Abstract

Water is the new oil of the 21st century due to increased consumption and demand. High-quality water with free of contamination is vital for human beings and many industries such as oil and gas, petrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and food. To meet the massive amount of freshwater production, United Arab Emirates (UAE) relies on the energy-intensive Multi-Stage Flash (MSF) and Multi-Effect Distillation (MED) technologies to provide fresh water for various applications. These energy-intensive processes consume a significant share of UAE oil and gas. In general, thermal desalination is an energy-intensive process. UAE is shifting to use Reverse Osmosis (RO) desalination for the freshwater production. To reduce the energy consumptionand the pretreatment stages onsite monitoring of the seawater intake has to be intensively recorded. This study discusses a design of a seawater test station, which has a sensor network to measure the quality parameters of seawater, including the water’s pH.
