Company Summary

The AquaZ membrane removes all contaminants incl. salts and lets only water molecules pass through. AquaZ's membrane requires significantly lower operating pressure than the 60-70 bars typically used in RO seawater desalination, potentially cutting water desalination cost by an order of magnitude (~50% reduction). This reduces total cost of ownership. The potential global market is in excess of 550 mUSD with a double digit annual growth rate.
