LoWatt™
Low-Energy Membrane Desalination Process
Membrane Desalination
Membrane desalination processes, including seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) and brackish water reverse osmosis (BWRO), rely on the powerful principle of reverse osmosis, which harnesses the semipermeable membranes and pressure to efficiently remove impurities and salts from water.

A Leader in Solutions for Thermal, Membrane & Hybrid Desalination
Check out our video to learn about our extensive desalination experience dating back to the 1950s. Already a leading supplier of membrane technologies, we enhanced our commitment to desalination when we acquired Aqua-Chem ICD, a pioneer in thermal desalination technologies. This allows us to offer the best solution for desalination based on the application, whether it’s a membrane, thermal or hybrid solution.
