Analysis of a Wind Driven Reverse Osmosis Desalination System: Experimental Study Using a Pressure Exchanger Energy Recovery Device

With a fast growing world population, the lack of fresh water is one of the world’s biggest future concerns. Water stress can lead to conflicts, holds back economic growth and has a major impact on human health. Nowadays, more and more countries that lack fresh water sources are using the saline water from the oceans and desalinate it to produce...

Design of an Energy Recovery Concept for a Small-scale Renewable-driven Reverse Osmosis Desalination System

The desalination industry has grown exponentially the last four decades as countries seek solutions to water scarcity caused by population growth, climate change, pollution and industrial development. All source water types included, reverse osmosis is the prevalent desalination process, accounting for more than half of the global capacity. The...
