Seawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) Potable Water Guide & Calculator
How do you size a potable seawater (salt water) reverse osmosis drinking water desalinization system? Because drinking water sources are subject to contamination, sizing and designing a seawater reverse osmosis drinking water system is not a straight forward process. Many variables exist that are beyond the scope of the seawater reverse osmosis potable water guide & calculator below.
These calculations give you fast estimates for general sizing, design, and footprints of SWRO potable water systems. Desalinization RO feed water chemistry, pressure, temperature and process feed flow rate are all variables that have effects on seawater reverse osmosis system sizing, which are not considered here. Other calculators for specialized industrial, ultrapure reverse osmosis systems can be found here:
