Desolenator is a pioneering company offering the world's first circular solar thermal desalination solution designed to operate at scale. The company specializes in sustainably transforming seawater or brackish water into drinking water or ultrapure water by harnessing solar energy and/or industrial low-grade waste heat. Its patented technology is highly efficient, capturing four times more energy from the sun than traditional PV panels, while ensuring a process free of harmful chemicals, membranes, and energy intermittency.

The innovative Desolenator system integrates Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) capabilities, which facilitates a truly circular approach to desalination. This allows for the production of quality water and valuable salt without generating toxic brine, thus minimizing environmental impact. The company's modular units are designed to produce 1,000 cubic meters of water per day and are progressing towards achieving a levelized cost of water below 1 USD per 1,000 liters, making high-quality water both accessible and affordable.

Desolenator serves a diverse range of clients, including municipalities and various industries such as data centers and agriculture, enabling them to become water producers rather than just users. By securing on-site water supply and protecting local watersheds, Desolenator helps businesses enhance operational resilience and supports better water stewardship. Notable projects include the flagship plant delivered to the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA) in 2022 and a second plant for Silal in Al Ain, UAE, in 2024.
