Water desalination station

Excess salt in the irrigation water reduces the quality and productivity of the crop either by:

  • Increased osmotic potential of the soil, which means that the plant requires more energy to absorb water, and higher consumption for salt leaching.

  • Phytotoxicity of specific ions such as sodium, chlorine and boron can cause direct damage to the plant, limiting its marketability.

  • Clogging of irrigation outlets, which can lead to loss of crop uniformity, reduced system lifetime and increased frequency and intensity of maintenance work.

  • Irrigation water often contains salts of no agricultural value that limit the supply of essential nutrients.

Reverse Osmosis Plant Novagric Smaqua

The SMAQUA desalination plant (with Reverse Osmosis membranes) desalinates brackish water or seawater for irrigation and industrial use.

This way you can regulate the salinity of the water to the specific sensitivity of each plant and you can get osmosed water from any water source or brackish water.

Advantages of desalination plants

  • The design of the desalination plant optimises its performance and minimises energy (and consumables) consumption. As a result, the useful life of the plant is extended.

  • Ample space for operation and maintenance

  • Optimal working conditions

  • Resistant to ambient temperatures.

  • It reduces maintenance personnel costs (it is automated) while ensuring the quality of treated water and protecting equipment and people.

  • You can control it remotely.

  • Integrated plant nutrition solution

  • No building work required

Get your own reverse osmosis plant

Novagric manufactures automated water desalination plants. They operate with minimum energy consumption and have a long service life.

This reduces maintenance personnel costs and guarantees the quality of the treated water. In addition, you can control it remotely.
