Energy Recovery to Supply Devices for Bahamas Desalination Plant

Consolidated Water has selected Energy Recovery to supply desalination devices as part of a major expansion of the Bahamas Water and Sewerage Corporation’s Blue Hills large-scale seawater reverse osmosis project.

Energy Recovery will supply its PX Pressure Exchanger devices and ERIAquaBold pumps to reduce the energy and costs required to produce drinking water on the island of New Providence, Bahamas.

The expanded Blue Hills desalination plant will provide 4.9 million gallons of clean, safe and affordable drinking water per day to the island’s residents.

Consolidated Water overseas operations vice-president Ramjeet Jerrybandan said Energy Recovery’s devices reliably reduce energy consumption, costs and the environmental impact generated by desalination without the need for regular maintenance or a large stock of spare parts.
