Turning Oceans Into Drinking Water — Anywhere on Earth.
Smart X brings decentralized, solar-ready saltwater-to-drinking-water systems to coastal villages, islands, disaster zones, and communities facing freshwater collapse — with sensor-verified data that proves every liter.
Traditional desalination plants are massive, expensive, and out of reach for most communities. The Smart X saltwater system is different: portable, modular, energy-efficient, and fully integrated with the Smart X cartridge and sensor ecosystem.
From a single unit serving a small fishing community to multi-unit arrays supporting entire coastal regions, Smart X is designed to scale with real-world needs.
Why Saltwater Matters
Over 40% of the world’s population lives near the coast, and climate change is increasing saltwater intrusion into rivers, wells, and groundwater. Many of the communities most at risk have no realistic path to centralized desalination plants.
Coastal communities
Fishing villages, informal settlements, and islands often rely on contaminated or distant freshwater sources. Smart X allows them to produce drinking water where they live.
Climate-driven intrusion
Rising seas push saltwater into wells, rivers, and aquifers. Traditional infrastructure cannot adapt fast enough. Smart X desalination is mobile and rapidly deployable.
Emergency response
Hurricanes, cyclones, and coastal flooding regularly destroy freshwater networks. Smart X gives responders a compact tool to turn surrounding seawater into safe drinking water within hours.
How the Smart X Saltwater System Works
A compact three-stage process brings desalination into the Smart X ecosystem — combining pre-filtration, low-energy salt removal, and final cartridge polishing for microbiological safety.
Ultra-fine pre-filtration
Removes sediments, rust, microplastics, and organic particles from seawater, protecting the core desalination unit and extending its lifetime.
Low-energy salt removal
Smart X’s proprietary low-pressure salt removal technology separates out salts and dissolved solids without the massive power requirements of traditional desalination plants.
Final Smart X cartridge polishing
The same Virus+, Fluoride, and Arsenic protection used in our freshwater systems brings microbiological and contaminant safety to desalinated water — with WHO-compliant flow control.
Standards, Safety & What Makes It Different
Smart X saltwater systems are engineered to meet international drinking water guidelines while staying practical, repairable, and deployable in the field.
Built on proven science.
Smart X systems use NSF-certified materials and are designed to achieve WHO-aligned performance for desalinated drinking water when configured and operated as specified.
- High-grade filtration and salt removal media
- Controlled flow rates for optimal contact time
- Region-specific Smart X cartridges for final polishing
Portable. Low-energy. Smart.
The Smart X saltwater system is:
- Compact enough for rapid deployment
- Designed to work with solar and off-grid setups
- Modular and serviceable in the field
- Fully integrated with the Smart X data platform
This combination of mobility, efficiency, and transparency makes Smart X a new category of coastal water solution.
