Company Overview
Snapshot
Founded in February 2009, ROTEC operates with 1-10 employees. The company has secured funding across four rounds from four investors. In February 2018, AdEdge Water Technologies entered an exclusive licensing agreement with ROTEC to commercialize and distribute its Flow-Reversal Reverse Osmosis technology in North America.
Business overview
ROTEC specializes in developing mineral scaling-prevention technologies for the water treatment industry. Its core offering, the Flow Reversal technology, prevents biofouling and mineral scaling on membranes and pipes by periodically reversing the flow of feed water. This innovation enhances the recovery rate of desalination plants, reduces brine volumes, minimizes antiscalant consumption, and lowers the cost of desalinated water. ROTEC's solutions are applicable across various water treatment infrastructures, including industrial reuse and municipal wastewater treatment, serving the Industrial Technologies sector.
Strategic signal
In February 2019, ROTEC's Flow Reversal method was highlighted for significantly boosting the recovery rate of reverse osmosis (RO) systems. This technological advancement allows RO systems to operate at higher recovery rates, reducing brine volume and increasing permeate production, while also decreasing membrane cleaning frequency and extending membrane lifespan. This signals ROTEC's continued leadership in sustainable water solutions and its potential to address global water scarcity challenges through enhanced desalination efficiency.
