The invention relates to a method and means for diluting or concentrating solutions, applied to processes for the desalination of water, characterised by being carried out on the basis of a borehole (4) in permeable coastal land, where two internal wells (5, 6) are installed producing three channels that are interconnected at the bottom, by means of a membrane packet (9), disposed such that the supply flow towards the membranes and provided via the borehole (4) flows in a downward direction, generated, using the principle of communicating vessels, by the suction of a motor pump (7) installed at a shallow depth inside the well of the concentrate (5), with an ascending flow, pouring same to the marine outlet and the diluted flow (permeate) drains to the second well (6), which is hollow and at atmospheric pressure, where a motor pump (8) extracts the permeate for the use thereof. The method can be used for dilution and/or concentration with minimal energy costs, both on land and on the sea bed on a floating platform (11) or cliff.
A method for diluting or concentrating solutions preferably applied to processes for the desalination of seawater by means of reverse osmosis characterised in that it is carried out from a borehole (4) on a permeable coastal land, where, once it is developed by over-pumping, two internal wells (5 and 6) will be installed, producing three tubes which are interconnected on the bottom through a membrane packet (9), wherein the membrane packet (9) is arranged in a way that a feed flow, towards the membrane packet (9) and provided via the borehole (4), flows in a downward direction, generated because of using the principle of communicating vessels by means of the suction of a motor pump (7), which is installed at a shallow depth inside the well (5) of the concentrate with an ascending flow, pouring it to the marine outlet, and wherein a diluted flow (permeate) drains to the second well (6), which is hollow and at atmospheric pressure, where a motor pump (8) will extract it for the use thereof.
A system for diluting or concentrating solutions applied to processes for the desalination of seawater by reverse osmosis characterised in that the system comprises:
