2015 AIChE Annual Meeting Proceedings

Session: Research Frontier of Water Sustainability

This session provides a snapshot of the latest R&D development on production of fresh water (water reuse and desalination) and osmotic energy, environmental pollution control of waste water discharge, and recycle of industrial process water. This is a platform for international exchange, participation, and collaboration.
