Sectors / Desalination

Push desalination past reverse osmosis' ceiling

Reverse osmosis does the bulk of the work cheaply, until scaling limits recovery. Past that point, the usual options mean more chemicals, more heat or more footprint. Danu Water takes over at exactly that point, recovering more water and shrinking the brine that is so costly to dispose of.

  • 75% → 95%typical overall recovery when Danu Water treats brackish RO concentrate
  • ~80%less brine volume to dispose of
  • No added heatand no scale-control chemicals to run reliably

Desk modelling for brackish RO, not site data. Every plant is assessed on its own water and disposal route.

These are jobs, not a fixed line-up

The applications illustrate the jobs that are often needed in a plant. In practice, we design around each site's own combination of problems. Where and how much water we take, and where we return it, is up to you. Often a single unit can do several jobs, or a pair are designed to work together.
