      abstract = {Seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) is the dominant  desalination process worldwide for obtaining fresh water  from the sea. The subject matter and scope of this book is  the conceptual and advanced planning, design and  engineering of plants of this desalination process together  with the associated facilities for seawater pretreatment,  post-treatment of the product water, wastewater treatment,  seawater extraction and plant discharge. Volume 1 of the  book comprises Strategic considerations regarding the role  of seawater desalination in an integrated water management  consisting of natural water resources, water recycling and  desalination Composition of seawater in different marine  regions as well as its physical and physicochemical  properties and their dependence on salinity and temperature  Description of the methodology used in the overall  planning, design and implementation of an SWRO project, as  well as in the associated site selection and the  development of an ecological concept for the plant  Explanation of the design basics and their application in  the dimensioning of the RO units of an SWRO and its energy  recovery processes The book is intended to be used by  technicians, engineers, economists and ecologists in the  planning, design and operation of SWRO plants, as an  educational and training tool, as well as an aid in  environmental licensing of membrane desalination plants,  and by interested laypersons for information about this  process. Heinz Ludwig gained his professional expertise  during more than five decades of business in the fields of  seawater desalination technologies, environmental  protection and treatment of process water, drinking water  and waste water. In seawater desalination he was involved  in a multitude of worldwide projects of brackish water and  seawater desalination with thermal processes and membrane  technologies.},
