What you'll learn by attending:

• Identify desali­na­tion tech­nolo­gies
• Understand how reverse osmosis works
• Identify reverse osmosis appli­ca­tions
• Understand design consid­er­a­tions for BWRO and SWRO

Matthew Trzcinski is a desali­na­tion discipline leader with an impressive career spanning nearly three decades, special­iz­ing in applying membrane tech­nolo­gies to water treatment processes across the municipal, industrial, and commercial sectors. He has contributed to multiple significant projects such as the Appomattox Gulf of Mexico Semi-Submersible Deep-Water project, phases 1 and 2 of the Newark Desali­na­tion Facility in Newark, California, and the Kay Bailey Hutchison Desali­na­tion Facility in El Paso, Texas, which is currently the largest inland desali­na­tion plant in the U.S. 

Christian Sanders is a water treatment specialist with 18 years experience and has played a lead role on the design and commis­sion­ing of several major membrane water treatment projects, both domes­ti­cally and overseas. He has also spearheaded the piloting efforts for several large-scale treatment inves­ti­ga­tions covering seawater desali­na­tion, water reuse, as well as surface water treatment appli­ca­tions.

Rubén Muñoz has more than 17 years of profes­sional experience in engineering and desali­na­tion projects. His experience includes large seawater reverse osmosis desali­na­tion plants with capacities ranging from 20 MGD up to 228 MGD. He has experience in all phase of the project cycles of desali­na­tion plants from early stages of concep­tu­al­iza­tion, permitting and pilot testing, bidding, contract negotiation and awarding, and project delivery including engineering, commis­sion­ing, start up, performance test and operational opti­miza­tion.
