Book review
This volume is an essential companion to chemists, as well as to civil and chemical engineers who design, build and operate desalination plants. It is also highly relevant to maintenance personnel, corrosion specialists, material- and mechanical engineers. University lectures and researchers will nd it useful for their students while preparing their thesis on subjects related to desalination processes and plants. Not less so, desalination
industry executives should make sure that their eld managers and engineers in charge of running their plants will have access to it, and apply the built-in know-how in their daily work routine. All in all, this volume enables the reader to gain a deeper understanding of the state of the art of the desalination industry and to become acquainted with its most recent developments and technologies.
