Altela, Inc. offers a fundamentally different water desalination/decontamination solution inspired by nature itself. Through the use of its proprietary, patented AltelaRain® technology, Altela desalinates and decontaminates highly-challenged, frac flowback, brackish and produced water from shale fracking without the energy intensive equipment, high temperatures or pressure of other water desalination technologies.
