Brackish Water Reverse Osmosis (BWRO) Systems: 2025 Ultimate Guide
Why BWRO is Ideal for Brackish Water Treatment?
✔ Lower Energy Consumption - 1.5-2.5 kWh/m³ vs 3-4 kWh/m³ for SWRO
✔ Higher Recovery Rates - 65-85% water efficiency
✔ Compact Modular Design - 50% smaller footprint than traditional systems
✔ Wider Applications - Handles 1,000-10,000 ppm TDS
Industry Insight: BWRO market growing at 9.2% CAGR due to groundwater depletion (GWI 2024)
3 Key BWRO Configurations
1. Single-Stage BWRO
• Best For: 1,000-5,000 ppm feed water
• Salt Rejection: 90-95%
• Pressure: 15-25 bar
2. Two-Pass BWRO
• Output Quality: <100 ppm TDS
• Features:
Interstage pH adjustment
Second pass booster pump
3. Hybrid NF-RO Systems
✔ Selective ion removal
✔ 30% lower energy than RO-only
✔ Ideal for high sulfate/fluoride waters
