Best Desalination Practice BOOK
As a desalination researcher, lecturer and conference organizer, I am familiar with over a dozen books treating membrane based desalination technology. Having acquired the recently published book authored by Wilf et al, I found that this is by far the best if not the only available monograph on the practical aspects involved in planning, designing, operating and managing desalination plants. The unique aspect of this book is that it reflects the wide industrial experience of the authors, gathered through numerous projects they undertook within the framework of major desalination enterprises. Among the virtues of this book are that it provides in an easily accessible form a reliable compilation of hard to find information such as alternative design approaches, cost evaluation methods, concentrate disposal management and fouling control issues, supported by real life examples. In my view, this book is a must for desalination planners and design engineers and for desalination researchers seeking to familiarize themselves with major bottlenecks awaiting R&D investigations.

An excellent book for professionals and students in desalination field
The Guidebook to Membrane Desalination Technology : Reverse Osmosis, Nanofiltration and Hybrid Systems Process, Design, Applications and Economics
It is an excellent book on membrane desalination processes that I would like to recommend to professionals and students in this field. It has a very nice covergae of the principles and theories of the process that can prepare readers to understand the essence of process design. However, the thing I like most of the book is that it contains so many examples from the real world that cover every aspect of practical design of membrane process for water desalination. They will give you the sense on what are issues particularly concerned in membrane process design and how to deal with them. It is truely a valuable piece of work from the experts who know the process the best.
