Danfoss is dedicated to engineering high-pressure pump solutions that save energy today and enable a more sustainable tomorrow. Our blog explores issues related to energy and cost efficiency in seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO). We hope that you will discover insights in these blogs that will help you produce potable water with lower operating costs – and reduced CO2 emissions for all of us.
Discover new perspectives on the importance of energy-efficient SWRO to meet the world’s growing need for fresh water.
Learn how the aquaculture industry uses energy-efficient SWRO to keep salmon healthy.
Read how valuable chemicals can be extracted from brine – including SWRO reject streams – and how brine mining could change the SWRO industry.
Learn how membrane-based processes such as RO and NF can significantly improve the energy efficiency of ZLD and MLD.
Norwater’s modular SWRO systems are tailored for land-based aquaculture, combining compact design with oil-free, energy-efficient operation. With Danfoss APP pumps and iSave ERDs at their core, the systems deliver clean, reliable water at scale for fish farms in Norway and beyond.
In Spain’s Canary Islands, DESALRO® 2.0 achieves record-low energy use of 1.794 kWh/m3 using Danfoss APP 65 pumps. Developed by the Canary Islands Institute of Technology, this modular SWRO system is designed for replication across water-scarce regions with minimal redesign.
After Cape Town’s water crisis, the V&A Waterfront invested in a new SWRO plant to ensure self-sufficiency. PROXA designed the two-train, 6,000 m³/day system using Danfoss APP pumps and iSave ERDs to deliver energy-efficient output in a compact existing space.
Hyrec has pioneered a large-scale OARO brine mining plant that produces 220,000 tons of food-grade salt annually. By using Danfoss APP pumps and iSave ERDs for pre-concentration, the innovative solution optimizes energy efficiency, reduces costs, and ensures reliable operation in a remote location.
Salt Separation Services boosted capacity by 75% and significantly reduced SEC by retrofitting a luxury cruise ship’s SWRO plant with a Danfoss APP pump and iSave ERD – all in the same tight space in the ship’s engine room.
When a Spanish engineering company needed one compact, reliable, and energy-efficient SWRO solution for three separate end users, Gefico’s engineers proposed a compact, modular train design that could be both containerized and built on skids. Danfoss’s ceramic APP pumps and iSave ERDs are at the heart of the seven trains that Gefico designed and produced
