Business Opportunity Originated‚ Screened and Confirmed Viable: Water desalination is the removal of salts and dissolved solids from saline water (brackish or seawater)‚ also known as Desalting or Desalinization. In addition to the removal of minerals‚ the process removes most biological or organic chemical compounds. Desalination systems have been used to supply potable water for coastal communities and urban centers in more than 40 countries. Desalination plants operate in almost all of the world’s

Gulf countries depend heavily on seawater desalination for drinking water. But experts warns that pollution of gulf water could soon make it impossible to treat seawater for human consumption.

The treatment of the seawater for remove impurities is as the traditional treatment (coagulation‚ flocculation‚ chemicals‚ and sand filters). After this is though other filter the diatomaceous which remove silt and fine particles. Thus‚ the next process is the reverse osmosis which the membrane separated the water in potable water and concentrated seawater. The concentrated seawater need to dissolve by chemical for

Discussion Section-1 November 17‚ 2011 The other CO₂ Problem Todays oceans are not the same as they once were prior to the industrial revolution. The ocean serves as a reservoir for the worlds green house gasses. The increase in anthropogenic CO₂ has also resulted in an increase in the uptake by the ocean of CO₂. As a result of this uptake‚ the ocean is becoming progressively more and more acidic. This acidification of the ocean is expected to have great impacts on marine ecosystems. Coral

Introduction Tropical island reef flats serve as habitats for a diverse range of organisms. Among these organisms is an abundance of macroalgae. Macroalgae may even be numerous enough to comprise most of the benthic area near a reef (Carpenter 1986‚ Villaça et al. 2010‚ Hay 1981). The large presence of macroalgae corresponds to a large role as primary producers (Carpenter 1986). Thus‚ these organisms can play an important part in marine food webs. Aside from the effects of herbivores‚ macroalgae
