Industrial water treatment

Effective and reliable industrial water treatment is essential for safe and efficient processes

For safe and efficient processes industrial water treatment is mandatory.

Industrial water treatment is an essential activity in a multitude of sectors. The challenge for plant operators is to reconcile efficiency and safety by optimizing treatment costs for industrial water without endangering its intended use within a process. From cooling or steam in production, to specified process water, to direct human consumption, treatment needs vary for quality, composition and pH. Our industrial water treatment portfolio enables efficiencies in any situation.

Key facts

20%

of the global water consumption

can be traced back to industries. In developed countries this number is significantly higher.

Cooling and boiling water

Corrosion, fouling, and scaling hamper the effectiveness of cooling and boiling processes and can cause severe health problems. Filtration of cooling water, and dosing with biocides to prevent the growth of algae, fungi, and bacteria, are standard practices. Effectiveness of these processes depends upon reliable, ongoing monitoring of water parameters such as pH and oxygen levels.

Our expertise in the field

Our portfolio for liquid analysis includes digital sensors and transmitters, as well as customizable analytical panels for dependable monitoring of key parameters:
