Please Note:
Pass feed flow (1000 gpm) + blend permeate (100 gpm) = system feed flow (1100 gpm)
Pass perm flow (750 gpm) + blend permeate (100 gpm) = system perm flow (850 gpm)
System recovery (%) = system perm flow / system feed flow x 100%

Example of Pass 2 Concentrate Recycle to Pass 1 Feed
Please Note:
Pass 1 feed flow shown (1100 gpm) includes the pass 2 conc. to pass 1 feed stream (50 gpm)
Pass 1 feed flow (1100 gpm) = system feed flow (1050 gpm) + pass conc. to pass 1 feed (50 gpm)
System feed flow (1050 gpm) = pass 1 feed flow (1100 gpm) pass 2 conc. to pass 1 feed (50 gpm)
