Cyprus: Nirosoft selects ERI PXs for Limassol desalination

Energy Recovery Inc, a company focused on the design and development of energy recovery devices for desalination, announced that its PX Pressure Exchanger (PX) energy recovery devices will be implemented at the seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plant currently under construction in Limassol, Cyprus by Nirosoft Industries, a solutions provider of water and wastewater treatment systems.

The Company said the facility will provide approximately 50,000 cubic meters (10.5 million gallons) of fresh drinking water to 120,000 people a day.

According to a release, Nirosoft selected Energy Recovery's PX-260 PX Pressure Exchanger energy recovery devices for the Cyprus desalination plant to greatly curb energy usage and operational costs at the Limassol facility. Cyprus hopes to fully meet its water needs through desalination by 2011. In addition to the Limassol facility, the PX devices are in desalination plants throughout the country, helping deliver more than 140,000 cubic meters (37 million gallons) per day to the region.
