Desalination company OceanWell in talks with potential Arizona customers

Arizona looks to desalination to secure new water supplies. Desalination is the process of taking ocean water and removing the salt. Startup OceanWell is still in the research and development phase. Their technology is different from onshore desalination because it takes place 400 meters below the ocean's surface and uses water pressure to save on energy costs.
