About

ROTEC develops mineral scaling-prevention technologies for the water treatment industry. The companys Flow Reversal technology inhibits biofouling and mineral scaling on the surface of membranes and pipes by periodically reversing the flow of feed water inside the pressure vessel, ensuring that scaling does not have time to form on membrane surfaces before being swept away by undersaturated feed solution conditions.

The implementation of scaling-prevention technology in membrane-based desalination plants can increase the process recovery rate, reduce brine volumes requiring disposal, minimize antiscalant consumption, and significantly reduce the cost of desalinated water.

ROTEC is a part of WFI Group (Water From Innovation Group).
