Osmotic Less RO
This technology utilizes a novel osmotic-less reverse osmosis (OLRO) membrane that decreases energy consumption by 25% and lowers water production costs by 15% compared to conventional RO desalination plants. This breakthrough marks a major improvement in RO membrane efficiency and process innovation.

Low-Temperature  MED

The cutting-edge design reduces vapor route losses and eliminates the demister, resulting in a smaller footprint and lower capital costs. We have also optimized the vertical tube length according to the minimum wetting rate criteria to prevent dry patches. Additionally, a new analytical equation for boiling point elevation, considering the osmotic effect, has been developed and incorporating the osmotic coefficient to account for deviations in the ideal thermophysical properties of high brine concentrations.

Farm Greenhouse Irrigating, shading, and salt production

  • The Solar Still wall absorbs solar energy to provide the required irrigation water.

  • The wall creates partial shading, which will reduce the cooling load.

  • Simple design and cheap investment for GH farm applications.

  • Needs low-level maintenance.

  • Brine Management: ZLD and Salt Production.

  • Rooftop unit for open channels to treat wastewater.

  • Rooftop unit for the solar evaporative pond

VSP  - Visual Simulator Program 

The Visual Simulation Program (VSP) is created to model different types and setups of desalination processes, encompassing thermal, membrane, and hybrid. With its adaptable, dependable, and intuitive interface, the VSP enables students, designers, and researchers to perform calculations such as mass and heat balances, exergy analyses, and techno-economic assessments of processes. Furthermore, the program can current plants or assist in crafting conceptual designs for new configurations.
