HelioAquaTech Solar RO-Systems. For demands of
1,500 up to 15,000 liters of water per day.
Reverse osmosis (RO) is the method most often used for the production of drinking water from saline water such as seawater, well water, groundwater but also from grey water. Nearly all large seawater desalination plants, mainly those in metropolitan regions, work essentially with the RO method. In the process, seawater is pressed through appropriate membranes and filters with high pressure, removing nearly all particles in the water.
Leaving aside the fact that large plants using the RO method not only require a great amount of investments, infrastructure, technology and servicing: RO plants of this category are true energy wasters. An enormous amount of energy is required to pump so much water into the membrane filters.
Small to medium RO systems, as offered by HelioAquaTech, are run by solar energy and are not dependent on conventional power sources.
They are designed for the decentralized treatment processes of drinking and saltwater in remote regions which are often not easily accessed. They are therefore designed to be operated without major installation or maintenance effort: modular construction, quickly installed and ready for use. HelioAquaTech can thereby cover numerous fields of application.
From small, mobile systems with an output of 1,500 liters per day to systems with a daily output of 15,000 liters.

The green way to drinking water
The HelioAquaTech Solar Desalination System is the environmentally friendliest technology for the production of drinking water from saltwater. It requires neither electricity nor gas, only solar energy. It protects flora and fauna, since filtered-out salt is reclaimed and not returned to the sea.
Right to water is a human right
The World Health Organization (WHO) supports and initiates many projects to provide billions of people in the poorest countries of the world access to clean water. Read more about those projects at the official website of the WHO.

Winner of the Global Energy Award
One of the most important awards concerning environment and ecology, was presented to the Solar Desalination System in 2009. The system was nominated again for the award in 2010.
