True batch reverse osmosis prototype: model validation and energy savings
In this study, we tested a bench-scale prototype of a true batch reverse osmosis (RO) system using a flexible bladder and a 2.5 in. (6.4cm) spiral wound membrane element. In theory, batch RO systems can achieve the lowest practical energy consumption by varying feed pressure over time. However, th...
