We live on the only known planet with vast, liquid water on the surface – the source of intelligent life.

We’ll have all the water we need to expand humanity when we build the technology to purify saltwater.

All intelligence, both human and artificial, depends on the availability of cheap fresh water.

Start

We start with the saltwater and the solvent separately

Mixing reactor

Then they are combined in a mixing tank where the water molecules move from the salt water to the solvent

Solvent-Brine
Separator

Because the solvent is ‘non aqueous’ it naturally separates from the concentrated brine.

Solvent-Brine
Separator

Then they are combined in a mixing tank where the water molecules move from the salt water to the solvent.

Solvent-Water
Separator

A Liquid / liquid separator then separates the solvent-water mixture and it is heated with solar energy.

Solvent-Water
Separator

The higher temperature changes the solubility of the solvent and pure water is separated and removed.

Solvent-Water
Separator

The water is filtered one more time before use and the solvent is recycled to the beginning of the process.

The oceans are vast, but saltwater is all around us

01

Oceans & brackish groundwater

It is estimated that California alone has 3X the amount of accessible water in the form of brackish groundwater. Groundwater has less salt than seawater, requires less energy to desalinate and the leftover salt has value.

02

Agricultural discharge

The food and agriculture industry is the largest source of demand for fresh water globally. Water that is used for irrigation picks up salts and other impurities in the soil and can be collected and desalinated for reuse.

03

Industrial sources

Heavy industries such as energy and mining produce enormous volumes of saltwater that often become an environmental issue. These industrial waste streams can be desalinated to reduce impact and stress on fresh water supplies.

04

Municipal wastewater

Wastewater should not be wasted. Once treated, municipal wastewater can be desalinated and returned to potable quality. Countries like Israel have made wastewater a critical part of the overall water supply portfolio.

Three types of regenerative water projects using desalination

Potable

Potable water is for human consumption and must be generated from clean water sources, like seawater or brackish groundwater. Desalinated water is often higher quality than tap water.

Ag/Environmental

Water that is suitable for agriculture or the environment can be regenerated from saline water sources, such as farm discharge, ag drainage water and storm runoff. It can contain low levels of salt.

Industrial

Water for industrial purposes has a range of uses and will vary in quality depending on the need. For example, the O&G industry can make use of recycled brine but manufacturing requires ultra-high purity.

The ocean is vast, but regenerative water is everywhere

01

Saline groundwater

Saline groundwater is desalinated to make it freshwater. Desalinated water goes to the wholesaler and is blended with the water supply. Corporations and other end users acquire water credits generated from desalinated water.

Achieving 100% water neutrality

Sustainable water for corporations and cities

We make it easy and affordable for anyone to replace their fresh water consumption with regenerative water by developing fit-for-purpose desalination projects wherever they are needed.
