Rebuttal to “Discussion of ‘Second law analysis of reverse osmosis desalination plants: An alternative design using pressure retarded osmosis’ [Energy 2011] 36: 6617–6626]”
We have had several conversations with Knutson during recent months, and we certainly agree that the one-dimensional mass exchanger model is more appropriate than the zero-dimensional model which has appeared in much of the past literature and which we also applied. We have been working on revisions...
