Solar Water Plc is helping solve the planet’s water crisis, with a zero-environmental impact and affordable system.
HOW IT WORKS
Concentrated Solar Power Desalination plants combine technologies that provide a sustainable approach to seawater desalination using only the sun as the energy source.
THE PROCESS
Seawater Intake
Seawater is piped from the sea into the stainless steel solar dome, via a
natural pre-treatment intake system, to create freshwater from
seawater.

Solar Energy Concentration
In order to generate the necessary levels of thermal energy required,
solar power is concentrated using pioneering 5th Gen Solar Concentrators.

From Seawater to Freshwater
The dome acts as a receiver; inside the saline seawater is processed, to produce fresh solar water.

Fresh Solar Water
The fresh solar water can then be used for urban development, agriculture, industry and tourism and can undergo secondary treatment as necessary for drinking water.
Output Levels of Fresh Solar Water
The output of fresh water will provide many thousands of cubic metres (millions of litres) of fresh water per day, which is millions of Cubic metres per year (billions of litres).
Many factors affect the final model such as (but not exclusively) levels of solar irradiation, salinity of the sea water, local labour costs and skills, cost of steel, concrete, shipping, taxes and accessibility of site.
Volumes, costings and output prices will be determined on a case by case basis, following a feasibility and environmental study.
