Popis: Water represents the essence of life on earth, so we must preserve and use responsibly this given resource. For many years, water treatment has been a field of continuous development. At the same time, new materials and techniques are being developed for one of the most important methods in water treatment: Reverse Osmosis (RO). Actual technology in this domain provided us with good know-how to reverse osmosis systems creation, simulation, and validation of the simulation results. Our duty is to bring value to this heritage with new specific cases where the known techniques will be used to create efficient models for water treatment by reverse osmosis. Reverse osmosis is mainly a method for seawater desalination which started to be used more often in industrial applications for water and other product treatment. The focus of this study is to design and simulate a reverse osmosis system with the help of Q+ Projection software v3.1 for a 10 m3/h well water flow by using different types of membranes, in order to select an appropriate membrane which will provide the best parameters for permeate water. Permeate water resulted after reverse osmosis treatment will be used as process water for spirit drinks production.
