Entropy Generation Minimization for Energy-Efficient Desalination [PDF]
Volume 6B: Energy, 2018 Desalination systems can be conceptualized as power cycles, in which the useful work output is the work of separation of fresh water from saline water. In this framing, thermodynamic analysis provides powerful tools for raising energy efficiency. This paper discusses the use of entropy generation minimization for a spectrum of desalination systems ...
