Reverse osmosis system

1. A method for sanitizing a reverse osmosis system to supply high-purity permeate, the method comprising:

supplying raw water to a feed tank and to a filter module using a raw-water inlet line having an inlet valve, the filter module comprising a semipermeable membrane and a permeate collection tube;

providing a primary circuit of the reverse osmosis system having a first pump connected to the filter module, wherein the semipermeable membrane is disposed within the primary circuit, the semipermeable membrane being coupled at a first end to a mixed-water connection of the primary circuit and at an opposed second end to a concentrate outlet line of the primary circuit, the primary circuit further comprising a bypass valve for modulating a pressure buildup in the reverse osmosis system;

providing a secondary circuit of the reverse osmosis system having a second pump and a heater, the second pump and heater being connected to the filter module, wherein the permeate collection tube is disposed within the secondary circuit, the permeate collection tube being coupled at a first end to a permeate circulation line of the secondary circuit and at an opposed second end to a permeate supply line of the secondary circuit;

separating the primary circuit from the secondary circuit using the semipermeable membrane disposed in the filter module, wherein the semipermeable membrane includes membrane pockets that are spirally arranged about the permeate collection tube such that liquid in the primary circuit which is supplied via the membrane pockets can enter into the permeate collection tube;

at least one of cleaning and disinfecting the secondary circuit of the reverse osmosis system while the raw-water inlet line is in a disconnected state and the inlet valve is in a closed state using the second pump and the heater;

wherein said at least one of cleaning and disinfecting comprises:

activating the second pump using computer-readable instructions with predetermined intervals and execution times;

activating the heater to heat permeate in the secondary circuit to a disinfecting temperature;

circulating the raw-water in the primary circuit using the first pump via the feed tank; and

opening the bypass valve for achieving a predetermined pressure in the secondary circuit and a predetermined flow velocity in the primary circuit.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising separating the reverse osmosis system from a water network during a non-use period, and parking the reverse osmosis system without water connection at a different place.

3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising performing the at least one of cleaning and disinfecting of the secondary circuit of the reverse osmosis system at a predetermined hygienic level for a predetermined period of time so that before operation no delay time is afforded.

4. The method of claim 1 , wherein the computer-readable instructions are independently running preselectable computer-readable instructions.

5. The method of claim 1 , wherein the disinfecting temperature is a predetermined temperature for disinfecting the high-purity permeate.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising performing the at least one of cleaning and disinfecting of the secondary circuit of the reverse osmosis system without water consumption and without water waste.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising flushing the membrane from deposits of a biofilm on a primary side of the membrane using the first pump so that no contaminants pass the membrane to a secondary side of the membrane.

8. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

supplying the high-purity permeate from the secondary circuit to a dialysis device coupled to the secondary circuit.

9. A method for sanitizing a reverse osmosis system to supply high-purity permeate, the method comprising:

supplying raw water to a feed tank and to a filter module using a raw-water inlet line having an inlet valve, the filter module comprising a semipermeable membrane and a permeate collection tube;

providing a primary circuit of the reverse osmosis system having a first pump connected to the filter module, wherein the semipermeable membrane is disposed within the primary circuit, the semipermeable membrane being coupled at a first end to a mixed-water connection of the primary circuit and at an opposed second end to a concentrate outlet line of the primary circuit, the primary circuit further comprising a bypass valve for modulating a pressure buildup in the reverse osmosis system;

providing a secondary circuit of the reverse osmosis system having a second pump and a heater, wherein the permeate collection tube is disposed within the secondary circuit, the permeate collection tube being coupled at a first end to a permeate circulation line of the secondary circuit and at an opposed second end to a permeate supply line of the secondary circuit, the permeate circulation line being connected to the second pump and the permeate supply line being connected to the heater;

separating the primary circuit from the secondary circuit using a semipermeable membrane disposed in the filter module, wherein the semipermeable membrane includes membrane pockets that are spirally arranged about the permeate collection tube such that liquid in the primary circuit which is supplied via the membrane pockets can enter into the permeate collection tube;

at least one of cleaning and disinfecting the secondary circuit of the reverse osmosis system while the raw-water inlet line is in a disconnected state and the inlet valve is in a closed state using the second pump and the heater;

wherein said at least one of cleaning and disinfecting comprises:

activating the second pump using computer-readable instructions with predetermined intervals and execution times;

activating the heater to heat permeate in the secondary circuit to a disinfecting temperature;

circulating the raw-water in the primary circuit using the first pump via the feed tank; and

opening an outflow valve to connect the feed tank to the secondary circuit;

heating water in the secondary circuit using the heater;

circulating the heated water through the feed tank with the first pump to further clean the primary circuit and the secondary circuit of the reverse osmosis system.

11. The method of claim 10 , wherein said circulating the heated water further uses the second pump to support circulation in the secondary circuit.

12. The method of claim 9 , wherein, in the secondary circuit, a consumer line is disposed between the heater and the second pump.
