Reach out if you are curious about what the Cryo-Separation™, our water tech innovation offers, and with it the potential to be a game changer for drinkable water access and protection of our resource.
SEAWARDS’ INNOVATION
CRYO-SEPARATION™
Agile tech, energy savvy and pollution free
PATENTED TECHNOLOGY FOR SEAWATER DESALINATION
SEAWARDS uses a separation technology that filters potable water in the course of a cooling cycle. Through this method, the structures of salt and fresh water react differently when exposed to low temperatures.
Water becomes solid at 0°C, while salted water will start freezing at -2°C. This characteristic allows, during the cooling cycle, for a separation of matter which permits the extraction of water crystals as solid matter, while salted water remains at a liquid state.
LESS ENERGY
Lower production costs. Reduced carbon emissions. Reduced exposure to energy cost fluctuations.
POLLUTION FREE
Discharge of water slightly saltier than water intake (never more than 10%) with no chemical additives.
Cryo-separation™
Only 10 % of the water that has been cryo-separated becomes potable.
The remaining 90 % is recycled into the sea without the extra salt load which is pollutant in itself.
Water intake
Glacification and separation
Fresh water recovery
AN EFFICIENT SOLUTION
The 3 stages of water treatment by Cryo-Separation™ (pumping, freezing, separation) consume less energy than reverse osmosis (pumping, push, recovery, treatment).
- Optimization of the energic toll
- Competitive CAPEX and OPEX
AN AGILE OPTION
The agility of our methods allows for a quick development of production, answering to various level of needs, and adaptable with complex situations.
- Prefabricated, modular infrastructures to meet specific needs, accelerate installation and operations, and reduce overall costs.
- Industrial development with production capacities in line with worldwide deployment.
- Reduced land footprint, limiting local nuisance (construction and operation).
KNOWLEDGE DRIVES INNOVATION, INNOVATION DRIVES PRODUCTIVITY, PRODUCTIVITY DRIVES ECONOMIC GROWTH.
- William Brody
A CLEAN VISION
A solution which uses the natural properties of water, the density principle and separation by change of matter with the use of temperature without any chemicals.
- Our technology offers a clean, economical, efficient desalination method.
- A stable, robust treatment solution that is less impacted by incoming water quality than reverse osmosis, and requires less maintenance.
- Agile infrastructures enabling solutions adapted to each environment.
There’s a way to do it better. Find it.

Whom is the SEAWARDS Cryo-Separation for ?
AS MANY PEOPLE AS POSSIBLE
All of us, concerned by the challenges brought upon our world by water scarcity.
- Innovators seeing far ahead,
- Visionaries seeing differently,
- Responsible managers choosing sustainable solutions, as answers to the societal and environmental challenges presented by the water risk.
INDUSTRIES
A solution that provides environmentally-friendly access to fresh water, in response to the constraints and undertakings of future restrictions.
An alternative resource to warant access to fresh water for seaside industries in times of shortage and crisis management, freeing them from dependence on a network already stressed by agricultural and domestic demands (or needs).
COASTAL TOURISM
A palliative solution to the growing need for emergency solutions in the face of water constraints and respect for the environment, in order to perpetuate the seaside tourist economy.
MARINE TERRITORIES
An innovation based on adaptable, sustainable and modular development, to meet the vital and sovereign needs of remote areas weakened by water shortages.
