EDI - High Purity Water Production Depends on It
In the 1950s', electrodeionization (EDI) technology was invented in an attempt to minimize or eliminate polarization phenomenon concentrations that were present in electrodialysis systems. Decades later, the technology was applied to polish reverse osmosis product water and generate chemical free high purity water. Today, many OEMs use EDI. Electrodeionization technology uses ion-exchange resin ...

How is GWT's Seawater Reverse Osmosis Plant Different from Others?
A seawater reverse osmosis plant by definition utilizes the separation of salts and other mineral molecules from water. Freshwater supplies in some parts of the world are dwindling, hard to come by, or are heavily polluted. These are aspects of the growing epidemic of water scarcity.To reduce the strain on freshwater sources, we have to look elsewhere for water and there are no larger sources ...
