Title of Process/ Know-how/ Product/Design/Equipment
Self-powered mobile van for water purification/desalination to provide safe potable water
Application/Uses/Problem being addressed
Mobile water desalination and purification plant, running on the engine power of the van itself. It can treat turbid/flood and contaminated water using indigenously developed membrane technology to make the water potable on spot during natural calamities.
Salient Technical Features including Competing Features/ Impact
Capacity to desalinate 2000 LPH brackish water & 500 LPH capacity two pass SWRO; Two different variants are available; The newer design is an improved version over the existing mobile van of dimensions of 11500 X 2500 X 3300 mm (LXBXH) to 2550 X 1750 keeping the overall power generation & desalination capacity similar & making it viable for reaching different terrain and remote locations smoothly. The Indigenous TFC/UF membrane technology applied in the van makes it unique. No electricity requirements at site.
TRL Level & Scale of Development:
-
Business scope & opportunity (in terms of scale, cost, market etc.):
The technology is ready for technology transfer and can be implemented on commercial scale. The product has high demand in various state governments and industrial sector. Ready to be placed in E-market. Mobile van is an important support system for potable water solution during the crisis like cyclone/floods/drought.
