Moerk Water is a finalist in the Banksia National Sustainability Awards, and now we’re also in the running for the People’s Choice Award. Our solar-powered water system at Wongutha CAPS has provided nearly 5 million litres of clean drinking water, helping an Indigenous vocational school cut costs, improve student health, and build long-term water security. This project is proof that renewable-powered water solutions can make a real difference. We’d love your support to help it get the recognition it deserves.

Another Seawater Unit on the Move! There’s nothing quite like seeing one of our seawater desalination units getting loaded up and shipped off, knowing it's going to make an impact. Built to handle tough conditions and designed to deliver clean water where it’s needed most. Because for coastal communities and island nations, reliable access to fresh water shouldn’t be out of reach. #Seawater #Desalination #CleanWater #MoerkWater #Sustainability #WaterTreatment #Pacific #Renewables #BuiltToLast

Reverse Osmosis (RO) has transformed the way we access clean water. As one of the most effective water treatment technologies available, RO systems remove salts, impurities, and contaminants, delivering safe, high-quality water where it’s needed most. 𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗥𝗢 𝘀𝗼 𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗹? Originally developed in the 1950s, Reverse Osmosis was first used for seawater desalination in the 1960s, revolutionising water treatment by offering a membrane-based, energy-efficient process. Unlike thermal desalination methods, RO relies on pressure, not heat, to force water through a semi-permeable membrane—removing up to 99% of dissolved salts, bacteria, and impurities. Its scalability, high recovery rates, and ability to produce high-quality water with relatively low energy consumption (especially when paired with renewables) have made RO the gold standard for desalination worldwide. But not all water sources are the same. The right solution depends on the type of water being treated: 𝗕𝗿𝗮𝗰𝗸𝗶𝘀𝗵 𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 – Brackish water, typically found in groundwater sources, has lower salinity than seawater, meaning it requires less energy for treatment. RO systems for brackish water are cost-effective, energy-efficient, and ideal for agriculture, industry, and inland communities. 𝗦𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗿 – With oceans covering over 70% of the planet, seawater desalination is key to addressing water scarcity. While seawater has higher salinity and requires more energy for treatment, solar-powered RO systems are making seawater desalination more sustainable than ever—perfect for coastal communities and island nations. Moerk Water designs tailored RO systems—from renewable-powered brackish water units for agriculture and industrial use to seawater desalination systems bringing clean water to remote communities across the Asia-Pacific. Same base technology. Different challenges. Tailored solutions. #Desalination #ReverseOsmosis #CleanWater #BrackishWater #Desalination #Sustainability #WaterTreatment #Industrial #MoerkWater #Australia #Pacific #WaterSolutions

We were doing some work in the Pilbara so you know we had to stop at the Big Wheelbarrow! #WaterTreatment #Water #Sustainability #WA #Consultancy #OnTheRoad

Moerk Water’s first trip to PNG this year has just wrapped up, and Barbara Brezger, our Director of International Business Development, had such a fulfilling visit. It was an incredible moment as we set up the seawater desalination plant at the YWAM Medical Ship Campus, bringing safe drinking water to neighboring communities. Under the guidance of Campus Leader Matt Scott, young men from Varipori Village and Emanuel from Hela Province learned how to dig a well, connect tanks, and operate the desalination system—empowering them to manage their own water supply. What a week it was! Beyond providing clean water, we also promoted the use of reusable bottles, helping to reduce plastic waste and encourage sustainable habits. One of the most rewarding moments? Seeing guests and locals experience clean, safe drinking water straight from the system for the first time—a powerful reminder of the impact reliable water access can have. At Moerk Water, we design our seawater desalination systems to retain the right balance of minerals, ensuring the water is not just safe but great-tasting too. More to come from this trip—stay tuned! #CleanWater #WaterTrearment #RO #Sustainability #Desalination #MoerkWater #RenewableEnergy #Pacific #PNG #Empowerment #RemoteCommunities

What It Takes to Thrive in Remote and Challenging Locations Providing clean, reliable water in remote areas isn’t simply about installing a treatment unit—it’s about understanding the conditions, designing for longevity, and ensuring long-term support. Challenging locations demand innovative solutions. Extreme weather, poor infrastructure, fluctuating water quality, and lack of reliable power sources all add complexity. In these environments, your typical off-the-shelf solutions don’t cut it. So what does it take to truly make an impact? 🔹Engineering for resilience – Systems must be robust, efficient, and adaptable to the specific challenges of each location. 🔹Sustainable energy integration – Many remote areas have limited grid access, making solar-powered and hybrid solutions essential. 🔹Local empowerment – A system is only as good as the people running it. Training operators and ensuring local maintenance is key to longevity. 🔹Smart water management – Every drop counts. Brine reuse, closed-loop solutions, and smart monitoring make all the difference in resource efficiency. At Moerk Water, we’ve built systems that have thrived in the Pacific, remote Australia, and beyond, proving that with the right approach, sustainable, long-lasting water solutions are possible anywhere. What are the biggest challenges you see in water treatment for remote areas? Let’s have a chat. #WaterTreatment #Sustainability #CleanWater #Engineering #MoerkWater #ClimateResilience #RemoteCommunities

This week, we’re celebrating Christian O., who has brought energy, positivity, and unwavering reliability to Moerk Water.
