Keyword: Dynamic Simulation; Model; Deign; Reere Omoi; Dealination Sytem. 1. INTRODUCTION The water dealination indutry wa tarted early in the 20th century. True expanion and pread of the water dealination indutry occurred during the There are eeral commercial method uch a multitage flah (MSF), multi effect ditillation (MED), apor compreion (VC) ditillation, reere omoi (RO), and electrodialyi (ED) propoed for water dealination. Table 1 illutrate the worldwide capacity for eeral commercial dealination proce (Lee, 2009). It i apparent that multitage flah and reere omoi technologie remain the main tandard in today eawater dealination indutry. Alatiqi et al. [1999] preented a reiew for the control loop and intrumentation ued in MSF and RO plant. Van der Bruggen and Vandecateele [2002] proided an oeriew of important proce improement in eawater dealination uing RO, MSF, MED and ED. Recently, the market hare of RO dealination ha ignificantly increaed becaue of low operating temperature, modular deign, low energy requirement and low water production cot. The piral wound module i mot popular among RO membrane module. Many mathematical model hae been propoed to characterize the eparatie propertie of membrane during the pat two decade. But far fewer model hae been deeloped to 1
2 decribe the whole membrane module. Senthilmurugan et al. [2005] deeloped a teady-tate model for the piral wound module uing a three-parameter nonlinear membrane tranport model. Abba [2005] preented a emi-rigorou teady-tate model for imulation and analyi of an indutrial medium-cale brackih water RO plant baed on piral-wound membrane module. Senthilmurugan et al. [2005] deeloped a teady-tate model for the piral wound module uing a three-parameter nonlinear membrane tranport model. Recently, Oh et al. [2009] propoed a implified imulation model baed on the olution-diffuion theory and multiple fouling mechanim to analyze the operation, optimization and performance of RO ytem. Kaghazchi et al. [2010] preented a emi-rigorou teady-tate model to imulate and inetigate the operaton and performance of two indutrial eawater RO plant baed on piral-wound membrane module. A mentioned by Marriott and Sorenen [2003], due to the complex mechanim of flow through membrane module and lot of idealized aumption, exiting RO unit model are uually proce pecific and are only alid within a limited operating range. They deeloped a detailed mathematical model of a general membrabe eparation proce from rigorou ma, momentum and energy balance and diregard ome common aumption. Thi work trie to tudy the dynamic characteritic and proce operation apect of an indutrial largecaled RO dealination plant. The feaible teady-tate and dynamic model of the membrane module and RO plant preented in the literature are effectiely combined to deelop the oerall proce flow heet for the indutrial cale RO dealination proce by uing powerful commercial proce deign imulator. Simulation reult of the teady-tate and dynamic operating condition of the propoed RO proce flow heet are compared to thoe hown in the literature. Table 1: Worldwide capacity for eeral commercial dealination proce (Lee, 2009) Dealination proce MSF RO MED ED VC TOTAL % total world capacity (1996) % total world capacity (2003) RO DESALINATION SYSTEM DESCRIPTION Reere omoi i a preure-drien membrane proce ued to eparate olute and olent of the ame order of molecular ize. It i well known the mot common application of RO unit i the eparation of alt from water to obtain portable water. There are four type of membrane module aailable in the marketplace: plate and frame, hollow-fiber, piral-wound and tubular. Among thee membrane module, the piral wound module occupie the larget market hare due to it relatie eae of cleaning, fabrication technology and ery large urface area per unit olume. In general, the RO dealination ytem include feed and 2
3 product treatment unit, membrane module, feed pump and energy recoery deice (ERD). Figure 1 how a implified ketch of the RO plant. The Jeddah 1 RO dealination plant Phae II in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia wa commercially operated on Jeddah 1 RO plant ha a production capacity of 30 MGPD (113,600 m 3 /day). At that time, combining phae I and phae II plant gae the larget eawater RO plant in the world. By uing actual operating data from thi large cale commercial RO dealination plant, Al-Shayji [1998] firt deeloped a neural-network approach for the prediction and optimization of proce performance ariable of thi RO plant. Table 2 gie deign pecification for thi indutrial dealination proce (Al-Shayji, 1998). Thi work trie to tudy the dynamic characteritic and proce operation apect of the mentioned large cale RO dealination plant. The feaible dynamic RO model are tudied to deelop the oerall proce flow heet for the indutrial cale RO dealination proce by uing powerful commercial proce deign imulator.

