Solutions:

We turn seawater or brackish water into affordable fresh water 24 hours a day, without the use of expensive energy from the grid. Our efficient solution uses solar, wind or wave energy directly to fill up a water buffer installed at a hill with seawater. Through the force of gravity, the reverse osmosis process receives its required feed: pressurized seawater. We make sure the water buffer always contains water to enable constant water production, resulting in lowest cost. The waste energy of the reverse osmosis process is re-used to reduce the required elevation with 80% to 90 m or 290 ft for seawater. Take a look at the video & explore the working principle by clicking different components in the figure. We use the forces of nature at its best for an independent guilt-free water supply. By avoiding energy conversion losses, batteries & frequent maintenance, we offer savings up to 70%. The bigger, the better, as water cost come down with size of supply. Sizes start small and go up to millions of liters per day. Turn your water supply into an enriching experience for the people, planet and your profit.
