Abstract:
The energy-intensive desalination processes are heavily used to fulfill the water demand in heavy industries, consequently increasing their carbon footprints. Reducing the energy consumption associated with water production could be achieved by integrating renewable energy and energy recovery technologies into the desalination processes. This research highlights the potential outcomes of shifting industrial ancillary water production from conventional fossil fuel-dependent to a more sustainable process by utilizing energy recovery and photovoltaic (PV) technologies.
