Tritón Water Technologies

About us

Providing pure water through seawater desalination

Our mission is to provide clear, clean drinking water wherever it is needed through cutting-edge technologies

The Triton Water Technologies’ mission is to provide clear, clean drinking water wherever it is needed through cutting-edge desalination technologies.

To accomplish this mission, Triton has designed and built a line of portable desalination plants using reverse osmosis (RO) membranes to filter the salt out of seawater, producing clean, potable, fresh-tasting water.

The sophisticated reverse osmosis membrane system and energy-saving pressure exchanger are packaged in a standard shipping container, allowing the Triton desalination plants to be quickly and easily transported to where fresh drinking water is needed most.

We purify leachate, obtaining quality water for reuse

With Triton’s technology, leachate and other highly polluting effluents are purified, obtaining clean water suitable for any kind of reuse application or to be safely returned to the environment. Our objective is to contribute to the preservation of the hydraulic resources and the protection of the hydrographic environment
