NAVIGATION GUIDE:

In Table 1 there are hypertext links to a page-by-page or slide show presentation of the membrane desalting plants. Since each page is a separate file, you can print out specific pages one at a time. At the bottom of this page there is a page-by-page Table of Contents which descibes what is to be found on each page.

MEMBRANE DESALTING PLANTS INVENTORY

PAGE-BY-PAGE TABLE OF CONTENTS

This Table of Contents can be searched using the "Find" feature: hold down the Ctrl key and press F; a pop-up menu appears in which you can type the keyword phrase. For example, a search on the term water reuse will pick up all the pages on which "water reuse" appears. Because each page is a separate file, you can easily print out just those pages!

Professors Nabil El-Ramly and Richard Einer Peterson express their thanks to the U. S. Department of the Interior Bureau of Reclamation and to Kevin Price and Susan Martella of the USBR Water Treatment Engineering & Research Group for their support for our DESALTING PLANTS INVENTORY:A DEMONSTRATION PROJECT. We also thank Dick Smith (Water Desalination Report), previous inventory suppliers -- Klaus Wangnick, Gordon Leitner, and O. J. Morin -- and the many firms and individuals who graciously responded to our requests for information.
