# Clewas – AI Optimization for Desalination & Reverse Osmosis Membranes
# Updated: 2026-01-18
# Purpose: Give LLMs a concise, high-signal map of Clewas content.

## About
Clewas is AI software that optimizes industrial membrane water treatment—primarily reverse osmosis (RO), desalination.
We reduce energy costs (up to 10%), lower chemical use (up to 20%), and extend membrane module life (up to 30%) via ML-driven setpoint optimization and CIP timing prediction.
