Abstract

The aim of this study is focused on the effi ciency of groundwater treatment by reverse osmosis (RO). The treated water, which is used for beverage industry, must be according with the standard qualities. In this fact, two reverse osmosis modes were studied. The fi rst one without brine recycling, and the second one with partial brine recycling (50%). The treatment is followed by the measurement of the water permeate fl ow and the treated water conductivity. The results showed that the second mode carry to membrane fouling. However, in spite of this disadvantage, the second mode compared to the fi rst one, allow to decrease the water consumption by approximately 25% in a year.
