A Decade of Reverse Osmosis on the Canary Islands<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Located about a hundred kilometers on the western coast of North Africa, The Canary Islands is a Spanish archipelago home to more than two million people. With semi-arid to desert climates, less than 250 millimeters of annual rainfall, and over-exploitation of limited groundwater resources, the islands have faced numerous water scarcity challenges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since entering the desalination industry in 2011, LG NanoH\u2082O\u2122 RO membranes have experienced rapid growth thanks to their breakthrough Thin-Film Nanocomposite (TFN) membrane technology. The Canary Islands began using NanoH\u2082O\u2122 membranes in the same year they were introduced to the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c\u201dWe began installing the membranes for small sites like hotels and then started to learn where to install the plants,\u201d says Juan Carlos De Armas, Director of Global Mega Projects at LG Water Solutions. \u201cThe pilots received excellent feedback from customers from day one regarding specific energy consumption and water quality.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Furthermore, several SWRO pilots for potable and irrigation water drew positive feedback from the end-users, especially regarding boron removal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Juan Carlos continues: \u201cIn 2013, we received the first significant order for a new project in Lanzarote V. From that moment, our growth in the market has put us in a leadership position with approximately 45 percent of the production capacity in the Canary Islands (today).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
