The Element Value Analysis (EVA) tool has been added to ROSA to allow for a snapshot economic comparison of different elements operating in the same system under the same operating parameters. While RO system modeling software historically provides a snapshot comparison of the performance parameters such as feed pressure and permeate quality, EVA provides an added dimension allowing the system designer to also evaluate the impact of product selection on the lifetime operational cost of the system. There are a significant number of cost factors outside of RO element selection; EVA is a comparison tool only and is not a guarantee of actual capital or operating costs.
