Opportunities of Reducing the Energy Consumption of Seawater Reverse Osmosis Desalination by Exploiting Salinity Gradients

This work presents a performance assessment of three seawater reverse osmosis—pressure-retarded osmosis (SWRO-PRO) hybrid schemes for energy consumption reduction in seawater desalination applications by using an external low salinity water source. For comparison purposes, another arrangement based...
