The CANDESAL® approach to achieving water production at costs significantly below traditional alternatives includes:

• Use of state-of-the-art reverse osmosis desalination technology, advanced feedwater pre-treatment systems, and modern energy recovery systems.



• A non-traditional approach that emphasizes high-pressure operation to improve energy utilization.



• Development and use of sophisticated design optimization techniques to ensure a design that best meets customer requirements for a given application.



• Where available, use of low-grade waste heat from the energy generation process to increase the efficiency of water production.



• Analysis of each project as an integrated system to ensure optimum plant performance and minimum cost.



• Cooperation with local manufacturers and suppliers to maximize local participation as a means to reduce costs.



• Active participation with the customer to ensure proper plant operation, maintenance and training to ensure maximum plant life and minimum life cycle costs.
