- Technology · TEC-000001Reverse osmosisA pressure-driven membrane process that forces water through a dense, semi-permeable membrane against its osmotic pressure, retaining typically more than 99% of dissolved salts.Open
- Process · PRC-000002RO operation and performance normalizationRunning pressure vessels at a set recovery and flux, and normalizing permeate flow, salt passage and differential pressure to standard temperature and pressure so that membrane condition can be seen through changing feed conditions.Open
