Abstract

âº A hybrid process combining RO and RED is proposed. âº The complementary effects between RO and RED are mathematically interpreted. âº Designs of the hybrid process with different configurations are demonstrated. âº The operating conditions of the RED unit is optimized for the hybrid process. âº The energy consumption and discharge salinity are compared for different modes.
