This #Kinetico #K5 #reverseosmosis is super inconsistent and is sending A LOT of reject water to drain! 🚰

"#BRPAndresBonifacio’s commanding officer Commander Paul Hechanova said the seacraft can produce 32,000 liters of clean drinking water in 24 hours from saltwater through" desalination.

The desalination machine uses a #ReverseOsmosis process, wherein salt and impurities are removed from seawater to produce drinking water." #MayonVolcano #Philippines

Upending a decades-long theory of #reverseosmosis water desalination @yale @ScienceAdvances https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/sciadv.adf8488 https://phys.org/news/2023-04-upending-decades-long-theory-reverse-osmosis.html

Volatile Organic Compounds, or VOCs, are organic chemicals that have extremely low boiling points, causing them to become gasses and vapors very easily in their surroundings. VOCs are used to produce many common household products so our exposure to the chemicals is almost certain.

#Microfiltrationmembranes are thin, porous filters that are used to separate particles and molecules of different sizes. They are commonly used in the food and beverage industry to remove suspended solids, algae, bacteria, and other microorganisms. They are also used in industrial processes such as #reverseosmosis, ultrafiltration, cross-flow filtration, and #nanofiltration.

Researchers find that #reverseosmosis can be 40% more efficient through simulation.

Researchers also created a simplified equation to allow manufacturers with access to high-performance computing to optimize their designs.

@SkepticalEye Reverse osmosis produces several gallons of wastewater for every gallon of "pure" water it produces. It's incredibly wasteful.

The bottled water companies and those who sell RO sysyems know this and don't care. They end up getting their money.
