of commercial membrane elements, illustration of the
membrane system design process and overview of systems operation.
Calculations of the investment and operating cost of membrane
plants, based on design cases will be illustrated.
2-5 April 2012, Genoa, Italy
ADVANCED COURSE: PRETREATMENT, MEMBRANE FOULING
& SCALING
Led by past EDS president Prof Jan C Schippers, the course includes
practice and theory on pretreatment, fouling and scaling in microand ultra- and nano-filtration and reverse osmosis applied for the
production of drinking and industrial water production. The impact
of the water source ��� seawater, river water, brackish ground water
and treated domestic waste water ��� will be discussed in depth.
18-20 April 2012, Almer��a, Spain
COURSE: DESALINATION WITH SOLAR ENERGY
The general purpose of this 3-day intensive course is to provide
experts, professionals and postgraduate students from all around the
world with the latest knowledge of the different existing technologies
involving the use of solar energy to drive desalination techniques.
The course will cover the basic principles of desalination using solar
energy, the state of the art of the most promising technologies and
the experiences acquired so far. Theory lessons will be complemented
with visits to the test facilities of Plataforma Solar de Almer��a
operating on solar power production and desalination, which are the
most advanced in the Mediterranean area.
