摘要
This paper aims to assess desalination technologies for the utilization of desalinated brackish water in Jordan. Brackish waters in Jordan are viewed as a potential and viable resources to alleviate water scarcity and overcome water budget deficit. The evaluation of various desalination technologies was carried out using multi-criteria analysis. The criteria adopted for evaluation was based on technical, economic, and environmental aspects. Assessment of both quantity and quality of brackish waters were outlined. Inter-basin allocation of desalinated water was described as part of the emergency water plan in Jordan. The analysis reveals that reverse osmosis (RO) technology followed by electodialysis (ED) are ranked among the most appropriate.
