Oceanlinx provides users with unique benefits in desalination technology. The Oceanlinx technology can produce fresh drinking quality water of any desired quantity, via its modularized system which entails:
One standard unit can provide more than three million litres of potable water per day. Smaller units are also available, while greater capacity can be achieved via multiple units.
Traditional desalination entails many energy losses. These include:
These losses can be substantial. Oceanlinx's desalination incurs none of these losses, thus facilitating a lower "energy budget".
Oceanlinx offers a desalination product which harnesses the power in ocean waves to generate the clean energy needed for the reverse osmosis process. The cost can be lower than certain conventional desalination, with easy maintenance and availability of replacement parts. Modular units, deployed as water farms, can produce any desired amount of potable water, and units can be situated far enough offshore to preclude almost all environmental and aesthetic issues.
