Desalination

The process of removing salt from sea water is known as Desalination. This process is in practice since a long time but there are small scale opportunities as well in this stream. Though desalination takes place, pure water is not transported to the places where it is needed the most. Rather, a mobile technology of transferring salt less water in cargo to the place where it is most needed is the startup opportunity that Seven Seas Water developed which was backed by Virgin Green Fund.

This Tampa based company has brilliantly come up with an idea of building desalination plants on cargos and transporting them to places where water is most required and demanded. It primarily serves the need of people in the Caribbean where access to drinking water is minimal. In India coastal regions can have such startup ideas that can help states without water to get access to drinking water anytime.
