Abstract
Designs and develops two inter-stage treatment systems to increase recovery in reverse osmosis preparation of drinking water and thus reduce disposal costs in particular for inland facilities. Compares recovery using advanced oxidation of anti-scaling compounds and subsequent solid precipitation with that of electrodialysis. Published in 2011.
