Reliable water,
Even where freshwater runs short.

We design, build, and operate desalination plants that convert seawater and brackish water into a reliable source of high-quality potable and industrial water.

Securing supply from
non-conventional sources.

Cekap Air extends its water treatment expertise to desalination, providing engineered solutions that convert seawater and brackish water into water fit for potable and industrial use.

As part of our total water management approach, desalination projects draw on the same disciplined design, procurement, construction, and commissioning process applied across our treatment portfolio — paired with advanced membrane and filtration technologies to ensure consistent water quality and operational efficiency.

Treatment systems we deploy

Our solutions incorporate proven and cutting-edge technologies, selected to suit the specific requirements of each project and environment.

Feasibility & Process Design

Evaluation of source water characteristics to determine the optimal desalination process for the site.

Design, Procurement & Construction

Full EPC delivery of desalination facilities, scaled to potable or industrial demand.

Membrane & Filtration Technology

Reverse Osmosis and supporting filtration systems engineered for reliable, high-quality output.

Operation & Maintenance

Long-term plant operation support to sustain performance and product water quality.

Seawater vs Brackish water,
Choosing the right process

Source water characteristics drive every design decision. Our feasibility work starts here, before a single component is specified.

High-salinity coastal sources

  • Typical salinity: 35,000+ mg/L TDS
  • Requires high-pressure Reverse Osmosis
  • Intake design must manage marine intake/outfall
  • Best suited to coastal industrial or municipal supply

Lower-salinity inland or estuarine sources

  • Typical salinity: 1,000–10,000 mg/L TDS
  • Lower-pressure RO, reduced energy demand
  • Simpler intake and pre-treatment requirements
  • Well suited to inland industrial or agricultural users

Full-scope construction & installation

Our water treatment work spans the complete project lifecycle:

Raw water intake & pumping plan

Clarifier & sedimentation tank installation

Lamella trough & plate fabrication

Filter slab casting & pressure filter systems

Chemical & chlorine plant installation

Treated water pumping & pipework

Testing, commissioning & handover

Long-term O&M programmes
