SUEZ and Salinity Solutions launch industrial pilot for hybrid batch reverse osmosis

This article was originally posted on Chemical Engineering Online.
Summary
SUEZ and U.K.-based Salinity Solutions have launched the first Hybrid Batch Reverse Osmosis (HBRO) pilot dedicated to municipal wastewater reuse at the Béziers wastewater treatment plant in southern France. The pilot combines Salinity Solutions’ HyBatch technology with SUEZ’s wastewater treatment expertise to target 90–95% water recovery for reuse.

What results from this pilot—such as achieved water quality, energy use, fouling and brine management, and overall cost—would most convince you that HBRO is ready for wider municipal deployment?

90 - 95% recovery on municipal effluent is impressive, but how are you managing silica and CaSO4 at those concentrations - antiscalant alone, or is there upstream softening/seeded crystallization? How does the batch profile play with plant ops: are you buffering permeate to keep a steady flow to reuse users, and what does CIP frequency look like vs continuous RO? Any data on specific energy at those recoveries compared to a well-tuned two-stage RO?
