Energy Recovery

Energy Recovery is a global leader in energy efficiency technology for industrial fluid processes. Their flagship invention, the PX® Pressure Exchanger, is a legendary device in the desalination industry. Traditionally, pushing water through reverse osmosis membranes required massive pumps and electricity. Energy Recovery’s device captures the high-pressure waste energy from the reject stream (brine) and transfers it to the incoming seawater with up to 98% efficiency. This technology saves desalination plants billions of dollars in electricity costs and prevents millions of tons of CO2 emissions annually.
