Abstract
A reverse osmosis system includes a first pretreatment system and a fluid source located below a reservoir. A first membrane housing has a reverse osmosis membrane therein. A first turbocharger includes a first pump portion and a first turbine portion. The first pump portion receives feed fluid from the first pretreatment system, pressurizing the feed fluid and communicates the feed fluid to the feed fluid inlet. The first turbine portion receives brine fluid from the brine outlet. The system further includes a second and third turbocharger. A second turbine portion and the third turbine portion receive brine fluid from the first turbine portion. Second feed fluid is communicated through a booster pump, a second pretreatment system, and second pump portion to increase a pressure of the second feed fluid. The second feed fluid is communicated to the third pump portion which communicates the pressurized second feed fluid to the first pump portion.
