Voltea’s award-winning desalination technology, CapDI (Capacitive deionization), is a simple and innovative way to remove dissolved salts from water with high recovery rate and low energy consumption.
Voltea’s CapDI technology has been recognized by numerous awards including best new technology award at the 2010 Global Water Summit, most creative company in Europe by CNBC and The Artemis Top 50 of water technology companies 2011.
'''====How does CapDI work?''' <br>====
In CapDI, water flows through a small electrical field of 1.5 volts that is created by a pair of electrodes. Dissolved ions are pulled out of the water stream, toward the electrodes. The electrodes are separated from the water by membranes that selectively allow only positive or negative ions to pass. CapDI is effective at removing all type of ions from water (e.g. calcium, sodium, chloride, sulfate, carbonate…).
'''====Major Steps of the CapDI Process'''<br>====
* Step 1. Purification:<br>

===Suitable conditions=== '''High water recovery rate''' <br>
CapDI typically recovers between 80% and 90% of the water it treats, compared to 50-70% for reverse osmosis. This is good for the environment and can save costs, both in overall water intake and in brine water discharge.
===Operations and Maintenance===
Voltea’s CapDI systems are based on a single technology platform, which allows for variable salt removal, and is scalable across water volumes ranging from a few milliliters per minute to thousands of cubic meters per hour. This
flexibility means CapDI can be used in a wide array of applications, from residential white goods to large industrial cooling towers.
