RO systems
Hans Buch supplies RO (reverse osmosis) systems for efficient freshwater production from seawater and other water sources. We size solutions to match water quality, capacity requirements and operating conditions.
From seawater to clean freshwater with RO systems
No two water sources are alike. The composition of the raw water, the desired output and the specific operating conditions have a significant impact on how an RO system should be designed, sized and integrated. With Hans Buch A/S as your technical partner, you get a solution tailored to your water quality, capacity requirements and application.
RO systems, also known as reverse osmosis systems, are one of the most effective and sustainable methods of producing clean freshwater. Among other uses, the technology converts seawater into process water, service water and drinking water – with options for filtration, disinfection, hardness adjustment and mineralisation of the freshwater produced and stored.
At Hans Buch, we combine technical water expertise with extensive experience across industries. We help analyse water quality, define the requirements for the treated water and size the system to match the desired capacity and operating conditions. We also advise on the choice of membranes, components and system design to ensure the solution delivers the right performance, service life and energy efficiency.
For marine applications, Hans Buch A/S works with Evac Group and supplies RO solutions from brands including HEM® and Evac®. The systems are developed for reliable freshwater production at sea and can be adapted to different vessel types, space constraints and technical requirements. They are designed with a focus on energy efficiency, reliable operation, global service and compliance with applicable environmental and sustainability requirements.
But RO technology is not only relevant to marine applications. Hans Buch also supplies water treatment solutions to industries with stringent requirements for water quality and operational reliability – for example, manufacturing and OEMs, energy and climate control systems, boiler water, cooling water, railways, workshops, vehicle wash facilities and technical infrastructure.
With Hans Buch as your partner, you get more than just an RO system. You get a technical adviser who ensures that the solution is correctly sized, installed and optimised for your specific application. This can contribute to lower energy and chemical consumption, improved operational reliability, higher water quality and more sustainable use of water resources.
Hans Buch A/S also supplies a broader portfolio of marine solutions for total waste management – including freshwater production, wastewater treatment, wet waste treatment and dry waste treatment.

Benefits of an RO system
An RO system provides access to clean freshwater directly from seawater or other water sources. It also reduces the need to transport and store water, which can lower both operating costs and environmental impact.
Benefits include:
- consistent freshwater production
- high water quality
- lower operating costs
- reduced need for chemicals
- energy-efficient water treatment
- long service life and high operational reliability
