Standard BWRO technology has hardly changed for decades and can’t deliver high recovery due to:
- Mineral and organic fouling
- Bio fouling
- Scaling
- Low recovery
- Complicated two or three stage structure with inter-stage boosters.
- High power consumption
In this webinar, Boris Liberman will explain how IDE’s new Pulse Flow RO technologies solves these challenges and revolutionizes the plant recovery rate using a range of techniques:
1. Dead-end 100% recovery. No residual brine discharge followed by short, intensive brine-flush.
2. Membrane cleaning regime featuring micro-pressure strokes.
3. Forward osmosis backwash.
