Energy Recovery Devices
Energy recovery devices (ERDs) capture hydraulic energy from the high-pressure brine reject stream of a seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) system and transfer it back to the membrane feed, reducing the demand on the high-pressure pump. Pressure-exchanger ERDs can recover a large share of the energy that would otherwise be lost across the membrane array.
ForeverPure supplies ERI PX pressure exchangers and FEDCO HPB hydraulic turbochargers for commercial and industrial desalination plants. Select an energy recovery device by feed flow rate, system recovery, and array size. For help matching an ERD to your SWRO train, request a quote and our team will assist with sizing.
