Saltworks Technologies recently showcased its innovative desalination technology at GLOBE 2010 Vancouver’s international green business conference.
The three-day trade fair is North America’s most important conference dedicated to the business of the environment. The fair took place March 24 to 26 at the Vancouver Convention Centre and featured presentations, demonstrations, and guest speakers from cutting-edge clean-tech companies around the world.
The Saltworks team showcased its breakthrough technology in conjunction with the BC Innovation Council using a fully functional portable desalination machine to show how the process works.
In addition to participating in the trade fair, the Saltworks management team led multiple tours at its facility and seawater pilot plant at the Port of Vancouver. Guests included Sustainable Development Technology Canada, the Singapore Public Utilities Board, and major engineering companies. Guests not only visited the plant but also witnessed it desalting seawater.
CEO Ben Sparrow said the plant is achieving a “continuous flow of saltwater coming in and potable salt standard coming out.”
Saltworks is now preparing for another round of financing.

The many options for managing brine, a term for saline wastewater from industrial processes, fall under two categories: brine treatment and brine disposal. Brine treatment involves desalinating the brine for reuse and producing a concentrated brine (lower liquid waste volume), or residual solids (zero liquid discharge).
