Water desalination involves removing salt and other impurities from saline water, including seawater, brackish water or bore water. This process makes Australian water usable for drinking, irrigation, livestock watering and other industrial or commercial processes. Salt water treatment systems range from reverse osmosis to multi-stage flash (MSF) distillation.
Hydrosmart saltwater focuses on disrupting ion exchange in hard water using electromagnetic resonant frequencies. This focus reduces the particle size of minerals to restructure the way salt and water interact, whilst also making beneficial minerals more bioavailable.
How Water Desalination Works
As water scarcity issues are exacerbated in many areas of Australia, saltwater has become key to securing freshwater resources. This is particularly important in agriculture, where reliance on high-salinity bore water is common.
Traditional reverse osmosis water desalination systems involve pumping seawater through special membranes under high pressure. The membrane allows water molecules to pass through while stopping salt and other impurities. Fresh water is collected on the other side while concentrated brine is returned to the sea.
MSF distillation, meanwhile, involves heating high-salinity water as it passes through a series of chambers where water is subjected to reduced pressure. This causes water to rapidly evaporate and condense, leaving salt and other impurities behind.
Hydrosmart Salt Water Treatment Systems
When it comes to industrial and agricultural applications, controlled levels of salts are essential for supporting thriving crop growth, livestock health and good soil conditions. Salinity can cause soil compaction, which prevents essential water from penetrating plant roots. Other risks include salt poisoning, dehydration in crops, soil erosion and infrastructure deterioration from scale build-up.
Salinity levels in bore water sources can be controlled with Hydrosmart water conditioners, which work by disrupting ion exchange in hard water. Using resonant frequencies that shrink particle size weakens the bond between minerals and salts. Without the need for harsh chemicals, filters or maintenance, Hydrosmart provides a scalable, sustainable and low-cost solution for reducing salinity in water sources.
