DESALINIZATION

Solar Desalination of Brackish Water

Solar reverse osmosis station for the purification of Saharan brackish water.

Chemistry of Saharan Brackish Waters

Water from desert boreholes has high mineralization (3.5g/L to 7.2g/L TDS). CSH deploys modular solar reverse osmosis units treating water without harsh chemicals.

Autonomous Reverse Osmosis Technology

The high pressure membranes are driven by solar axial piston pumps offering an energy efficiency of 3.5 kWh/m³. The system produces 12 m³ of drinking water with a salinity < 0.3g/L per day.

Ecological Management of Waste Brine

The rejected brines are directed to solar evaporation basins sealed by geomembrane, allowing the recovery of salt for livestock feed.
