Osmosis process is the tendency of water to flow through semi-permeable membrane into a more concentrated solution
Reverse osmosis is a form of filtration in which the filter is a semi-permeable membrane that allows water to pass through, but not salt.

The osmotic pressure of typical seawater is around 26 bar, and this is the pressure that the pump must overcome in order to reverse the flow . In practice , in order to achieve a generous flow of freshwater, a significantly higher pressure as 50-80 bar is used.Concentrated

Advantages: 1 Half of the energy needed by the thermal process. 2 Modularity of reverse osmosis units, Simplicity of operation3 Lower environment impact. Indeed, reverse osmosis process accounted for 59% of contracted desalination capacity as of September 2008, having grown at a rate of 17% per year since 1990.
Why SWRO
能量回收装置
4/11
Electricity consumption is a main cost of SWRO. The RO reject stream contains most of the energy supplied to the seawater feed by the high pressure pump. Recovery of this energy and its utilization reduce the overall energy demand of SWRO.

Francis turbine
1 Energy recovery turbine (ERT) with Pelton wheels.2 Turbocharger, a turbine driven centrifugal pump, mostly applied.3 Pressure exchanger(PX),using a rotating ceramic rotor and allows the feed and concentrate to have direct contact.4 Dual work exchanger energy recovery(DWEER), an isobaric device that used a piston and valves to separate seawater feed and the concentrated return.
