As the total energy required and the efficiency of the process are the main parameters to decide the system for commercialization hence these calcualtions are performed and determined by a detailed energy analysis for conventional methods and hydrate based desalaintion. It focuses mainly on the minimization of energy usage and the water-energy-nexus of conventional and as well as gas hydrate technology. © 2022 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. %Z cited By 0
