“…Using design values of DOW company tables and the number of elements it is possible to calculate the number of steps to achieve a desired recovery. After determining the number of stages, using a specified stage ratio (Equation 3) the number of pressure vessels within each stage can be achieved from Equations (4) and (5). 64 In this equation Q p is rate of permeate flow (m 3 /h) and S m is membrane area (m 2 ).…”

In this article the solar energy is utilized to generate needed steam for a power generation cycle which in turn provides the required power of a RO system. Optimization was carried out on two levels. First, Economizer, Evaporator, Super heater in power generation cycle as well as the type of membrane, PV numbers and series were optimized. In addition, the optimum design of a solar field for the system was carried out and the collector specifications, number of branches, and flow rate were designed. Based on the first level, optimization was designed to reduce costs and increase the permeate water production and reduction in costs and pressure drop of the solar filed. Preheating of the RO feed water had different effects on the production of fresh water at various concentrations. For feed water with constant flow rate and concentration of 45 000 ppm, the maximum rate of permeate flow was obtained at 26°C, while for concentration of 35 000 ppm, the maximum permeate flow rate was achieved at 33°C. By using 5 parallel elements SW30XLE‐400 for RO system, in the optimized condition, permeate flow rate and recovery were 9494.19 (m3/day) and 59.5%, respectively. In this condition, the unit production cost of water was 0.6046 ($/m3).

This study proposed an optimal hybrid renewable energy system (HRES) to sustainably meet the dynamic electricity demand of a membrane bioreactor. The model-based HRES consists of solar photovoltaic panels, wind turbines, and battery banks with grid connectivity. Three scenarios, 101 sub-scenarios, and three management cases were defined to optimally design the system using a novel dual-scale optimization approach. At the system scale, the power-pinch analysis was applied to minimize both the size of components and the outsourced needed electricity (NE) from Vietnam’s electrical grid. At a local-scale, economic and environmental models were integrated, and the system was graphically optimized using a novel objective function, combined enviro-economic costs (CEECs). The results showed that the optimal CEECs were $850,710/year, $1,030,628/year, and $1,693,476/year for the management cases under good, moderate, and unhealthy air qualities, respectively. The smallest CEEC was obtained when 47% of the demand load of the membrane bioreactor was met using the HRES and the rest was supplied by the grid, resulting in 6,800,769 kg/year of CO2 emissions.
