Supporting Desalination Where It Hurts Most: Intake and Discharge
Desalination works — but intake and discharge are two of the most expensive and heavily scrutinised parts of the system.
Pulling seawater to the surface takes fuel, power, and pumps that break down. Disposing of brine discharge can require engineered infrastructure, energy, and complex approvals.
That's where we oPod comes in.
What oPod™ Helps You With
🔋 Reduce Intake Energy
Uses wave and solar power to deliver seawater from depth — no fuel, no grid required
🌊 Improve Intake Quality
Brings in cooler, cleaner water with more stable chemistry and lower biofouling risk
♻️ Disperse Brine Naturally
Helps spread brine into deeper, moving water — lowering impact and easing compliance
🔧 Cut Infrastructure Load
Reduces reliance on high-energy pumps, valves, and discharge hardware
Add-on, Not Overhaul
oPod™ is a passive system designed to take pressure off your front and back end. It’s not a replacement for your core plant — it’s a way to make your site more efficient, less fuel-reliant, and easier to manage. Currently in pilot. Built for integration. Designed for coastal conditions.
