Key Terms

silicon carbide, microfiltration, ultrafiltration

3 terms

silicon carbide technical

"proprietary silicon carbide membrane technology"

Silicon carbide is a hard, durable material made from silicon and carbon, often used in industrial applications like cutting tools and electronics. Its ability to withstand high temperatures and conduct electricity efficiently makes it valuable in manufacturing advanced electronic devices. For investors, companies working with silicon carbide are seen as key players in the growing market for high-performance electronics and energy-efficient technologies.

microfiltration technical

"filters for both microfiltration and ultrafiltration applications"

A pressure-driven membrane filtration process that separates suspended solids, particulates and most microorganisms from a liquid by passing it through a porous membrane with pore sizes typically in the ~0.1–10 micrometer range (commercial applications commonly use 0.1–0.45 µm). It is used for clarification and particulate removal in pharmaceutical, biotech and industrial liquids; because its pores are relatively large compared with ultrafiltration or nanofiltration, microfiltration does not remove dissolved salts, small molecules or most viruses and therefore is not a substitute for sterilizing or molecular filtration. Common operating modes are dead-end (batch) and crossflow (continuous), both relying on a pressure differential to drive liquid through the membrane while particles are retained and periodically flushed or backwashed.

ultrafiltration technical

"filters for both microfiltration and ultrafiltration applications"

Ultrafiltration is a process that separates small particles and liquids from larger molecules or substances using a filter with tiny pores. It is often used in water treatment and medical applications to remove impurities or excess fluids. For investors, understanding ultrafiltration is important because innovations or changes in this technology can impact industries focused on clean water, healthcare, and filtration products.

Helsinki hotel project expands the reach of LiqTech’s ceramic membrane filtration technology

BALLERUP, Denmark, Oct. 06, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LiqTech International, Inc. (Nasdaq: LIQT) ("LiqTech"), a clean technology company that manufactures and markets highly specialized filtration technologies, today announced its first commercial Aquatics order in Finland for the swimming pool at Original Sokos Hotel Presidentti in Helsinki. Secured through the Company’s Pool4You partnership, this order extends LiqTech’s commercial pool presence into a new market and advances its strategy of expanding adoption of its proprietary silicon carbide membrane technology.

LiqTech’s QlariFlow™ Aquatics platform combines silicon carbide ceramic membranes with a compact, modular system design to address the water quality and operating requirements of commercial pools. The technology is designed to deliver consistent filtration while helping operators reduce water, energy and chemical consumption compared with conventional filtration approaches. Its space-efficient configuration also supports installation in facilities where plant room space is limited, making it suitable for both new pool projects and upgrades to existing facilities.

These capabilities are central to LiqTech’s Aquatics growth strategy. By bringing its membrane technology and filtration systems to more commercial pool applications, the Company aims to meet demand for reliable water treatment and more efficient facility operation. The Helsinki project, which specifies a 2 × 2 membrane configuration plus AutoCIP, will bring LiqTech’s filtration technology to a commercial pool in Finland and serve as an example for other pool operators considering similar upgrades.

“This first order in Finland reflects our progress in bringing LiqTech’s ceramic membrane technology to more commercial pool markets,” said Fei Chen, CEO of LiqTech. “Our value starts with the technology and the system we deliver. We combine precise filtration with a compact design to help pool operators maintain water quality while using resources more efficiently. The Original Sokos Hotel Presidentti project is another step in expanding the reach of these capabilities, with Pool4You providing the local expertise and customer access to support our growth in Finland.”

The order follows the September 1, 2026 expansion of LiqTech’s Pool4You partnership. With more than four decades of pool water treatment experience, Pool4You provides established local relationships and project support that complement LiqTech’s technology. Its work encompasses over 80% of Finnish public swimming pool water treatment systems.
