Excuse me if I'm a bit skeptical. If you are forcing water with particles through a semi permeable membrane to remove particles that are less than 1 micron and reducing TDS by 90%, and those particles are removed in the effluent, where do the disolved solids accumulate, and how are they removed?

It would seem to me that to recirculate the effluent and eliminate its discharge, you are going to substantially reduce the life expectancy of the membrane.

This is an interesting concept but I'll let you folks use it for a few years before I buy mine.

JMHO.
