Desalinated Water via Biological Means
The need to find sources of potable water that do not put further strain on existing aquifers and eco-systems is a global issue. In short, the supply of potable water is decreasing while the consumption is increasing. Rightly so, desalination is seen as the best source of new potable water supplies. However, existing commercial systems have limitations that make their large scale deployment difficult. In general, water from these sources is costlier than traditional ground water sources. This, more than anything, limits the applicability of most desalination technologies to those locations where the added cost is either tolerable, or unavoidable.
We have perfected a system that uses halophytic plants, cultivated in a controlled, semi-closed environment, to desalinate water via its natural transpiration, collected via condensation. Such a system uses no purchased energy to drive the process, is self-repairing and self-replicating, and is silent. It can produce potable water at costs comparable to traditional ground water sources, and in comparable quantities. Add to this the, arguable, attractiveness of the facilities, they can be installed at multiple locations without adversely affecting their surroundings. It is, in essence, a solar powered, reverse osmosis process.
The key to this is our proprietary Artificial Intelligence that constantly monitors mechanical and environmental factors to keep the system working at peak performance.
In many locations our processors can compete with traditional groundwater sources in cost per acre-foot.
We invite you to our plant just outside Philadelphia.
