Overview
The center pairs advanced membrane treatment with brine minimization to make industrial reuse viable at coastal salinity levels.
Every process line is instrumented for continuous quality telemetry, feeding the same digital twin used across Blue Bastion assets.
Output is contracted to industrial offtakers, reducing freshwater draw on a stressed coastal aquifer.
