Application 01
Solvent recovery from coatings and printing
Capture and reuse process solvents from gravure, flexo, and coater operations, for VOC permit relief and solvent purchase savings.

Industrial Manufacturing & Environmental
plants and separation, end to end.
Manufacturing and environmental scope splits between the equipment we build for the line and the patented recovery systems we add to it. Pressure vessels, skid-mounted process systems, packaged plants, and on-site mechanical work for fabs, coatings, food, and chemical operators, plus our own membrane systems for VOC capture, industrial wastewater treatment, water reuse and zero liquid discharge, and solvent recovery. Engineered for closed-loop and environmental compliance where it makes sense.
What you get
Outcomes our customers see.
Specific to industrial manufacturing & environmental.
- Process water recycle ratio
- Up to 95%
- RO with AQUA-SEP® on the reject recovers up to about 95% of the water, cutting freshwater draw and discharge volume in tandem.
- Separated VOCs recovered
- 100%
- VOC-SEP® recovers all separated components for reuse, with zero air or water emissions.
- Clean water from wastewater
- 70%
- Sarnia Lean Water pilot: three industrial wastewater feeds over six months, with 95% of the organics recovered as high-BTU fuel.

The specific scopes and separation problems we solve for industrial manufacturing & environmental operators.
Application 02
Industrial wastewater treatment and reuse
Recover process water from effluents at refineries, chemical plants, and food processors. Membrane distillation and VMD handle leachates and high-salinity streams that defeat RO. Permit relief, freshwater savings, and tipped-fee elimination in one move.
Application 03
Water reuse and zero liquid discharge
Closed-loop recovery from cooling towers, rinse tanks, and CIP systems, and RO-reject concentration toward ZLD-ready volumes ahead of crystallization.
Application 04
Semiconductor and electronics process water
Treat ultrapure water reject and process effluent for return to the fab loop, compatible with leading-edge materials-of-construction requirements.
Application 05
Reactor and dryer exhaust VOC capture
Vapor permeation taps directly into reactor and dryer offgas to recover solvents, often re-entering the process as virgin equivalent, and to cut emissions.
Fabrication scope
What we build for this sector.
Manufacturing and environmental projects often start with a fabrication scope, a vessel, a skid, a packaged unit, and grow into a recovery system once the operator sees the savings. We build the line and the loop in the same shop.
Skids
Skid-mounted process systems
Modular process and utility skids, engineered, packaged, and shipped ready to commission.

Membrane technologies
The right process for the fluid.
Manufacturing and environmental streams come in two flavors: solvent-bearing vapor and process-water liquid. Vapor permeation handles the first. Pervaporation, MD, VMD, or SLS handles the second, with crystallization at the tail for ZLD-mandated sites. We pair them when both exist on the same site, which is more often than not.
VP
Vapor Permeation
Vapor-phase separation for solvent dehydration and VOC recovery in chemical and pharmaceutical operations.

PV
Pervaporation
Selective separation of liquid mixtures, including the azeotropes that distillation cannot break.
Learn more
MD
Membrane Distillation
Thermally driven separation for fluids that defeat conventional distillation.
Learn more
VMD
Vacuum Membrane Distillation
High-recovery treatment for high-salinity and complex feeds where reverse osmosis cannot go.
Learn more
ZLD
Zero Liquid Discharge
Closed-loop systems that recover water and isolate solids for industrial wastewater.
Learn more
SLS
Solid-Liquid Separation
Recover the water and the solids from a stream, using membrane distillation.
