Danfoss experts will be on hand at EDS’ Desalination for the Environment – Clean Water and Energy Congress in Porto, Portugal to showcase energy-efficient pumps and active energy recovery devices that can help address water scarcity while supporting decarbonization efforts.
The Desalination for the Environment Congress gathers research scientists, decision-makers, utilities, and representatives from the public and private sectors to discuss how we can work together to address global water challenges in a sustainable manner. “The need for clean water has never been greater, and climate change-induced flooding and droughts are only exacerbating an already critical issue,” says Francisco Jiménez-Castellanos. “Desalination by means of seawater reverse osmosis is one of the most effective means of addressing water scarcity, but it is also highly energy intensive. At Danfoss, we are committed to reducing the energy cost of reverse osmosis, and at this year’s EDS we’ll show how our energy-efficient pumps and energy recovery devices do that.”
Congress attendees can meet with Danfoss experts at booth number A11 to learn more about our products for desalination and water reuse, including our range of APP high-pressure pumps and iSave/MPE energy recovery devices for SWRO plants of all sizes. Booth visitors can also speak with Danfoss representatives about the most energy-efficient way of tackling concrete projects and challenges.

The first active ERD for medium and large plants, the MPE 70 integrates highly effective isobaric pressure exchangers with a low-voltage motor to eliminate the risk of rotor overspin, reduce mixing and biofouling, and facilitate smarter automation. Covering train sizes from 1,500 m3/day and above.
The range of high-pressure APP pumps is optimized for both landbased, off-shore and marine sea water reverse osmosis applications. Available with or without motor.
With a 3-in-1 design that integrates highly effective isobaric pressure exchangers with positive displacement booster pumps and electrical motors, active iSave® ERDs deliver big energy savings in small spaces. Covering train sizes from 200-3,000 m3/day
The APP W HC pump is suitable for ZLD and MLD reverse osmosis applications used in industrial wastewater treatment.
