A typical seawater reverse osmosis operating pressure is about 55\u201370 bar<\/strong>, or roughly 800\u20131,015 psi. That range is a practical engineering reference, not a fixed setpoint. Actual SWRO feed pressure depends on seawater salinity, temperature, membrane permeability, recovery rate, membrane age, feed-channel pressure loss, permeate backpressure, and the product-water target. A 60-bar system may be perfectly reasonable under one design condition and inadequate under another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For equipment selection, I\u2019d treat 55\u201370 bar as the normal conversation range for conventional first-pass seawater RO, then calculate the required pressure from the actual feed analysis and membrane design. The most expensive mistake is not choosing 60 instead of 65 bar. It is designing the pump, pressure vessels, energy-recovery device, piping, controls, and pretreatment around an assumed pressure without defining the conditions that produced it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
