RO Efficiency Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the RO Efficiency.
Ero = RW / TW *100
- Where Ero is the RO Efficiency (%)
- RW is the RO Water (gallons)
- TW is the total water (gallons)
How to Calculate RO Efficiency?
The following two example problems outline how to calculate the RO Efficiency.
Example Problem #1:
- First, determine the RO Water (gallons). In this example, the RO Water (gallons) is given as 300.
- Next, determine the total water (gallons). For this problem, the total water (gallons) is given as 600.
- Finally, calculate the RO Efficiency using the equation above:
Ero = RW / TW *100
Inserting the values from above and solving the equation:
Ero = 300 /600 *100 = 50 (%)
Example Problem #2:
Using the same process as above, first define the variables required by the formula. In this case, these values are:
RO Water (gallons) = 500
total water (gallons) = 750
Entering these values yields:
Ero = 500 / 750 *100 = 66.667 (%)
