Marine freshwater distillation system
freshwater distiller
energy-efficient freshwater production for any vessel.
The Freshwater Distiller is a vacuum evaporation system designed to convert seawater into high-quality distilled water for offshore platforms and marine vessels. Utilising waste heat sources, it provides an energy-efficient and reliable supply of technical or potable water while minimising maintenance requirements.
Process
Vacuum evaporation
Construction
Cupronickel, naval bronze, duplex & super duplex steel
Water quality
Salinity below 4 ppm

steam or thermal oil
Salinity
Below 4 ppm
distilled / technical water
energy-efficient distillation
The Freshwater Distiller uses vacuum evaporation to convert seawater into low-salinity distilled water, recovering waste heat from hot water, steam or thermal oil sources already available onboard to keep energy consumption down.
Process
Vacuum evaporation
Water quality
Below 4 ppm salinity
Distilled output can be mineralised and disinfected with an optional treatment system to make it suitable for human consumption.
Main features
- Produces distilled water using energy-efficient vacuum evaporation
- Operates using hot water, steam, or thermal oil as heat sources
- Manufactured from cupronickel, naval bronze, duplex, and super duplex steels for long service life
- Distilled water can be mineralised and disinfected for safe human consumption
Main advantages
- Recovers residual heat to reduce overall energy consumption
- Provides a continuous supply of low-salinity distilled water
- Robust marine-grade materials minimise servicing requirements
- Designed specifically for demanding offshore and marine environments
from seawater to freshwater
Waste heat already present onboard — hot water, steam or thermal oil — drives the vacuum evaporation process, turning seawater into a continuous supply of low-salinity distilled water.
Water quality
< 4 ppm
Heat source
Hot water / Steam / Oil
An optional mineraliser and disinfection system can convert distilled output into potable water.

energy efficiency by design
By recovering waste heat that's already available onboard, the Freshwater Distiller reduces the overall energy consumption of freshwater production compared with dedicated heating.
