US-based water treatment solutions provider Desalitech has partnered with Japan-based engineering, procurement and construction company Toyo Engineering Corporation to introduce high-efficiency water treatment solutions to Japanese and East Asian Markets.

Toyo senior executive officer Kumar Akhilesh said that the company’s goal is to reduce the customer’s water and energy footprint while increasing process reliability and flexibility.

"This combination of better performance and greater environmental responsibility is important for Japanese and global markets," Akhilesh added.
