    Abstract: The retrofit technology utilizes pressurized brine of convention RO to feed a Closed Circuit Desalination (CCD) unit; wherein, further desalination takes place to a desired recovery level. The application exemplified in FIG. 4 is of a retrofit unit comprising a Booster Pump (BP2) for raising pressure of inlet feed; a Circulation Pump (CP) for creating cross flow over membranes (E) in the pressure vessel (M), thereby enable efficient RO desalination; an Actuated Valve (AV) in line with a partially open Manual Valve (MV) to enable periodic replacement of high salinity concentrates with fresh feed without stopping desalination; No Return (NR) valve means to control the direction of flow in the system; and monitoring means such as of electric conductivity (CM) and flow (FM). Periodic replacement of high salinity concentrates by fresh feed initiated at desired high system electric conductivity and terminated at a desired low system electric conductivity, while desalination continued.

    Abstract: Pressurized hydraulic flow created in wind farms with wind driven pumps (wind-pumps) used for rated electric power production by means of hydraulic motors, or turbines, of constant speed and variable torque which actuate alternately and/or simultaneously rated electric generators as function of wind power availability. Use of positive displacement pumps driven by rotors of fixed pitch blades for maximum capture of wind power enables the attainment tip-speed-ratio of rotors in the range of high power coefficient by means of the pressurized hydraulic flow of the wind farms. Another application of wind farms with wind driven pumps is for the creation of variable hydraulic flow of fixed pressure as function wind power availability which may be used for water elevation as well as for the desalination of salt water solutions by reverse osmosis.
