IDE Technologies (Israel), a world leader in water treatment solutions, announced the opening of a new regional office in Dubai, IDE Meyah Water Solutions, in an effort to grow the company’s presence in MENA and deliver industry-leading water treatment solutions to local industries and municipalities.
The move supports IDE’s mission to provide seawater desalination plants, end-to-end water treatment solutions and water reclamation and purification to regions in need.
An IDE is a world power in building desalination plants. It is justified to say, that Israel supplies the world with water. The IDE built the largest desalination plant of China (Tianjin Desalination Plant), the largest desalination plant of the western hemisphere (Carlsbad Desalination Plant), the largest desalination plat of India (Gujarat Reliance) and finally, you guess, the largest desalination plant of the world (Sorek Desalination Plant).
This plant produces daily with reverse osmosis about 624,000 m³/day (26,000 m³/hour) water. IDE partners with a wide range of customers – municipalities, oil & gas, mining, refineries, and power plants – on all aspects of water projects and delivers approximately 3 million m3/day of high quality water worldwide.
“The UAE has been a strategic area of growth for IDE for some time, and we’re thrilled to now have a physical presence in the region,” said Mohamed Sebbane, Regional Manager, MENA, IDE Technologies. “This regional office opening will improve our ability to connect with existing and prospective customers, further growing our understanding of their unique water treatment needs and how IDE can partner with them for a more sustainable water future.” The IDE Meyah Water Solutions office is located in downtown Dubai, Boulevard Plaza, Tower 1, 3rd floor.
Last year in November, IDE won the tender for the Israel’s seventh desalination plant in the Western Galilee region, which will be the first plant constructed in the northern part of Israel. The plant, once in operation, will produce 100 million cubic meters of desalinated water annually, improving the reliability of Israel’s water supply to Haifa, the Western Galilee and Upper Galilee regions. Finally, IDE will build a $5.5 billion desalination plant in Mexico, to supply the US state of Arizona with drinking water.
Israel does not only feed the world, but supplies the world with water.
