Seawater desalination — SWCC experience and vision

Desalination, 2001
Abstract In order to appreciate Mankind's technological advancements, one needs to present a historical overview. This applies to desalination technology (among all other human developments). Over the millennia, desalination did develop very slowly at the start and then its development started to accelerate.

The parameters fitness of SWCC considering consolidation stress by GA

2010 International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Integrated Systems, 2010
Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) is one of the most important parameters of unsaturated soils. It plays an important role in theoretical research and practical application. For the convenience of practical application, some models are presented, such as Gardner model, V-G model, etc.

Experimental Study on the SWCC Transition Zone Features of Unsaturated Soil

Indian Geotechnical Journal, 2019
In order to study the soils SWCC transition zone features under different steady-state and transient conditions, a series of pressure plate and model tests were carried out; the internal structure adjustment of soil caused by different test conditions is the underlying reason for the change in SWCC transition zone curve.

A BP neural network model for SWCC considering consolidation stress

2010 IEEE International Conference on Intelligent Computing and Intelligent Systems, 2010
Soil-Water Characteristic Curve (SWCC) plays an important role in theoretical research and practical application. At present, SWCC can be obtained from experiments. The experimental results are inconvenient for practical application. Some models are presented to fit experimental results, such as Gardner model, V-G model, etc.

Comparison of testing techniques and models for establishing the SWCC of riverbank soils

Engineering Geology, 2010
Abstract The soil water characteristic curve (SWCC), also known as soil water retention curve (SWRC), describes the relationship between water content and soil suction in unsaturated soils. Water content and suction affect the permeability, shear strength, volume change and deformability of unsaturated soils.

Performance evaluation of SWCC SWRO plants

Desalination, 1989
Abstract The study deals with the performance evaluation of three SWCC SWRO plants, two supplying water to remote area towns and the third supplying water to Jeddah: • the 4400 m3/d Umm Lujj Plant, commissioned July 1986, • the 2275 m3/d Al-Brik Plant, commissioned Dec 1983 and • the 12000 m3/d Jeddah Plant, commissioned 1979.
