Industrial water prefers to partner with Burkert
Embrace the future of water treatment with our tailored automation solutions.
As global demand for water rises and resources become scarcer, the water industry increasingly turns to advanced automation and digital solutions. Our approach to Water Treatment 4.0 focuses on enhancing efficiency, productivity, and competitiveness while ensuring safe water supply and resource conservation. At the process level, we support you with solutions for the automation of ion exchangers, membrane filtration and media filtration with our range of sensors, valves, pneumatics and control cabinet technology.
By leveraging Burkert’s cutting-edge system solutions, along with comprehensive monitoring and diagnostic functions, we empower your water treatment processes for safe operations and preventive maintenance. This integration not only conserves resources but also facilitates automatic documentation and provides crucial insights.
Moreover, our innovative combination of automated processes, controllers, and measuring techniques can reduce energy consumption by up to one-third, all while maximising productivity and maintaining superior product quality.
Industries we partner with
We provide innovative water treatment solutions tailored to various industries, including air-conditioning, brewing, drinking water, irrigation, cooling towers, and fermentation. Our technology ensures optimal water quality, prevents corrosion, and enhances efficiency, supporting the unique needs of each sector.
Air-conditioning
We help prevent corrosion and deposition in air-conditioning systems by controlling makeup water quality through effective blending of raw and pure water.
Brewing
The taste of beer is largely influenced by brewing water quality. Our solutions enable nearly complete desalination of raw water, which is then blended to maintain the desired standards for exceptional flavour.
Drinking Water
With stringent quality requirements, we support drinking water suppliers in maintaining health standards through deionisation and reverse osmosis, followed by precise blending to meet local regulations.
Irrigation
To mitigate issues like soil over-salinisation, our blending units ensure optimal water quality, reducing chemical costs and enhancing irrigation efficiency, especially for large volumes.
Cooling Towers
Our solutions safeguard cooling tower operations by supplementing process water with make-up water, effectively preventing corrosion and maintaining necessary limit values.
Fermentation & Tank Blanketing
We provide tailored water treatment options for fermentation processes and tank blanketing, ensuring optimal conditions and product quality.
