Sea water can be desalinated using a reverse osmosis cell. there are two output streams from the cell i. e. the product (desalinated sea water) and a brine containing an increased amount of sea salt. part of the brine is recycled and mixed with the fresh sea water and the other part is removed as waste. sea water can be considered consisting of water and three weight percent salt. the requirement for the salinity of the product (desalinated water) is 400 parts per million (ppm) salt maximum. the brine waste should not contain more than 5.8% w/w salt. the operating conditions for the reverse osmosis cell include maximum of 4% w/w salt. (a) draw a flow diagram of the desalination process with all material streams and their components. [3 marks] for 1000 l sea water h, calculate the: (1) flow rate of the waste brine. (i) flow rate of the desalinated water. (iii) ratio brine-recycle. [4 marks] [4 marks] [7 marks] assume the density of both the salt water and desalinated water is equal to the density of water i. e. 1 l = 1 kg. (c) what flow rate of sea water is required to produce a total of 30 bottles of 1 l and 48 bottles of 0.33 l of desalinated water per minute?

The diagram below shows a cell placed in a solution.a cell is shown placed inside a beaker. it is labeled cell. the solution inside the beaker is labeled 40% salt solution and the solution inside the cell is labeled 20% salt solution.only water is allowed to move in and out of the cell. what will most likely happen to the cell? it will expand as water moves out of it. it will shrink as water moves out of it.it will expand as water moves into it. it will shrink as water moves into it.
