EZPuro for salinity treatment
Off-grid compact-robotic RO system to reduce irrigation water salinity
We developed the smallest. lightest RO system, that can operate on 3 solar panels, fully automated that treat water with high salinity and convert it to irrigation water.
About
Our solution is based on our proprietary innovative RO system – the EZPuro™. The EZPuro™ is a robotic reverse-osmosis (RO) water purifier. EZPuro™ technology allows to purify 99.3% of all the contamination in the feed water. It is the SMALLEST and LIGHTEST machine in its category – a key feature in many industries; and it is the SMARTER water purifier in the category – with a level of automation that does not exist in other products. It can be easily operated by any individual, not only professionals, and promises a continuous optimized performance in terms of water production rate, longer service periods and higher water quality. This is achieved by means of ROBOTIC control and monitoring system. The EZPuro™ requires only 1 KWh and therefore can be operated by 3-4 solar panels. We provide a full system solution - from the water source to the irrigation system - which includes - pumping water from the water source, pre-filter and pre-storage, RO water treatment, post storage, pumping to the irrigation system. The whole system is off-grid, working on solar power. We also integrate into the system a Pay-As-You-Use system, that enable us to offer the system on a "water as service" model - the farmer pays for the water he uses and he is not required to a large upfront invetsment.
Key Benefits
Our competitive advantage compared to our competitors is based on: - The EZPuro™ is the smallest and lightest system in the category. - Low energy consumption - Unique high level of automation. - Price-performance, which is one of the best in the market. - Pay-As-You-Use model integrated into the system.
Applications
- Reduce salinity in irrigation water - High salinity water contains a high concentration of dissolved salts, such as sodium, chloride, and magnesium. When plants are irrigated with high salinity water, the high concentration of salts in the water can cause water stress. Additionally, the high salt concentration can disrupt the balance of nutrients and ions within the plant, causing toxicity, damage to the root system, and reduced photosynthesis. High salinity levels in irrigation problem become a major issue around the world. Climate warming have significant impact on increase levels of salinity in freshwater. - treatment of un-drinkable water and convert it to drinkable water - Water scarcity is a major problem all over the world. It is estimated that worldwide more than 1.4 billion people live in areas of high (1 billion) or extremely high (489 million) water vulnerability. - Local off-grid water treatment - treat undrinkable water sources in rural areas (villages, farms, etc.).
