Sea water is to be desalinated by reverse osmosis using the scheme shown in Figure below. Using the data mentioned in Figure, Calculate - The rate of waste brine removal (B) - The rate of production of desalinized water [potable water] (D) - The Fraction of the brine leaving the osmosis cell that is recycled (NOTE: D stream has 500 ppm salt = 0.05%)
