Abstract:The resource efficiency of a conventional domestic reverse osmosis system is low because it operates at a low water recovery and energy efficiency. Besides, the quality of permeate cannot be controlled, leading to unusual taste, which may result in adverse health effects. In this article, a new system design and operational method of a domestic reverse osmosis system have been studied analytically and experimentally. The study shows that it is possible to tune the permeate quality, and a high water recovery ca… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
