Company founded in 1992 in Gran Canaria, has centered the investigations on subjects of energy recovery in plants of reverse osmosis. The development of the "Aqualyng Recovery" allowed the creation of a marketing and production center in Gran Canaria known like Water Lyng S.L, in 1999.
AqualyngAS was constituted as a main office in Norway in autumn of 2002. At the moment, all the projects, are managed, designed, produced and embarked from Norway to all the world. AqualyngAS has sales subsidiaries, operations and marketing in the Canary Islands, Spain, Morocco, Egypt and Taiwan.
Technology:
The Aqualyng system uses the energy of the brine in a special equipment, called Recuperator, to pump the pre-treated seawater to the same pressure that the brine flow.The Recuperator acts as a pump of positive displacement driven hydraulically by the brine.
