Abstract	There are few energy recovery devices (ERD) available on the market for small reverse osmosis units (RO). With reference to small units, installations have been considered which could be driven easily by a photovoltaic (PV) generator with an output of 200 litres up to 10 m3 desalinated water per day [1-14] . In this paper, a systematic analysis for typical reverse osmosis concepts is presented which allows better understanding of the energy demand of small RO processes with energy recovery and which can be used as a decision tool. In contrast to publications already in existence which compare energy recovery devices [ 9,10,12,15-27], the smallest devices are considered here. These are often positive displacement devices [3,10,16,28,29]. The new method of analysis takes as a basis the same physical parameters for all RO concepts, starting with the calculation of the osmotic pressure. Assumptions by an expert for possible operating parameters (recovery ratio, the feed and the concentrate pressure), known as.
