Discover WAVE PRO
Three Technologies. One Solution.
WAVE PRO Design Software
WAVE PRO (Water Application Value Engine) is an advanced online modeling platform that integrates ultrafiltration (UF), ion-exchange resins (IER), reverse osmosis (RO), and nanofiltration (NF) into a single, integrated design environment. Rather than modeling each process separately, WAVE PRO enables water professionals to evaluate how multiple technologies work together throughout the entire water treatment process, improving design accuracy, reducing complexity, and supporting better decision-making from concept through operation.
Built on real-world performance data, WAVE PRO helps engineers design and optimize treatment systems for drinking water, industrial utility water, wastewater reuse, and seawater desalination. The online tool captures interactions between technologies, allowing users to develop more realistic projections, identify opportunities for system optimization, and design more efficient and reliable water treatment solutions.
