The Water Environment Federation (Alexandria, Va.) and WaterReuse Association (Alexandria) have released the publication Desalination Engineering: Planning and Design.

The publication provides comprehensive information on the planning and engineering of brackish and seawater desalination projects for municipal water supplies. After a brief overview of widely used desalination technologies, Desalination Engineering focuses on reverse-osmosis desalination. The book discusses basic principles, planning and environmental review of projects, design and selection of key desalination plant components, desalinated water post-treatment, and concentrate management. Guidelines on sizing and cost estimation of desalination plant facilities also are included in this resource.
