Demonstrator
First worldwide demonstration was carried out in 2015-2016 in partnership with the Suez group. The demonstrator was installed on the Ghantoot site in the United Arab Emirates, on behalf of the company Masdar, to demonstrate the concept of desalination by means of a liquid/liquid extraction process.
Our second unit has been in operation since 2018 on the site of the EDF power station in Martigues. A significant technical improvement was also made to the equipment to prove the extraction of salts from sea water.
