 TESTIMONIALS :

I have seen thousands of desalination plants, sold, owned and operated them probably before you knew what desalination meant.  There is simply no comparison, and no match to Dean Bedford on this planet when it comes to designing and building a true seawater reverse osmosis plant that works and where the owner achieves lowest cost of operation and maintenance.   If you own a business that needs to produce potable water from seawater, Dean is the man to know and Gemini the system to use.    Operating a desalination unit cost more than the equipment price, so thinking cheap upfront just going to cost you a mint in just a couple of years.   Dean's plants will last you over twenty years, they are all around the Caribbean and the Northern Marianas.  I am David Grunau, the founder of Polymetrics, the pioneer and world leader in seawater reverse osmosis desalination in the 70's, and former President of Aqua Design Inc., a pioneer in water sales and supply in desalting.  Dean was my former employee, and now a good friend, and if I need to buy or modernize a desalination plant, he is the only one I need to contact.  I am very glad that Dean has teamed up with another old friend, James Chua, and that would be a great team for developing desalination in the Pacific.

Hello,  I am Christian S. Miller, and for those in the Caribbean, you may remember when I was the Managing Director Desalcott - the Desalination Company of Trinidad and Tobago Limited, where we built and operated the US$140 million 110,000 cubic meter per day seawater reverse osmosis system at Point Lisas Trinidad; the largest desalination plant in the Western Hemisphere.

 

I been in the desalination business since 1972 where we built  Polymetrics Inc., the firm that pioneered the commercialization of reverse osmosis membrane technology.   In 1983, I co-founded Aqua Design which constructed and owned 32 plants on 10 Caribbean Islands and provided emergency water supply for the US Navy base at Guantanemo.  I was also a technical consultant to Hyflux of Singapore when they first ventured into seawater desalination.

 

My firend and colleague  Dean Bedford has recently founded Gemini Seawater Systems.   I relied heavily on Dean when we had difficult situations because of his extensive theoritical knowledge of the technologies involved in desalination and his practical experience in solving problems related to desalination plant operations and plant redesign and modernization.   Dean has teamed up with James Chua to develop the Pacific markets to provide owners and users of desalination plants with the most cost effective technology to modernize their plants.  I highly recommend Dean and James and regulary seek their advise in regards to seawater systems and market development.
