Summary
The subject provides general information about the processing of waters. Attention is paid to the processing of various types of waters as well as to all technology processes that are used during the processing and production of drinking and special waters for various plants (heating plants, boiler houses...).
Importance of membrane technologies and ion exchanges during processing of water to be used in cooling circuits.
