IDE Solutions
Enriching our world with advanced water and energy solutions
IDE has deployed approximately 400 plants in more than 40 countries worldwide, and strives to continue broadening its offerings to solve an even wider range of the world’s clean water challenges.
Drawing from core competencies in membrane and thermal desalination, industrial evaporators and heat pumps, IDE currently produces advanced green solutions for diverse water and energy applications, including water and effluent purification, mine cooling, snow making, thermal energy storage and district heating.
IDE’s solutions portfolio includes state-of-the-art solutions in the following desalination and water treatment domains:
Thermal Distillation
IDE is internationally recognized as a pioneer and leader in the delivery of Thermal Distillation plants. IDE's Low Temperature Thermal Distillation units are capable of producing boiler feed water from sea water. They are available in two versions differentiated by the method used for the supply of energy: 1) Mechanical Vapor Compression (MVC), a proprietary electrically-driven mechanical compressor; and 2) Multi Effect Distillation (MED), a low pressure steam process.

In 2005, IDE completed the construction and launch of the world largest SWRO plant in Ashkelon, Israel, with an annual capacity of 118 Million cubic meters. Since then, IDE has built another 127 Million cubic meter SWRO plant in Hadera, Israel, and has won a tender for the building of a 150 Million cubic meter SWRO plant in Soreq, Israel. Each of the above-mentioned plants was and currently is the largest SWRO desalination plant of its kind in the world. IDE has continuously succeeded in gradually and dramatically reducing the overall desalinated water costs on long-term BOT contracts.
IDE's Reverse Osmosis (RO) plants leverage the accumulated experience, technological excellence and know-how that it has built over forty five years, an unmatched record that has made IDE the clear leader of the world desalination market in general, and mega-size SWRO in particular. RO desalination plants are used for treating the full range of water compositions, including tap water, brackish water (BWRO) and sea water (SWRO).
Industrial Water Treatment
IDE’s advanced industrial water treatment solutions take a comprehensive, integrated, end-to-end approach to the water treatment needs of the oil & gas and coal power industries.
Leveraging advanced thermal and membrane technologies refined over half a century, IDE’s systems offer a broad range of unique features and benefits, including a horizontal modular design, that reduce field set-up costs and facilitate fast installation. Once deployed, the systems’ remote monitoring and control features make them easy to operate and maintain while assuring highest availability over decades of use. Learn more
Snowmaking & Refrigeration
IDE's Snowmaking & Refrigeration applications use Vacuum Ice Making (VIM) technology to generate Ice/Snow at any ambient temperature. IDE's VIM technology offers energy efficient, low operation cost and environmental friendly solutions.
