Our Wave-Powered Sustainable Desalination Solution
Oneka Technologies turns seawater into fresh water in an innovative and sustainable way by harnessing wave energy.
Over the years, we have developed great expertise in the exploitation of wave energy and are now able to offer high-performance and reliable patented solutions to our customers. Oneka’s water quality is adjusted to meet the World Health Organization standards and/or local water standards.
Water supply for urban and remote communities, industries and resorts
The Iceberg-class unit was developed to deploy commercial-scale projects for coastal communities, industries and resorts. One unit can provide water for 100 to 1500 people per day depending on consumption.
Unit Specifications
- Capacity: 30-50 m3 (8k-13k US gal)/day/unit
(The production depends on wave height. The optimal quantity of buoys is calculated in order to meet water needs.) - Dimensions: 5m x 8m (16 ft x 26 ft)
- Weight: 11,000 kg (23,000 lbs)
The many benefits include:
We can adjust the number of buoys to meet the changing water needs of our clients.
The brine we discharge has a negligible impact on marine flora and fauna since its salt concentration is slightly higher (+30%) than that of the ocean.
The meshes of our strainer are 50 microns which prevents the suction of fish eggs and any marine animals.
Our units are designed to withstand 4 m (13 ft) waves without intervention. Storm survival features are in place for harsher conditions.
The anchors and Iceberg hulls can be used as artificial reefs to protect and even restore some marine ecosystems.
Site requirements for deploying an Iceberg array
Piloting and
demonstration purposes
The P-class unit was developed to deploy demo sites and pilot
projects in order to show the performance of the technology in
new markets. One unit can provide water for X to X people per
day depending on consumption.
Unit Specifications
- Capacity: 10 m3 (2600 US gal) /day/unit
- Dimensions: 5 m x 2.5 m (17 ft x 8 ft)
- Weight: 2250 kg (4960 lbs)
Emergency relief
applications
From our larger scale desalination units, we down-sized our
most advanced technology to provide plug-and-play
desalination buoys, the Snowflake-class units, for humanitarian
and natural disaster relief applications.
Unit Specifications
- Capacity: 1500 L (395 US gal) /day/unit
- Dimensions : 1.5 m (5 ft)
- Weight : 350 kg (772 lb)
The many benefits include:
Our robust and purely-mechanical system can provide you weeks of water. It is an all-in-one solution that includes all you need to turn seawater into drinking water and then store it.
The Snowflake-class units replace many water bottles which require continuous supply while being very polluting.
The inflatable buoy has been designed to fit on a standard 41” x 44” x 35” crate, weighing 390 kg, to facilitate delivery.
The system assembly is simple and easy: Inflate, roll, tow, attach and finally, enjoy the fresh water. Only basic hand tools are needed.
