Claims6
(canceled)
A method of operating a reverse osmosis plant, the method comprising the steps of:
- providing the reverse osmosis plant having hydrodynamic cavitatic unit and a downstream reverse osmosis unit;
- pressurizing a nonpotable water portion of the hydrodynamic cavitatic unit to a pressure between 75 pounds per square inch and 100 pounds per square inch;
- cavitating the nonpotable water with the hydrodynamic cavitatic unit;
- pressurizing the nonpotable water located upstream of a membrane of the post reverse osmosis unit to a pressure above 200 pounds per square inch so that minerals in the nonpotable water forms as undissolved solids to mitigate fouling of a membrane of the reverse osmosis unit;
- flowing the nonpotable water that has been pressurized above 200 pounds per square inch through a membrane of the post reverse osmosis unit to produce potable water.
