Energy Recovery Inc Enhances Desalination Industry’s Most Efficient, Reliable Energy Recovery Devices
September 07 2011 - 7:00AM
Business Wire
Energy Recovery Inc (NASDAQ:ERII), a leader in the design and
development of energy recovery devices for desalination and other
industrial processes, today introduced enhancements to its
industry-leading PX Pressure Exchanger™ (PX™) technology for
seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) systems, including a 97.2 percent
efficiency guarantee. The introduction for the PX-Q300 underscores
ERI’s ongoing commitment to ensuring that SWRO facilities are free
from any costly, unplanned downtime and that their desalination
processes use the best economic solution available.
The PX-Q300 device strengthens the efficiency and durability of
previous ERI PX energy recovery devices, ensuring an
industry-leading uptime of 99.8 percent and guaranteeing high
efficiencies at no less than 97.2 percent. Additionally, all ERI PX
devices are designed for a lifetime of more than 25 years, which
when coupled with the PX devices’ market-leading uptime, saves
customers millions of dollars through energy reductions and zero
unplanned downtime.
The new PX-Q300 device also offers a new and improved feature
with a decrease in sound levels to less than 81 decibels–for much
quieter operations.
“Even one day of unplanned downtime per month can cost a
facility as much as $6.8 million a year over the lifetime of the
plant. Many plants experience weeks of unplanned downtime each year
due to the use of inferior technologies. To avoid these
unproductive occurrences and eliminate the crippling costs
associated with downtime, ERI customers rely on PX technology to
insure 99.8 percent uptime,” said Tom Rooney, chief executive
officer, ERI. “ERI PX devices have set the industry standard in
design for greater performance and leading efficiencies, which mean
greater savings and less worries for our customers who strive to
produce drinking water of the highest quality at the lowest cost to
consumers.”
ERI’s technology is currently in use in many of the world’s
largest desalination plants, helping to save more than $700 million
per year in energy costs alone.
