Recycling brackish water and sea water

Resource Equipment Rentals is keen to conserve resources and protect the environment. This is why it has established Reverse Osmosis Australia as a separate entity to focus on recycling brackish water and sea water. The process of reverse osmosis is environmentally friendly in several ways, as it:

  • Recycles impure water
  • Eliminates the need to transport potable water to remote mining sites
  • Uses brackish water which would otherwise have to be disposed of

Converting brackish or sea water into pure water

The Oxford Dictionary defines osmosis as “the passage of a solvent through a semi-permeable partition into a more concentrated solution”. Reverse osmosis is a prudent, efficient and economical way to convert freely available brackish water and sea water into pure water.

It is a separation process that uses pressure to force water through a membrane that retains the impurities or salt on one side and allows the pure water to pass to the other side. This process requires a high pressure to be exerted on the membrane, usually 2bar–17 bar (30psi –250 psi) for brackish water and 40bar–70bar (600psi–1,000psi) for sea water.
