XPLORATION COASTLINE
A DEMONSTRATOR PROVIDING 1000m3 WATER PER 24 HOURS
FRESHWATER CONFERENCE COMING UP
MAY 17th-19th IN CURACAO!
Coastline is an Xploration to realize a floating sustainable freshwater installation that converts seawater into clean drinking water using 100% green energy and zero waste.
Coastline is a fast and flexible solution, suitable for deployment at coastal locations with acute or persistent water shortages due to natural disasters, drought or salinization. The unmanned plant produces one million liters of fresh water daily. This is enough to provide fresh drinking water on a daily basis to more than 65,000 people in the event of an emergency, or structurally to a small community of 10,000 households. Coastline produces fresh water with 100% green energy, innovative water purification and zero-emission technology, developed in open innovation by technology partners.
Coastline can be deployed on a price per day basis. Through the combination of financial leasing with full operational management and maintenance, no long-term investments and commitments are required, and payment is according to use. Depending on the pricing of water, deployment of Coastline is rapidly profitable compared to all other alternatives.
To realize the first full-size demonstrator in Xploration Coastline, OceansX invites, engages, connects and mobilizes leading partners from the private sector, research institutions, NGOs and government. In a “quadruple-helix” mission-driven open innovation approach, a joint introduction of the Coastline is targeted in Q1 – 2023.
Coastline assumes a modular integration of innovative technologies and systems for water purification, renewable energy and zero emission. Its development is based on the open innovation model, offering valuable opportunities to tackle collective challenges and find new ways to solve urgent problems. The open innovation model offers enormous potential for social and technological value creation.
The Coastline demonstrator will remain available as a living lab providing a right to pilot for energy, agri & food, smart cities and water innovations.
GET INVOLVED
Join Coastline to support our mission in providing clean drinking water worldwide and develop new technologies in an open innovation environment.

Xploration – Enhanced Atmospheric Methane Oxidation Research Field Experiments
Xploration EAMO is to assess the feasibility of removing methane from the exhaust gasses of a ship (and the atmosphere) by catalyzing chlorine chemistry in the plume of the ship. Methane is a strong pollutant with climate forcing and other dangerous effects. The technique is called Enhanced Atmospheric Methane Oxidation (EAMO).
