The Balearic Water and Environmental Quality Agency (ABAQUA) has awarded the joint venture formed by Tedagua and Global Omnium the contract for the supply, installation, and commissioning of a containerized reverse osmosis desalination plant. This facility will expand the Sant Antoni de Portmany desalination station (IDAM) in Ibiza. The new infrastructure will have a maximum production capacity of 1,000 m³/day of drinking water for human consumption and is set to be launched soon.
This initiative addresses the urgent need to ensure water supply on the island in anticipation of potential drought alerts, in line with the Special Action Plan for Alert and Eventual Drought Situations in the Balearic Islands (PESIB). Its goal is to reduce pressure on aquifers and strengthen the island’s response capacity during peak demand periods.
The SW10 plant is a modular, portable, and rapidly deployable solution ideal for areas with limited space or access, using state-of-the-art reverse osmosis technology
The SW10 plant stands out for its containerized design — a modular, portable, and rapidly deployable solution ideal for areas with limited space or access. These units use state-of-the-art reverse osmosis technology, ensuring high energy efficiency and excellent water quality. Their versatility makes them especially suitable for temporary projects, emergency situations, or installations in sectors such as tourism.
With this new contract, Tedagua expands its range of compact desalination solutions, which includes models like the TED SW27 (2,700 m³/day), TED SW13 (1,300 m³/day), and TED SW5 (500 m³/day), also designed in a single container for space-constrained environments. The TED SW5 can even operate in areas without access to electricity thanks to its use of renewable energy sources.
This project reinforces Tedagua’s position as a strategic partner in water treatment and management, serving the needs of over 20 million people worldwide. The company reaffirms its commitment to sustainable development and technological innovation to ensure access to high-quality water for future generations.
