Aquatech International Corporation
About
Founded in 1981 and headquartered in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, Aquatech International is a global water treatment technology and services company with over 2,000 installations across 60-plus countries, treating more than 1.6 billion gallons of water daily. Led by CEO Devesh Sharma and Executive Chairman Venkee Sharma, Aquatech was named Water Technology Company of the Year at the 2025 Global Water Summit. The company's membrane portfolio includes HERO high-efficiency RO, ARRO advanced recovery RO, LoWatt low-energy SWRO, Q-SEP hollow fiber UF, CeraQ ceramic UF, EnviQ submerged UF, RecovOAR osmotically assisted RO, and AVMD vacuum membrane distillation. Biological treatment technologies are marketed under the BioMOD brand, covering anaerobic MBR, MBBR, DAF, EGSB, aerobic MBR, and the iGBR granular sludge bioreactor. Pure water technologies feature FEDI fractional electrodeionization, PureMOD high-rate clarification, and PureMOD ultrapure water systems. For desalination, Aquatech offers DesalMOD modular systems and the DesalPro AI-powered optimization platform. Thermal solutions encompass evaporators and crystallizers for zero liquid discharge. The company has expanded into critical minerals with the PEARL lithium extraction platform and Li-Pro direct lithium extraction acquired from Koch Technology Solutions, and into PFAS destruction via the De-Fluoro technology partnership with AECOM. Digital solutions include BioFilmPro biofilm control and TowerTrak cooling tower management. Aquatech also provides mobile water treatment services and performance chemicals, and is ISO 9001:2015 certified.
