The reverse osmosis membrane method is one of its applications, but it consumes more energy resources and produces freshwater with high cost. The four-column floating bed we designed has low investment and is simple and easy to operate. The sea wave energy storage and seawater desalination device produced by this method has greatly reduced the cost of freshwater produced. This paper focuses on the design of the automatic measurement and control loop of the device.展开更多
