Overview

As population growth and rising demands place increased stress on freshwater supplies worldwide, seawater desalination has become a feasible option for an alternative water supply in coastal areas. An official AWWA Manual of Water Supply Practices, M61, Desalination of Seawater, provides technical and planning guidance for drinking water utilities currently operating, developing, or considering desalination facilities. This second edition contains updated and expanded information on seawater treatment technologies and processes, including pretreatment and posttreatment, source and finished water quality, residuals management, and potential environmental impacts from desalination. This update also features three new chapters that provide in-depth information on facility construction and procurement and operations and maintenance, as well as seven case studies featuring desalination facilities across the globe.
