Atlantis’s uses radial deionization technology, RDI™, each pair of super capacitors forms a “cell”. Up to 100 cells are layered together to form the RDI™ cylinder. The wastewater stream flows through the dielectric spacers within the cylinder with a minimal pressure drop. RDI™ cylinder is designed to remove all or most of the salt. Because of minimal pressure drop, multiple cylinders can be operated in series and at high flow rates, enabling processing of high total dissolved solids (TDS) streams without the need for intermediate storage. Each device removes a portion of ions from the stream until the target dissolved solids level is reached. This design aspect of the RDI™ Desalination System is critical to its superior performance and a key difference between RDI™ and other versions of capacitive deionization.The processing capacity of a large-scale cylinder is up to 5 gpm depending on salinity of water
