HydroPurify Innovations Ltd. is a New Alexandrian public limited company that specializing in desalination and the development of cost-effective desalination technologies. The company is also known for its environmentally conscious handling of desalination byproducts. Founded in 1704 AN by Isabel Santos and Luis Guerra in Cardenas, Federal Capital District, HydroPurify has expanded its operations to various New Alexandrian regions including Alduria, Santander, South Lyrica, and the Wechua Nation. The company has expanded internationally as well, operating desalination facilities in Constancia and Oportia.

History

Isabel Santos and Luis Guerra, both engineers with backgrounds in environmental science, founded HydroPurify Innovations Ltd. in 1704 AN with an aim to solve water scarcity issues in Nouvelle Alexandrie. Recognizing the increasing demand for freshwater, they developed patent-pending technologies that made the desalination process more efficient and less harmful to the environment.

Operations

HydroPurify operates several facilities across Nouvelle Alexandrie, with major installations in the regions of Alduria and Santander, as well as additional facilities in South Lyrica and the Wechua Nation. These plants primarily use reverse osmosis and electrodialysis as the core desalination methods.

Alduria Facilities

In Alduria, the company operates two medium-sized desalination plants located in the cities of Punta Santiago and Susa. These plants were established in 1718 AN and 1719 AN, respectively. The Punta Santiago facility has a daily output of 280,000 cubic meters of fresh water, while the Susa facility has a daily output of 220,000 cubic meters. Combined, they provide 500,000 cubic meters of fresh water daily to the cities of Punta Santiago and Susa and to local industries. Each plant employs approximately 350 workers and utilizes a mix of solar and wind energy to operate sustainably.

Santander Facilities

In Santander, HydroPurify runs desalination plants in three cities: Wechuahuasi, Castellon, and Puerto Carrillo. These plants were established between 1720 AN and 1721 AN to address the increasing water needs of the region.

• Wechuahuasi Plant: The largest of the three, with a daily output of 350,000 cubic meters. It also serves as a research facility for the development of new desalination technologies, under its subsidiary, Santander Desal Technologies.
• Castellon Plant: Primarily focuses on desalinating water for agricultural use and has a daily output of 200,000 cubic meters. The facility is part of a joint venture with local agricultural boards to ensure optimized water usage.
• Puerto Carrillo Plant: Specializes in providing industrial-grade water and has a daily output of 150,000 cubic meters. It employs a unique double-pass reverse osmosis system to ensure the water meets stringent quality standards.

All facilities in Santander employ cutting-edge telemetry and automation to optimize energy usage and reduce environmental impact. A workforce of approximately 400 people manages these plants, which also utilize renewable energy sources, such as tidal and geothermal energy.

Other Operations

In South Lyrica and the Wechua Nation, HydroPurify operates smaller desalination units and research facilities aimed at further improving desalination technology and reducing environmental impact. These facilities are primarily overseen by the company's subsidiaries, Lyrica CleanWater and Wechua EcoSystems, respectively.

International Operations

HydroPurify has expanded its global footprint by establishing a subsidiary in Constancia named Constancia AquaTech. This subsidiary oversees a desalination plant in the island city of Astérapolis, which was the capital of Constancia from 1667 AN until 1694 AN. The plant has a daily output of 300,000 cubic meters of fresh water for Astérapolis.

The company is also in the planning and construction phase of a new facility in Oportia, focused on the growing capital and largest port, Vanie. This facility will include both a desalination and water purification plant, aimed at serving the increasing water demands of the region. This expansion reflects HydroPurify's ongoing efforts to provide sustainable water solutions internationally.

Environmental Practices

The company stands out for its responsible handling of desalination byproducts. HydroPurify has developed a method to repurpose the resulting brine into products like road de-icers and mineral-extraction reagents. By finding multiple applications for the byproducts, HydroPurify not only mitigates environmental damage but also generates an additional revenue stream.

Financial Performance

As of 2022, HydroPurify reported a revenue of €1.5 billion NAX€ with an operating income of €200 million. The company is traded on the Nouvelle Alexandrie Stock Exchange.