(2) Membrane: type, ize and the number of module ued and their arrangement. (3) Rate and degree of fouling and cleaning ability. (4) Operating condition uch a feed preure, temperature and permeate recoery. (5) Efficiency of pump and energy recoery deice. In thi tudy, the effectiene of the pretreatment unit i neglected and a binary ytem i conidered. The piral wound module with general property i ued in the RO membrane module. To inetigate the dynamic characteritic and proce operation apect of an indutrial RO dealination plant, the teady-tate and dynamic mathematical model for the membrane module are deeloped below. 3.1 Model Aumption The main aumption ued for the RO model deriation include: (1) The olutiondiffuion model i alid for the tranport mechanim of the olute and olent through the membrane. (2) The RO membrane module i non-porou and i treated a a flat heet with pacer. (3) The RO proce i iothermal. (4) Omoi preure i proportional to the alt concentration and preure drop in permeate ide i negligible. (5) The film model theory and Fick law for diffuion are applicable for calculating concentration polarization effect. (6) Diffuion coefficient i independent of olute concentration. (7) Ma tranfer coefficient i contant for a gien fluid condition. 3.2 Membrane Tranport Modeling Senthilmurugan et al. [2005] and Oh et al. [2009] hae applied the olution-diffuion model modified with the concentration polarization theory for analyzing the operation, optimization and performance of RO ytem. According to the chematic diagram of the RO proce hown in Figure 1, the following teady-tate membrane tranport equation can be deried. The olent flux, J, through the membrane i gien by J L P P ) L [ P ( P )] (1) ( f lo f d where L i the olent tranport parameter, P f i the feed preure and P lo i the preure lo by omoi preure Δπ and the preure drop along a RO ytem P d. Here, L, Δπ and P d are expreed by (Oh et al., 2009) L L 0 e 1 1 1( T 293) 2Pf 293 R c 1 A A m (2) ( c c RT (3) m p ) 2 zd h P d 1 (4) 4

R i the ideal ga contant.γ 1 andγ 2 are two contant for preure drop along a RO ytem. z, d h andν denote the feed olution elocity on the bulk olution ide, hydraulic diameter and kinematic icoity, repectiely. The olute flux, J, through the membrane i gien by J J c L c c ) (5) p ( m p where L i the olute tranport parameter L L 0 e 1 ( T 273) 273 (6) where L 0 i the intrinic olute tranport parameter and β 1 i contant for olute tranport. Accumulation of the impermeable olute on the membrane urface lead to the deelopment of a concentration polarization layer which may be determined by the concentration polarization.

According to the chematic diagram of a flat membrane enelope hown in Figure 2, the following dynamic ma balance can be deried. cb Fz 1 cb 1 J cb z D J t z h z z h (9) where c b i the olute molar flux in the axial direction and h i the channel height on the feed ide. In thi work, the effect of the olute molar flux in the piral direction i neglected for implifying Eq. 9. On the other hand, the effect of the change in concentration due to the flux of olent through the membrane i not conidered in Eq. 9. A mentioned by Lee et al. [2001], Eq. 9 can be modified a 5

Mot of the alue of parameter and pecification are taken from the literature of Senthilmurugan et al. [2005] and Oh et al. [2009]. Some unknown parameter are found from the literature of Lee et al. [1999] and Abba [2007]. Here, the RO ytem imulation model i built on Apen Cutom Modeler platform. The model i then ued for analyzing the effect of the ariation of the feed parameter on the permeate flowrate. A hown in Figure 3, the permeate flowrate i een to decreae with increaing feed concentration. In Figure 4, the permeate flowrate i een to increae with increaing feed preure.
