Preface

Water supply systems are crucial in supporting industrial oil, gas, and other chemical processing systems. Reliability of supply and cost of water to such industries is important for both the sustainable management of such industries and for the provision of a supply market. This book, therefore, overviews and introduces the technical matters related to the process design and selection of water supply systems used in such industries. In doing so, it provides an introduction to the field of industrial processing water supply management, and a frame for further engagement in the detailed literature of this field. Both process design and proces
