NDS is a group of world’s well known desalination experts, providing integrated services for the deployment of desalination systems at the lowest costs.
Why NDS ?
In almost all countries, wishing to deploy integrated desalination systems, the decision makers need to access immediately some basic facts and figures regarding main characteristics of the proposed systems, cost estimates, environmental impacts, etc.
By definition, since there are no on-going programmes, the decisions have to be delayed until collaboration agreements have been signed with suppliers, engineers have been trained and numerous political discussions have taken place. Obviously this not only takes a lot of time but also involves considerable expenditure.
NDS is created to eliminate this very frequent problem. NDS is a start up whose main objective is to provide all essential services to organisations or countries, wishing to study or deploy integrated desalination systems.
Scope of Activities
A very unusual feature of NDS will be to train engineers/scientists in their own laboratories to realise the specific studies or tasks required. This would not only save considerable amount of time and money in negotiations and political haggling but it would also create the skilled manpower in the client countries with minimal costs, since travel and other expenses would disappear.
As the name indicates, NDS would be able to provide :
- Complete feasibility studies of integrated nuclear desalination systems for a given site
- Training of young engineers/scientists in their country of origin
- Comparative economic evaluations of nuclear and fossile energy based integrated desalination systems
- Planning and requirements for the implementation of nuclear energy programmes
- Development of computer codes for the economic evaluation of nuclear and fossil energy based systems
- Development of specific computer codes and simulators concerning desalination systems, etc.
- Safety studies of proposed nuclear desalination systems
- Liaison services between suppliers and clients
- Preparation of reports in English or French or Arabic or in any combination thereof
Experience from some international projects and studies
Source: IAEA, INDAG Newsletters.
- Site specific feasibility studies for Tunisia; the TUNDESAL project (technical coordination of a mixed team of Engineers from CEA, STEG (Tunisian utility), SONEDE (Tunisian water company). The final report led STEG to opt for the nuclear option.
- The EURODESAL generic study: included industrial companies such as ANSALDO (Italy); AREVA NP(France); CANDESAL(Canada); EMPRESSARIOS AGRUPADOS (Spain); IRRADIARE (Portugal) and R&D organisations: University of ROME and CEA (France).
- Coordination and research for the Indo-French collaboration agreement in the field of nuclear desalination.
- Elaboration of the technical programme for the LIBNDP1 project (French-Libyan Collaboration programme) aimed at using the Tajoura reactor as a nuclear desalination demonstration plant.
- Contributions to several IAEA TECDOCS; preparation of TECDOCS 1524 (Status of Nuclear Desalination in IAEA Member States) and 1561 (Economics of Nuclear Desalination: New Developments and Case Studies).
