NONA Technologies develops portable desalination devices using Ion Concentration Polarization, a patented alternative to Reverse Osmosis. The technology removes salt and pathogens without heat or pressure, enabling low-power, off-grid operation. Devices are designed for ease of use, with simple interfaces suitable for children. The company won the MIT $100K Entrepreneurship Competition in 2022.
