Wave energy conversion device for desalination, ETC

An impulse-type "wave motor" employs a seabed-mounted or supported structure mounting a wave energy absorbing panel on a hinged lever arm for reciprocation motion to obtain optimal absorption of wave energy from wave motion in the sea. For deepwater wavelengths of L, the panel is optimally positioned in a region within L / 2 depth from the sea surface. The panel motion is coupled by a connecting rod to a fluid pump which generates a high-pressure fluid output that may be used to drive a reverse osmosis desalination unit or to produce other useful work. Seawater or brackish water may be desalinated through reverse osmosis membranes to produce water quality for consumption, agricultural, or other uses. The submerged operating environment of the device in a region of one-half the design wavelength provides the maximum available energy flux and forced oscillations. The pump may be of the positive-displacement piston type, plunger type, or multi-staging driver type, or a variable volume pump.

Fully integrated NF-thermal seawater desalination process and equipment

An optimal thermal seawater desalination process is disclosed, which combines two or more substantially different water pretreatment processes in a unique manner and in a special configuration, hereto unknown to prior desalination arts, to produce a high yield of high quality fresh water, including potable water. In this process a two stage NF membrane pretreatment unit (NF2) with an energy recovery turbo charger (TC) device in between the stages or equipped with an energy recovery pressure exchanger (PX) is synergistically combined with at least one thermal desalination unit to form a dual hybrid of NF2-Thermal (FIG. 4 ), or alternatively the two stage NF2 unit is synergistically combined with a two stage SWRO unit (SWRO2) with an energy recovery TC in between the stages or combined with one stage SWRO (SWRO1) equipped with an energy recovery TC or PX system and the reject from the SWRO2 or SWRO1 unit is made make-up to a thermal unit to form a tri-hybrid of NF2-SWRO2 reject-Thermal (FIG. 5 ). In both the cases of di- or trihybrids the thermal unit is equivalent to a multistage flash distillation (MSFD) or multieffect distillation (MED) or vapor compression distillation (VCD) or thermal reheat (RH) evaporator. Typically a process of this invention using the two stage NF2 initial pretreatment step will perform a semi-desalination step by reducing feed TDS by about 35 to 50%, but most important, especially to the thermal seawater desalination process, it removes the water recovery limiting, scale forming hardness ions of Ca++ and Mg++ by better than 80% and their covalent anions of sulfate to better than 95% and bicarbonate to about 65%. The removal of scale forming hardness ions, especially SO4=, and bicarbonates allowed for the operation of thermal unit in the above hybrids at top brine temperature (TBT) much greater than its present TBT limit by the singular conventional process of 120° C. for MSFD and operation of MED or VCD or RH unit at TBT much higher than their present TBT limit of 65-70° C., with many advantages gained by this process over prior art sweater desalination processes. The process of this invention exceeds all prior thermal seawater desalination arts in efficiency, including water yield, product water recovery ratio and unit water cost as well as in energy consumption per unit product which is equivalent or less than other efficient prior art seawater thermal desalination processes. By this process, an NF product recovery ratio of 75 and 80% or better is achieved from the high salinity Gulf sea (TDS≈45,000 ppm) and about an equal product recovery ratio is also obtained from the SWRO or thermal unit when it is operated on NF product for a total water recovery ratio in excess of 52% for seawater

Differential energy recovery device and method for seawater desalination system

The invention discloses a differential energy recovery device and a method for a seawater desalination system. The differential energy recovery device comprises two hydraulic cylinders connected in parallel. A piston divides each hydraulic cylinder into two cavities. The piston is fixedly connected with a piston rod. A low-pressure raw water inlet is connected with two left cavities through liquid inlet valves. The left cavities are connected with a high-pressure raw water outlet through liquid drain valves. Two right cavities are connected with reversing valves. The reversing valves are connected with a high-pressure concentrated water inlet and are connected with a low-pressure concentrated drain outlet. The method is that high-pressure concentrated water coming from a reverse osmosis device is enabled to enter the right cavities of the two hydraulic cylinders through the reversing valves, and low-pressure raw water in the left cavities is pushed and pressurized to enter the reverse osmosis device. Since the direct pressurization principle of the hydraulic cylinders is used for the special design, one-time energy conversion is adopted and the pressure of high-pressure seawater after pressure exchange is larger than the pressure of concentrated saline water, the invention has the advantages that the pressurizing pumps are not required for pressurization once more, the energy conversion efficiency is high, the operating cost is saved and the energy consumption of the reverse osmosis system is further reduced.
