Non-thermal zero-liquid-discharge brine treatment
A patented non-thermal solvent-exchange and crystallisation system that treats high-salinity industrial brines, recovering clean water and extracting minerals while avoiding the high energy cost of thermal evaporation. The solution targets industries with high residual brine streams such as oil & gas, mining and chemical manufacturing.
TECHNOLOGY / INNOVATION
The ABX™ process uses a specialized absorbent to pull water out of concentrated brines, then separates and recovers the water while precipitating salts and minerals. It handles extremely high salinity, prevents membrane scaling, and consumes significantly less energy than thermal evaporation.
CURRENT STATUS
ORIGINS
Founded in 2016, headquartered in New Zealand (with US presence), launched to bring advanced water-recovery solutions to global industry.
OWNERSHIP
USP
By enabling true zero-liquid discharge at much lower energy and capex, and simultaneously recovering valuable minerals, Aquafortus provides a compelling solution to high-cost brine treatment and resource loss — turning a waste liability into recovery opportunity.
CUSTOMERS
Oil & gas operators, mining companies, chemical manufacturers, data-centres with hypersaline wastewater, and utilities requiring zero-liquid discharge solutions.
