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...

This presentation discusses turbocharger energy recovery devices for reverse osmosis (RO) processes. Topics include general energy recovery theory, system control and optimization, operation, and equipment troubleshooting. The presentation concludes with a discussion on flux balancing and provides an energy cost evaluation that compares interstage ...

The authors of this paper will introduce a new design method which eliminates the need for replacing equipment and re-machining of the high cost components. This innovative design method allows for rapid customization of the fluid pathways so that equipment efficiency is restored with minimal downtime and cost to the operator, while maximizing effi...
