Smart Reverse Osmosis Desalination Membranes
Global Water Scarcity
The Silent Existential Crisis


Less than 3% of Increasing depleting world Water resources are fresh - the rest are from saline sources

United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres has warned that water scarcity is a major concern and that one in four people could live in countries with chronic water shortages by 2050.

Desalination is a high cost, energy, and footprint technology

For Desalination to meet these crisis it needs to become economically and environmentally sustainable at any scale

Our solution
We Activate Membranes to Control Fouling & Scaling

Active Membranes is innovating the future of fresh water by redefining the technology used in membrane desalination.
Our patented and award-winning electro-active membrane technology addresses fouling and scaling challenges by simplifying process design with minimal pre-treatment. It enhances freshwater recovery while significantly reducing capital and operating costs, making desalination an efficient and scalable solution for any application.

With the result of reducing 50%-60% of the Overall Life Cycle
Impact Example
Oil & Gas Produced
Water Reuse
2025 - Active Membranes


Throughput = 20 GPM

Recovery = 60%

6 Unit Operations - Footprint = 850 ft2

Lifecycle Cost = $1.81/BBL Water Treated


Throughput = 20 GPM

Recovery = 75%

3 Unit Operations - Footprint = 350 ft2

Lifecycle Cost = $0.80/BBL Water Treated
2018 - Passive Membranes
