X-Flow signed an agreement with IVM
Minrav Sadyt to supply its Seaguard
ultrafiltration (UF) membranes and skids
to the Ashdod SWRO plant in Israel. With
a UF permeate capacity of 930 MLD (245
MGD), the plant will supply 100 million
cubic meters of desalinated water a year
to become the first potable water plant
built under the government’s emergency
plan for the water economy in Israel.
Once completed, Ashdod will be one
of the largest SWRO plant with UF as
pre-treatment in operation worldwide.

comprised of Israel’s Minrav Holding Ltd.
and Spain’s SADyT, won the international

Enterprise Ltd. to build the seawater
desalination plant at Ashdod. IVM will
design, build, commission and operate
the plant for two years. Scheduled to run
at full production by December, 2013, the
Ashdod plant will produce desalinated
water amounting to 15 percent of Israel’s
domestic water consumption. Once the
