## Summary

Eden Technologies' official website describes the Reverse Osmosis Centrifuge (ROC) — a patented device intended to retrofit into existing reverse osmosis desalination infrastructure to increase freshwater recovery and enable zero liquid discharge. The site presents the company's technology claims, pilot deployments, and contact information.

## Useful Claims

- The ROC applies centrifugal force to the reverse osmosis brine-side process to extract more water before disposal.
- The company claims approximately 2x freshwater yield improvement and a 15% recovery rate increase over conventional reverse osmosis operation.
- Pilot deployments are reported with Navajo Nation and in Saudi Arabia — two contexts with very different water chemistry and operational environments.
- The company was founded in 2020 as a spinout from Utah Tech University by Hunter Manz (CEO) and Zachary Manweiler.
- Funding as of 2023: approximately $750K seed plus $250K from the Utah Innovation Fund.
- Zero liquid discharge is presented as a design goal — full water extraction leaving only solid mineral waste.

## Reliability Notes

This is a company's own website at early seed stage. Claims about performance (2x yield, 15% recovery improvement) are company-reported from small-scale or pilot tests; independent engineering validation at industrial scale has not been published. The site is the primary public source for Eden Tech's own description of the technology, but all performance figures should be treated as self-reported until independently verified. KUER and Utah Business coverage corroborate the funding and founding narrative but not the technical performance claims.
