The Future of Membrane Separation

Smart membranes will transform the industry, delivering an operator experience that sets a new standard.

Passive membrane separation is the key reason why desalination is currently considered costly, environmentally challenging, and a last resource.

Incumbent membrane technology is done through passive separation. The feed water quality The membrane receives controls what saturated mineral salts, colloids, bio-organisms, and other organics scale or foul its surface.

Fouling and scaling prevention drives membrane separation process design and is responsible for up to 60% of capital and 70% of operating cost in a membrane separation process.

Our solution

We Activate Membranes to Control Fouling & Scaling
