This paper discusses this newly developed energy recovery device as it is applied at the Southmost facility. Further, the use of this device in water treatment applications other that reverse osmosis such as nanofiltration and pressure MF/UF systems is presented....

Discussion of Volume Insert Pumps for seawater desalination service. Combination of devices to improve efficiencies and reduce energy consumption....

This paper review's the application and design engineering process used for AVS pumps and AT Turbochargers and analyze operating experience with the AT Hydraulic Turbocharger and AVS pumps since their introduction in 2004 in a number of SWRO plants. The results of performance testing of the AVS pump is also discussed....

This presentation discusses available energy recovery devices for reverse osmosis desalination systems and compares and contrasts different types of energy recovery devices including centrifugal and positive displacement energy recovery devices...

Turbo charger efficiencies have increased over the last decade through technology optimization. Higher rotating speeds can increase efficiency. New turbocharger showed no significant geometry differences between new and old turbochargers; however the new turbocharger showed a 5.2% higher efficiency. The increase in turbocharger efficiency has no dr...
