商品描述

Apply thermodynamic principles to calculate energy demands in water treatment

Designing energy-efficient water treatment systems requires quantitative methods that most engineering curricula fail to provide. Fundamentals of Energy Analysis of Water Treatment Systems delivers the first dedicated textbook connecting thermodynamic fundamentals to water treatment energy calculations. Charles J. Werth, a recognized authority in environmental engineering with over 170 publications, presents a systematic approach for analyzing energy requirements across treatment technologies.

The book covers the First, Second, and Third Laws of Thermodynamics through the lens of water treatment applications. Engineers learn to calculate internal energy, enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy for both closed and open systems. Chapters address energy analysis of membrane desalination, thermal distillation, electrodialysis, and electrochemical oxidation processes with worked examples throughout.

Readers will also find:

  • Energy balance calculations for reverse osmosis, multi-stage flash distillation, and electrodialysis systems with step-by-step worked examples
  • Methods for quantifying thermodynamic efficiency of treatment technologies to improve design decisions and reduce operational costs
  • End-of-chapter problems enabling students to apply principles to realistic water treatment scenarios and energy optimization challenges
  • Modular chapter structure supporting standalone thermodynamics courses or integration into water-energy electives at multiple levels
  • Direct connections between theoretical principles and real-world sustainability goals in water infrastructure design and assessment

Environmental engineers, civil engineering students, and water treatment professionals will find this textbook indispensable for energy-aware design. Whether used in upper-undergraduate thermodynamics courses, a graduate water-energy course, or as a professional reference, this resource provides a quantitative foundation for sustainable treatment system development.

商品描述(中文翻譯)

應用熱力學原理計算水處理的能量需求

設計節能的水處理系統需要定量方法,而大多數工程課程未能提供這些方法。水處理系統能量分析基礎 是第一本專門將熱力學基礎與水處理能量計算相連結的教科書。查爾斯·J·沃斯(Charles J. Werth)是環境工程領域的公認權威,擁有超過170篇的出版物,提出了一種系統化的方法來分析各種處理技術的能量需求。

本書通過水處理應用的視角涵蓋了熱力學的第一、第二和第三定律。工程師將學會計算封閉系統和開放系統的內能、焓、熵和吉布斯自由能。各章節針對膜海水淡化、熱蒸餾、電滲析和電化學氧化過程進行能量分析,並提供了詳細的範例。

讀者還將發現:


  • 反滲透、多級閃蒸和電滲析系統的能量平衡計算,並附有逐步的範例

  • 量化處理技術熱力學效率的方法,以改善設計決策並降低運營成本

  • 章末問題使學生能夠將原理應用於現實的水處理情境和能量優化挑戰

  • 模組化的章節結構,支持獨立的熱力學課程或整合到多個層級的水-能源選修課程中

  • 理論原則與水基礎設施設計和評估中的現實可持續性目標之間的直接聯繫

環境工程師、土木工程學生和水處理專業人士將發現這本教科書對於具能量意識的設計至關重要。無論是在高年級本科熱力學課程、研究生水-能源課程中使用,還是作為專業參考資料,這本資源都為可持續處理系統的開發提供了定量基礎。
