This study addresses the complexities of shipboard desalination plants and scaling control methods in seawater distillation systems. Using advanced modeling techniques, the study examines the interaction of various parameters affecting system performance. Factors such as seawater density, thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity are considered along with scale deposition parameters such as salt concentration, scale formation rate and deposition rate. The study includes thermodynamic analysis, scale formation kinetics and heat transfer between different components of the system. The effect of salt concentration and pressure on scale deposition rate is also studied. The resulting integrated model provides insight into the optimization of desalination processes on board ships, thereby contributing to the improvement of water management strategies in offshore operations.
