Program Name	Public-Private Partnership (PPP)
Overview	Water Academy (WA) offers a course on the foundations of public-private partnership in the water sector.   Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is a business relation between the public sector and the private sector for the purpose of delivering a project or a service traditionally provided by the public sector. The advantage of a PPP is that the management skills and financial acumen of private businesses could create better value when proper cooperative arrangements between the public and private sectors are used.   PPP in water sector can increase the quality, the efficiency and the competitiveness of public services. It can supplement limited public sector capacities and raise additional finance in an environment of budgetary restrictions. The best use of private sector operational efficiencies can increase quality to the public and the ability to speed up infrastructure development.   In this course, participants will gain practical knowledge of the core concepts, strategies and tools, which will enable them to initiate successful public private partnerships.

COURSE OUTLINE

• Identify the principles and processes of various desalination technologies.
• Evaluate the advantages and limitations of different desalination techniques.
• Analyze the environmental and economic implications of desalination technologies.
• Apply knowledge of desalination technologies to real-world scenarios and case studies.
• Develop a comprehensive understanding of the current and emerging trends in saline water desalination.

Overview:

Desalination is a recurrent term in our time. In fact, it is a technology that has gone through a huge development since its apparition, and today it is a reliable water treatment technique that allows producing drinking water from oceans. The objective is to improve the energy efficiency of the system in order to save on operation costs as well as reduce the carbon and ecological footprints. Reverse osmosis membranes with higher surface area have lower energy consumption, as well as energy recovery systems to recover the brine pressure and introduce it in the system. Accounting for the operation, maintenance and handling of the membranes is also important in energy savings, in order to improve the energy efficiency. The energy consumption depends on the permeate water quality required and the model of the reverse osmosis membrane installed in the seawater desalination plant.

Outlines:

• Reverse Osmosis Fundamentals.
• 
  
• Desalination Plant Operation and Performance Monitoring.
• 
  
• Source Water Quality Characterization.
