CarbonBlue’s connection to the desalination industry is a part of our company’s DNA. Our R&D facility and first pilot are co-located within Kibbutz Maagan Michael’s desalination plant, and our engineering team boast decades of combined experience in desal – but the core of our connection with this important industry is CarbonBlue’s technology itself.

Installing our technology on a desalination plant’s water inlet stream provides innumerable advantages, environmental benefits aside. Decarbonating the water intake reduces – and in some cases even eliminates – the need for a second boron pass, increases membrane efficiency, and dramatically decreases the need for descaling.

The on-site production of CO2 can cut down on supply chain costs, as well as their environmental impact, and provide readily available feedstock independent of CO2 suppliers. But most importantly – integrating CarbonBlue into any desalination process brings facilities, and the industry as a whole, closer to net-zero, drastically reducing and offsetting carbon footprints.
