项目摘要
Providing reliable, clean water is one of the greatest engineering challenges our society faces. This is a challenge for remote locations both in the developing world and in Canada. Currently, many remote communities rely on drawing water from multiple sources that is often contaminated with bacteria and dissolved salts. This water typically requires purification or desalination, which is lacking in remote communities, to meet World Health Organization standards [1].****This proposal is part of a long-term program to develop clean water systems with higher efficiencies, lower costs, and robustness to variable operating conditions. The five year research program proposed here has two short-term focuses. The first focus is to develop computer-based design tools for photovoltaic reverse osmosis systems (PVRO) and to integrate these technologies into the water system for a remote community. The second focus is to apply the design methods to develop prototype PVRO systems which are appropriate for remote locations.****Designing an integrated water solution for a remote community is a challenge as each community requires a custom system to best accommodate their own unique water needs, water sources, and energy sources. Unfortunately, custom design is expensive and beyond the reach of many such communities. This research program will develop computer-based design methods to aid in the configuration of water systems for remote communities. These methods will use physical models to analyze availability of different water sources, such as PVRO, cisterns, and wells, and use them in an optimization framework to determine the lowest cost system that meets the desired system performance.****PVRO systems have been developed to provide water to remote locations. Unfortunately, previous systems have reduced efficiency and high costs due to the incorporation of batteries and limitations in components available for community-scale applications, such as energy recovery devices. This research will use the computer-based design tools to develop an efficient PVRO system that eliminates batteries by varying the system operation to match the available solar power. In this approach, expensive energy storage is replaced by inexpensive water storage to deal with solar fluctuations. To enable this approach, a tailored energy recovery device and a control system will be developed to maximize the water production for the batteryless PVRO system.***This research will develop both physical water system technologies and computer-based tools to aid in the design of water systems for remote communities. These integrated water systems have the potential to provide a reliable clean drinking water supply and make a positive impact on the quality of life for more than 700 million people who lack access to clean drinking water [1].
提供可靠,清洁的水是我们社会面临的最大工程挑战之一。对于发展中国家和加拿大的偏远地区,这都是一个挑战。当前,许多偏远社区依靠从多种来源吸水,这些水经常被细菌和溶解的销售污染。这种水通常需要在偏远社区缺乏的净化或淡化才能符合世界卫生组织标准[1]。这里提出的五年研究计划具有两个短期重点。第一个重点是开发用于光伏反渗透系统(PVRO)的基于计算机的设计工具,并将这些技术集成到偏远社区的水系统中。第二个重点是将设计方法应用于开发适合偏远位置的原型PVRO系统。****为远程社区设计集成的水溶液是一个挑战,因为每个社区都需要一个自定义系统来最好地适应其自身独特的水需求,水源和能源。不幸的是,定制设计昂贵,并且超出了许多此类社区的影响力。该研究计划将开发基于计算机的设计方法,以帮助偏远社区的水系统配置。这些方法将使用物理模型来分析不同水源的可用性,例如PVRO,Cistern和Wells,并在优化框架中使用它们来确定符合所需系统性能的最低成本系统。**** PVRO系统已开发出来为偏远地区提供水。不幸的是,由于将电池和限制纳入可用于社区规模应用的组件(例如能源回收设备),因此以前的系统降低了效率和高成本。这项研究将使用基于计算机的设计工具来开发高效的PVRO系统,该系统通过改变系统操作以匹配可用太阳能来消除电池。在这种方法中,昂贵的储能取代了廉价的储水以处理太阳波动。为了启用这种方法,将开发一种量身定制的能源回收设备和控制系统,以最大程度地利用电池PVRO系统的水生产。这些集成的水系统有可能提供可靠的清洁饮用水供应,并对缺乏清洁饮用水的超过7亿人的生活质量产生积极影响[1]。
