The facilities are for both municipal and industrial applications and the orders are expected to be fulfilled by Q4 2023.

WD News: Energy Recovery has announced a collection of contracts totaling nearly $17 million to supply PX® Pressure Exchanger® energy recovery devices for desalination facilities in the Gulf region.

These PX devices are expected to prevent over 400,000 metric tons of carbon emissions from entering the atmosphere each year, the equivalent of removing over 85,000 passenger cars from the road each year.

These contracts include a municipal desalination facility that will produce over 500,000 cubic metres per day (132 million gallons) in a significantly water-stressed region. By adopting seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination technology, including hundreds of PX devices, these facilities will contribute to ongoing efforts in the region to reduce the cost of water.

The PX can reduce energy consumption in SWRO desalination by as much as 60%.
