  • Low Energy Ejector Desalination System
    Publication number: 20250145499
    Abstract: Systems and methods for treating a raw wastewater feed stream using a low energy ejector, which works as a heat pump to increase the pressure and temperature of a two-phase distillate stream used, in part, to heat the raw wastewater feed stream. The systems and methods utilize heat from a liquid distillate stream and a concentrated liquid wastewater stream to pre-heat the raw wastewater feed stream and produce a liquid distillate product stream.
    Type: Application
    Filed: January 7, 2025
    Publication date: May 8, 2025
    Applicant: Bechtel Energy Technologies & Solutions, Inc.
    Inventors: Jorge T. Aguinaldo, Joseph P. Kanzleiter, David Ladd, Saurabh S. Tonapi, Baki E. Goktepe, Mukesh K. Shah
