“…However, CO 2 capture and/or absorption are not limited solely to these aforementioned purposes. In desalination plants, remineralizating the water to render it noncorrosive, nonaggressive, and palatable takes place via lime or limestone dissolution in CO 2 -acidified desalinated water. − Furthermore, the release of CO 2 from the evaporating brine in seawater thermal distillers contributes to scale formation on heat-transfer surfaces, severely affecting their performance and efficiency; therefore, methods for increasing the solubility of CO 2 in water are being investigated. ,− In the textile and other industries, the absorption of carbon dioxide in aqueous sodium chromate solutions is used to obtain sodium dichromate, a dyeing auxiliary . Moreover, carbon dioxide stripping in cell-culture reactors is of great importance, where CO 2 -enriched waters are used as a source of carbon in bioreactors.…”

This article is a comprehensive review of the literature dealing with the transfer of carbon dioxide to water where no chemical reactions are taking place. It reviews the studies related to the absorption and desorption kinetics, mass-transfer rates, effect of the contactor geometry, effect of water salinity, and the effects of temperature and pressure on the process in conventional reactors or the more recently common membrane contactors. The available data show inconsistent trends and an abundance of system-and geometry-specific correlations/models to predict the mass-transfer performance, which may explain the inefficient design of most industrially available contactors. Furthermore, no agreement can be found in the literature on the effect of temperature and pressure of the system, as well as the presence of additives in the water, on the solubility of CO 2 .

Desalination and Water Treatment

A B S T R A C TYanbu Industrial City (YIC) in Saudi Arabia depends on seawater desalination for its entire fresh water supply. The fresh water is supplied by a desalination plant that consists of nine multi-stage flash (MSF) distillation units and seven reverse osmosis (RO) desalination trains. The product water from the MSF and RO desalination processes requires post-treatment to prepare it for potable use. The distillate from the MSF units is remineralized by adding hydrated lime and carbon dioxide, chlorinated by the injection of chlorine gas, and aerated with compressed air. The remineralization steps result in raising pH, alkalinity, and hardness of the water, thereby stabilizing the water. For the permeate from the RO trains, hydrated lime and sodium hypochlorite are added. This paper presents the potable water quality data for the last 6 years from 2006 to 2011 and the water characteristics in YIC, along with the post-treatment processes of the desalinated water. YIC's potable water produced by seawater desalination is of high quality and prevents bacteriological growth without any microbiological contamination. The water is healthy and suitable for human consumption and use on the basis of the water quality monitoring data with respect to its physical, chemical, and biological characteristics.
