Expert is a recognized international, US-based international water desalination and membrane technology applications, engineering consulting and training expert, with 39 years of hands-on plant experience, technical expertise, and industrial innovation. He provides expert consulting, innovative and SMART but field-proven plant solutions in real time and training on practical/plant experience in membrane technologies, processes and plants (Membrane desalination: Reverse Osmosis - RO and Nanofiltration - NF; Membrane Filtration: Ultrafiltration - UF and Microfiltration - MF).

Areas of extensive expertise include pre-treatment and membrane systems evaluation (operational, energy, performance, and cost-efficiency), design, operational and performance monitoring, evaluation, optimization, troubleshooting, upgrades, process, and product pilot testing.

Expert provides customized medium level to advanced specialized membrane-based water desalination/ filtration and membrane technology applications training courses and workshops, either in the classroom setting, plant sites, and customized seminars and workshops for organization's personnel.

He innovated, developed, and markets the world's only real-time SilentAlarm SMART technology and software systems capable of detecting, measuring, and monitoring early development of membrane fouling and scaling as well as optimizing RO/UF plants operational efficiency, performance, and cost. The technology is a critical part of water utility digital transformation as it provides remote, real-time, and dynamic monitoring and analytics for optimizing plant operation and performance efficiency and costs.

Evaluation/assessment, monitoring, auditing, troubleshooting, on-site membrane diagnostic autopsy, and optimization of the operational efficiency, performance, and cost-effectiveness of membrane-based water desalination and filtration plants such a reverse osmosis (RO), ultrafiltration (UF), and others. Examples of recent consulting projects:

1. A long-term consulting with a company that developed and patented an innovative new low-energy desalination device, providing technical and business support on testing and bringing the new device to the seawater desalination market worldwide, especially in the Middle East.

2. A consulting assignment to assist a California real estate developer in designing energy and cost-effective RO plant, and providing technical support to help permit the new project with 18 local, state, and federal regulatory agencies.

3. A long-term assignment to provide technical support to a major international consulting conglomerate conducting a high-level feasibility study for its governmental client who requires assistance in developing a 500 billion dollar project including state-of-the-art and innovative environmentally-friendly desalination technologies for proving both temporary as well as permanent potable and agricultural water supplies over the next five years.
