Improvement of the PV Reverse Osmosis Desalination Process

Objetivo

To employ the existing plant at Tremiti for the development of a new generation of PV desalination technology taking into consideration that it is of high interest for further application of photovoltaics to improve the desalination process and the plant performance.

The R&D routes to be investigated by the Coordinator are the following :

- inclusion of the latest membrane technology into the system;
- energy recovery from the high pressure fluid at the membrane outlet;
- improved power conditioning system and particular new inverters and converters, modification of the battery system;
- optimisation of the over all process and in particular the optimised feeding of the membrane system (optimised desalination pressure over time );
- conditioning of the inlet water to avoid corrosion, improvement of the over all efficiency and eliminiation of the chemical treatment of water which complicates the process at present : temperature increase of the inlet water, electrical charging.
