طرح ملی لیبی برای حل مشکل کمبود آب قسمت IA :پروژه بزرگ رودخانه انسان ساخته (GMMR) - هزینه های سرمایه به عنوان ارزش غرق شده

Libyan National Plan (LNP) to resolve the water shortage problem will be illustrated through a quartet of a series of papers. The first series of papers (I) will deal with GMMR supplied from rich groundwater reservoirs located in the southern desert regions, and will be composed of two papers. This paper (Ia) will conduct the cost analysis study by treating capital costs as sunk value, without interest rates. The second paper (Ib) will consider interest rates on capital costs and evaluate their influence on the cost analysis study. The second series of papers (II) will be dealing with desalination projects in the country. It represents a desalination river supplied by desalination plants located in the northern coastal regions, which is the longest in the Mediterranean. The third series of papers (III) will evaluate miscellaneous means of supplying water from outer regions such as utilization of rainfall waters by modern means; exporting water from rich EuroMed regions, north of Libya and rich African regions, south of Libya. Then, the following papers will concentrate on building the strategic plan to resolve the water shortage problem conducting comparative comprehensive feasibility studies on the different means.
