Resumo: | B Brackish water and seawater desalination have become important freshwater sources in arid and semi-arid regions suffering from water scarcity. Fortunately, the availability of solar energy provides an excellent opportunity to replace conventional energy with renewable energy for desalination system power. However, technical and economic feasibility studies must be carried out according to the characteristics of each region to assess its economic feasibility. This study assessed the techno-economic feasibility of a solar-powered desalination small-scale BWRO with a capacity of 2.016 m3/day. Two scenarios were proposed: a desalination station powered by a public network without a solar energy system (On-Grid) and a second powered by photovoltaic panels (Off-Grid). The result shows that the water production cost of the Off-Grid system (0.33 $/m3) was about 1.14 times lower than the water production cost of the On-Grid system (0.38 $/m3). The economic analysis result shows that the reverse osmosis desalination system coupled with a photovoltaic system (Off-Grid) is an economically suitable option for satisfying the increasing freshwater product demand compared to the grid-powered system (On-Grid), especially in arid areas. |

Afortunadamente, la disponibilidad de energía solar brinda una excelente oportunidad para reemplazar la energía convencional con energía renovable para la energía del sistema de desalinización. Sin embargo, se deben realizar estudios de viabilidad técnica y económica según las características de cada región para evaluar su viabilidad económica. Este estudio evaluó la viabilidad tecnoeconómica de una BWRO de desalinización a pequeña escala alimentada por energía solar con una capacidad de 2.016 m3/día. Se propusieron dos escenarios: una estación desaladora alimentada por red pública sin sistema de energía solar (On-Grid) y una segunda alimentada por paneles fotovoltaicos (Off-Grid). El resultado muestra que el costo de producción de agua del sistema fuera de la red (0,33 $/m3) fue aproximadamente 1,14 veces menor que el costo de producción de agua del sistema conectado (0,38 $/m3). El resultado del análisis económico muestra que el sistema de desalinización por ósmosis inversa acoplado a un sistema fotovoltaico (Off-Grid) es una opción económicamente adecuada para satisfacer la creciente demanda de productos de agua dulce en comparación con el sistema alimentado por red (On-Grid), especialmente en zonas áridas.L’eau saumâtre et le dessalement de l’eau de mer sont devenus d’importantes sources d’eau douce dans les régions arides et semi-arides souffrant de pénurie d’eau. Heureusement, la disponibilité de l’énergie solaire offre une excellente opportunité de remplacer l’énergie conventionnelle par des énergies renouvelables pour alimenter le système de dessalement. Cependant, des études de faisabilité technique et économique doivent être réalisées en fonction des caractéristiques de chaque région pour évaluer sa faisabilité économique. Cette étude a évalué la faisabilité technico-économique d'un BWRO de dessalement à petite échelle à énergie solaire d'une capacité de 2,016 m3/jour. Deux scénarios ont été proposés : une station de dessalement alimentée par un réseau public sans système d'énergie solaire (On-Grid) et une seconde alimentée par des panneaux photovoltaïques (Off-Grid). Le résultat montre que le coût de production d'eau du système hors réseau (0,33 $/m3) était environ 1,14 fois inférieur au coût de production d'eau du système en réseau (0,38 $/m3). Le résultat de l'analyse économique montre que le système de dessalement par osmose inverse couplé à un système photovoltaïque (Off-Grid) est une option économiquement appropriée pour satisfaire la demande croissante de produits d'eau douce par rapport au système alimenté par le réseau (On-Grid), en particulier dans les zones arides. .?Universidade Federal de Viçosa - UFV2024-04-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufv.br/jcec/article/view/1829910.18540/jcecvl10iss3pp18299The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; Vol. 10 No. 3 (2024): In progress; 18299The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; Vol. 10 Núm. 3 (2024): In progress; 18299The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences; v. 10 n. 3 (2024): In progress ; 182992527-1075reponame:The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciencesinstname:Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)instacron:UFVenghttps://periodicos.ufv.br/jcec/article/view/18299/9613Copyright (c) 2024 The Journal of Engineering and Exact Scienceshttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAdda, AsmaBezari, SalahAbbas, MohamedHanini, Salah2024-04-23T18:41:20Zoai:ojs.periodicos.ufv.br:article/18299Revistahttp://www.seer.ufv.br/seer/rbeq2/index.php/req2/oai2527-10752527-1075opendoar:2024-04-23T18:41:20The Journal of Engineering and Exact Sciences - Universidade Federal de Viçosa (UFV)false |
