Desalination
of Seawater and Brackish Water
Edited by William C. Lauer
Desalination using either membrane or thermal
processes can produce high-quality drinking
water. Water shortages and water quality
issues are leading some utilities to consider
using seawater or brackish water as drinking water sources.
These alternatives to traditional surface or groundwater supplies are becoming
more cost-competitive due to advancements in technology, as well as increased
use. Seawater desalination has already become a well-established water treat-
ment practice in some parts of the world.
This is a compilation of the most significant recently published articles on
desalination. The articles were selected from AWWA conference proceedings
and AWWA periodicals. Topics include seawater desalination, brackish water
desalination, membrane softening, concentrate disposal issues, planning,
cost, and project delivery.

Unidirectional Flushing
Utilities across the country are using unidirectional flushing to combat
problems like taste and odor, discolored water, and heterotrophic
microorganisms. Unidirectional flushing uses targeted high-velocity
water flow moving from source to hydrant in an outbound direction
to scour your distribution system. This DVD explains concepts and tech-
niques of unidirectional flushing; how to develop a flushing plan using
paper maps; how computer-aided mapping simplifies the project; ben-
efits versus traditional flushing techniques; and the benefits to
consumers and the community. It includes a case study that looks at
Virginia Beach’s program following a change of their water treatment
provider’s primary disinfectant to chloramines.

Water Conservation-Oriented
Rates:
Young-Doo Wang, William James Smith, Jr.,
John Byrne
Water conservation-oriented rates are an effective tool
for reducing water use in cities that are faced with
drought. This report discusses the most common types
of water conservation-oriented rates, including drought
demand rates, excess use rates or excess surcharges,
inclining block rates, and seasonal rates. The book
explores implementation issues,
economic issues for the utility and the consumer (espe-
cially low-income consumers),
advantages and disadvantages, for which customer groups or situations each rate
type is suitable, and real-world utility experiences with these types of rates.
