<p>The present invention refers to a system for water desalination by reverse osmosis using as power source the energy from the sea waves as an alternative to electricity. The concept is composed of a conventional desalination unit with membrane for reverse osmosis, connected to an energy converter that is put into motion by the action of the sea waves. The system comprises three versions and can be installed in the seashore, in the marine floor in depths up to one hundred meters and also in deep waters. The desalted water can be sent with high pressure to great distances for irrigation or domestic use.</p> |
