Sustainable desalination:
a mastered water treatment solution... ...for various applications
An ecological solution:
With the Degrémont solution,
the Environment is protected:
A flexible solution:
• Energy needs can be met from renewable
The Degrémont solution is suited to all contexts: energy sources such as wind, tidal or solar
power,
• Use in coastal areas to treat seawater, or inland • Special design of the water intakes ensuring
to treat brackish water, no impact on the aquatic environment,
• Freshwater production automatically adjustable • Treatment of washing water before discharge
according to seasonal variations, and diffusion of brine without disrupting the
• Supply from various energy sources (steam, aquatic equilibrium.
