  • Discover the intriguing process of reverse osmosis!
    Reverse osmosis (RO) forces water, at high pressure, through thousands of pressure vessels that contain semi-permeable membranes to remove salt, particles and other minerals.

    I feel like people misunderstand the summarizing statement at the end. 82% of the original water source becomes the purified water. That means 18% of the original water source is contaminated and successfully separated from the now purified water. There is an 82% yield.

      Yeah, only engineering students know this. Not only that there will be water loss, but there will be pressure drop and/or loss too, since there's an obvious tight membrane screening mechanism involved which will decrease the flowrate.

    Thank you for sharing this. I have been really interested in Reverse Osmosis since I got to know about AAA Water Systems. They have amazing water filtration service and Reverse Osmosis is also a procedure they use.

    Thanks a lot it is simple and clear explain, I am working as engineer at the RO plant and I have been so intersted for water treatment process.

    reverse osmosis works by forcing water
    00:10
    through a special plastic membrane sheet
    00:12
    to remove compounds such as salts
    00:14
    organic compounds microorganisms viruses
    00:18
    and pharmaceuticals roles of membrane
    00:21
    sheets are wound into cylinder shaped
    00:23
    elements there are several elements
    00:25
    inside each long pressure vessel as
    00:28
    water enters the vessel it flows over
    00:31
    the membrane surface as it moves from
    00:33
    one end of the vessel to the other the
    00:35
    membrane layer is extremely thin it
    00:38
    allows water to pass through or permeate
    00:40
    while preventing other compounds from
    00:43
    passing through membranes remove
    00:45
    molecules based on their size shape and
    00:48
    charge generally contaminants larger
    00:51
    than water molecules will not pass
    00:53
    through including most chemical
    00:55
    contaminants and all microorganisms such
    00:58
    as viruses and bacteria to streams of
    01:01
    water are produced pure clean water or

    01:06
    sheets and departed through the membrane
    01:08
    layers to the inside core tube water
    01:11
    that does not permeate becomes more
    01:13
    highly concentrated with salts and other
    01:15
    substances this water is called
    01:18
    concentrate for pure permeate water
    01:20
    flows out the core tube and one end of
    01:23
    the pressure vessel and the concentrate
    01:25
    water flows out another outlet the
    01:27
    concentrate water can then flow into
    01:29
    other pressure vessels for the same
    01:31
    process to happen again so even more
    01:34
    pure permeate water can be recovered
    01:36
    about 82 percent of all the source of
    01:40
    water becomes purified wate

      Waste water comes from the factory itself. Instead of get rid of the used water by the factory (waste water), RO unit can purify it. It’s a recycle process

    This practical one is totally different from what we saw firstly about RO, a tank with membrane in the middle and giving pressure on side pushing the pure water to the other side. Actually the only energy consumption is from the water pump.

    Cold Steam the efficient way to use heat sources to produce electricity and or distilled water explained from basic concept to employment.
    Two open containers one full of water the other empty connect them at the bottom and water will reach an equilibrium 50 50. If one is sealed except for the connection the other will remain empty because of the vacuum created in the sealed container.
    Gravity will overcome this vacuum if the containers are taller than 30 feet.
    If the tanks are 40 feet tall the tanks will reach an equilibrium of water levels at 30 feet leaving ten feet of hard vacuum in the sealed tank. This makes a vacuum pump set we need two of them if we were going to distill water as the cold side open tank is used to collect the distilled water from it as the continuous input of water needs to go somewhere.
    Each sealed tank has four valves three at the top two of those on opposite sides (B&C) one at the very top (D) one at the bottom on the side (A), water-based vacuum pump operations are, Close bottom tank valve A and top tank valve C. Open top tank valve D. Fill sealed tank through top side valve B. Close valve B and D when full. Open bottom valve A.
    This primes the system to let the warm water in that will vaporize and run through the system when you partially reopen valve B (to control flow rate) and open valve C to its fullest.
    For only power generation need one pump set and one vacuum tank so we can have a Hot side and a Cold side one to boil the water and one to have the low pressure/vacuum to draw the steam in through the turbine then the cooling coils then to the tank.
    At the bottom of the cold side, tank is a return pipe with the one way valve to the heat source the one-way valve prevents expansion back to the cold side and as the hot side vacuum chamber is the only outlet for the expanding water and it is drawn by the vacuum the cycle proceeds.
    You can combine the two and get power generation and distilled water keeping the return line from the power generation system will let you switch if you don't need distilled water on a continuous basis in large quantities.
    I am going to make one feel free to make one as well it is open source.

    Where does the UV LIGHT play a role in water Purification processing?

    • @Alpha-kl4jo
      @Alpha-kl4jo 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      it does nothing for RO system. As the video stated, the membrane already removes bacteria and virus from the source water.
      Some RO machine uses UV light as a safety net just in case the membrane failed to purify the water. But then I would worry other potential dangerous impurities. UV can't break that out. Activated carbon might do. Still, daily maintenance and decommisioning the membrane when it reached its service life will be wiser than only relying on UV. Doing both? might even be better

    • @ShaferHart
      @ShaferHart 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I don't think that's what she meant. It means that of all the water you pump through the system initially only 82% of it gets purified while the remaining 18% gets discarded as "waste water". You can pump that "waste water" through it again and get more purified water, 82% of that 18% and so on.
