* Gravity-assisted reverse osmosis

* Uses solar energy

* 24/7 water production

* Reduced brine impact

Turning seawater or brackish water into affordable fresh water, 24 hours a day, without the use of expensive energy. The off-grid solution directly uses solar, wind or wave energy to fill a buffer tank on a hill with seawater. Through the force of gravity, the reverse osmosis process receives its required feed: pressurized seawater. The system configuration makes sure the water buffer always contains water to enable constant water production, resulting in lowest cost of water. The waste energy of the reverse osmosis process is reused to reduce the required elevation with 80% to 90 m or 290 ft for seawater.
