Water treatment applications in the energy industry
Energy production is one of the sectors in which water plays a key role. From steam turbine operation to cooling processes to make-up water preparation and wastewater management, power facilities require high-quality, properly treated water at every stage. Since water quality directly affects power plant efficiency, equipment lifetime and environmental sustainability, the selection of appropriate treatment technologies is of great importance.
Modern water treatment solutions are designed to meet the increasing demands of efficiency and sustainability in the energy sector. Systems such as reverse osmosis, deionization, electrodeionization and chemical treatment optimize energy production processes while minimizing environmental impact. In addition, these systems contribute to the conservation of natural resources by providing solutions related to water recovery and reuse.
Take a look at applications in the energy industry.
Boiler feed water treatment
Ensures high purity water to prevent scale formation and corrosion in boilers, optimizing steam generation and energy efficiency.

In the energy sector, effective water treatment is crucial to maintain operational reliability and meet environmental standards. Filtox offers a range of advanced water treatment solutions tailored to the specific needs of energy and power generation facilities.
Boiler feed water treatment
High-purity water is essential for boiler systems to prevent scale formation and corrosion, which can lead to equipment failure and reduced efficiency. Our demineralization systems, including reverse osmosis (RO) and electrodeionization (EDI) units, effectively remove dissolved solids and contaminants, ensuring the longevity and performance of your boilers.
Cooling tower water treatment
Cooling towers are an integral part of power plants, but are susceptible to problems such as fouling, scaling and corrosion. Filtox offers filtration and chemical dosing systems designed to maintain optimum water quality, improve heat exchange efficiency and extend the life of your cooling infrastructure.
Condensate polishing
To protect turbines and other critical components, it is vital to purify condensate return streams. Our condensate polishing systems use ion exchange resins to remove impurities and ensure that only high-quality water flows through the system, reducing maintenance costs and downtime.
Wastewater treatment and reuse
Environmental regulations require power plants to manage wastewater responsibly. Filtox offers advanced treatment solutions that allow wastewater to be recycled and reused, reducing freshwater consumption and minimizing environmental impact. Our technologies ensure compliance with strict discharge regulations while promoting sustainable operations.
