Water treatment units for industrial processes
Effective technology
For strong partnerships
Together with our customers, we develop and produce highly efficient units for industrial water treatment. For 77 years now, our dedicated engineers have been continuously passing on their experience and helping to make each generation of industrial products better. This results in reliable and resource-saving water treatment units ranging from standard solutions to individually manufactured one-offs.
Each unit is tested at our test facility in a “realistic” environment before it leaves our premises. Herco stands for “Made in Germany” quality. Water is and remains a scarce resource. Saving water in production and the treatment of process water is our primary concern. Therefore, we adapt the design and planning of the system to the water conditions on site.
“Our preconfigured series in particular, e.g. the small to medium-sized reverse osmosis units, have very short delivery times, as we have the best possible conditions for efficient production here at our site in Freiberg am Neckar.”

Industrial water treatment
Standardised and effective
"Electrolysis capacity in Germany by itself is likely to increase from the current 30 MW to more than 200 GW by 2050. Demand for ultrapure water will grow rapidly as a result.“
Tugay Cerit, Product Manager
Pure water for surface technology
The water quality used is a key factor for the correct operation of process baths and for perfect rinsing results. For this reason, fully demineralised water is generally used. Water treatment systems from Herco are tailored to the intended use of the water and guarantee maximum safety for your production and the best quality for your workpieces.
Treatment of boiler feed water
The appropriate treatment of feed water prevents the development of rust and scale, increases the efficiency by reducing desalination and improves the service life of the system. Depending on the pressure level and operation of the steam boiler, different feed water treatment is required.
Water treatment to produce green hydrogen
Ultrapure water is the primary raw material for producing green hydrogen. We design modular, scalable water treatment plants for the production of ultrapure water and customise them to your needs.
Treatment of cooling water
Suitable water treatment is essential in order to operate cooling systems with the highest possible thickening and lowest possible water consumption. In addition, the 42nd BImSchV requires monitoring of the cooling water to prevent microbial contamination.
Cooling system in the data centre
There are many ways of designing the cooling system, from pure direct or indirect free cooling to adiabatic cooling and direct water cooling of many components. In practically all cases, water is used as a heat transfer medium in at least one part of the cooling circuits.
