Desalitech, a global leader in reverse osmosis water treatment, recently announced that Jantje Johnson has joined their growing team. Johnson is well recognized for her industry knowledge in water and wastewater treatment. Most recently, Johnson was acting Founder and Principal of OrangeBoat, a technical consulting firm for membrane-based water treatment applications.

As a business development director, Johnson will support Desalitech’s corporate and municipal partners requiring industrial water treatment and reuse systems and services.

Traditional reverse osmosis is a 40-year-old technology subject to inefficiency and limitations. Desalitech revolutionary ReFlex products are the new reverse osmosis, saving users dramatic amounts of time, energy, water and money. Desalitech’s systems are used globally by Fortune 500 companies in a wide range of applications that require easy to operate, flexible systems for their water treatment operations.

For example, by replacing a 900 gallon per minute traditional reverse osmosis system with a Desalitech ReFlex system, over 130 million gallons of water can be saved every year. That’s enough for over 375,000 people and translates into an annual savings rate of over $1.5M in reduced water, wastewater and energy costs.

“Desalitech supplies industry leading reverse osmosis systems backed by an industry leading team. Many Desalitech clients are top Fortune 500 companies and industry leaders themselves. Those who demand a best in class product and service choose to partner with Desalitech. Jantje embodies this notion,” said Nadav Efraty, Desalitech CEO.

Over the course of Johnson’s career, she has developed and launched a proprietary web-based tool to optimize reverse osmosis operations and has been recognized as an expert in ,reverse osmosis. Johnson has a Bachelor of Science Degree in Chemical Engineering and has previously worked for The Dow Chemical Company, Filmtec and Nalco. Through her work at OrangeBoat, Johnson has provided technical support for membrane-based water treatment technologies for world leading companies such as Shell, Husky Energy, American Water Corporation and Suez Environment.

“I am looking forward to working with Desalitech’s talented and dynamic team at an exciting time in the company’s growth, and working closely with them to bring new, breakthrough reverse osmosis water treatment solutions to customers across the globe,” said Jantje Johnson.
