Murcia, SpainMurcia, Spain – FARMWISE partner Cobet Tratamientos del Agua S.L. has been spotlighted in La VerdadLa Verdad, one of Spain’s leading newspapers, for its pioneering contribution to sustainable water management. Cobet’s Breakthrough in Water Reuse: The Evacold SystemCobet’s Breakthrough in Water Reuse: The Evacold SystemCobet’s Breakthrough in Water Reuse: The Evacold System The Evacold systemEvacold system, developed and patented by Cobet, offers a revolutionary approach to treating brackish well water and saline urban wastewaterbrackish well water and saline urban wastewater. It enables the evaporation of these wastewaters at temperatures below 40°Ctemperatures below 40°C, without requiring any environmental discharge, and is powered entirely by 100% renewable energy100% renewable energy. This process yields dry solid saltsdry solid salts that can be repurposed in sectors such as agriculture and industry—supporting a circular economy while aligning with the European Union’s Zero Pollution goalsZero Pollution goals. At the FARMWISE general assembly, Evacold was presented as a forward-looking solution that not only optimizes water use but also enables the reuse of treated wastewater for agricultural irrigationagricultural irrigation, helping farmers adapt to increasing water scarcity.
