This Texas startup has developed a breakthrough technology that purifies water using waste heat through modifications to industrial heat exchangers. The technology accepts pre-orders for purifying oilfield produced water using flare gas and other energy sources. The global market for water treatment technologies is $7 billion currently and expected to reach $11 billion by 2020, representing a potential market opportunity. The inventor and founder is an experienced patent attorney who used his engineering background to redesign heat exchangers to purify water with minimal additional energy or equipment costs.

THE INVENTION
1. The invention redesigns industrial heat ex-
changers to efficiently purify water internally us-
ing waste heat.
2. Water is purified with little or no additional en-
ergy costs to the customer.
3. The additional equipment costs are nominal, if
any.
4. All industries that have excess heat and waste
water can benefit from this invention.
5. Only this invention can purify water with no ex-
ternal energy and with minimal equipment
changes.
6. This invention modifies industrial heat ex-
changers to have distillation chambers and alter-
native flow paths using baffles and tubing to pu-
rify water.
SUMMARY
The world is running out of water. Presently, the
energy required to purify water is expensive.
This breakthrough technology uses waste heat to
purify water. The market for industrial water treat-
ment technologies is set to expand by more than
50% over the next several years.
