The system operates at lower temperatures and pressures, making it significantly less energy-intensive compared to reverse osmosis or distillation methods. It also has the potential to be integrated with existing natural gas infrastructure and is scalable for applications ranging from small to large-scale use.

Access to clean water remains a global challenge, especially in arid regions and remote communities. Existing desalination methods are energy-intensive and expensive.

This technology forms gas hydrates by combining water and gas under specific conditions. During the process, only pure water forms hydrate crystals, leaving behind salt and impurities. The hydrate is then separated and melted to produce clean water.

This technology uses a Gas Hydrate Semi-Batch Reactor to purify seawater and wastewater by forming CO₂ hydrates. Under specific low temperature and pressure conditions, only clean water forms into solid hydrates, leaving behind salt and impurities. The hydrates are then melted to produce fresh water. This method is more energy-efficient than traditional desalination systems and can be scaled for different uses, with the potential to connect to existing natural gas infrastructure.
