Noria Water Technologies, a CalDesal Associate, a is a sensor/instrumentation and software company doing pioneering work in Reverse Osmosis (RO) membrane monitoring. The technology has its roots at UCLA, which introduced RO to the world. Traditionally, RO systems (industrial or municipal) rely on indirect means to assess RO membrane fouling. These are either measuring flow changes, conductivity, or pressure changes. Noria has developed a sensor utilizing machine vision and is using cloud-based analytics to measure and predict RO membrane fouling.
Noria Water is a recipient of a National Science Foundation (NSF) grant and are reaching out to industry experts to better understand the opportunity for improving RO membrane or plant performance.
