“Aqua Fission technology
is unparalleled, with no
existing analogues.”
Benefits
Access to clean freshwater is becoming not only a humanitarian issue but a geopolitical flashpoint—putting energy, food security, and even lives at risk. Aqua Fission’s groundbreaking technology helps change all that.
Eco-Friendly
Aqua Fission Water Purification Technology offers significant advantages over traditional reverse osmosis (RO) methods in water treatment. While RO technology typically generates 50-60% toxic brine saltwater concentrate, harming ecosystems, Aqua Fission’s Zero Liquid Discharge totally eliminates this issue.
Modular and Scalable
Aqua Fission’s off-grid ready, modular design is housed in 40-foot, open containers, allowing for mobile installation on trolleys, ships, railway platforms, and remote locations lacking essential infrastructure.
Clean Water Anywhere at Any Scale.
Aqua Fission’s modular, off-grid-ready system can be deployed in virtually any environment at any scale. Simple in design, Aqua Fission purifies water from any source with up to 99% efficiency at water temperatures as low as 4*C, creating no toxic brine and no CO2 emissions
Aqua Fission technology is unparalleled globally, with no existing analogues.

The Problem with Reverse Osmosis
Pressure is increasing to adopt sustainable technologies while rising water scarcity and brine-disposal bans accelerate demand. Reverse Osmosis (RO) dominates the water desalination and treatment market today. RO is a problematic solution because it is energy-intensive and often powered by fossil fuels, relies on plastic membranes and requires chemical treatments and constant consumable replacement. Importantly, RO generates large volumes of toxic brine and reverse-osmosis concentrates (ROC) that are costly to manage, environmentally harmful, and increasingly restricted by regulation.
Aqua Fission not only solves energy, waste, and cost limitations of RO and thermal systems, it can be a retrofit to existing RO plants to process toxic brine and ROC’s and double freshwater capacity.
- Energy-intensive and costly, requiring heating, consumables such as chemicals, membranes, reagents, inhibitors, coagulants, filters, cathodes and anodes, and high-pressure pumps that require regular replacement.
- High labor, maintenance, and toxic brine and reverse osmosis concentrate disposal costs.
- Significant greenhouse emissions
- Outputs 50% brine and reverse osmosis concentrates (ROCs) in the reject stream, increasing toxicity and disposal complexity.
- Toxic salt brine (highly concentrated seawater) and ROC’s are loaded with chemicals and heavy metals, depletes oxygen, and threatens entire ecosystems.
- Only 50% clean water output (and 50% toxic brine) requiring the processing of 2X water volume.
- Ineffective on high salt content water, PFAS and microplastics, and radioactive contaminants such as tritium.
- Requires pre- and post-treatment.
- Mineral loss and acidic pH.
- Processing and sources lead to bad tasting water.
