Reduce waste volumes by up to 90% without investment
On-site evaporation. Pay per treated cubic meter, zero capital investment. Helios treats industrial wastewater directly on-site at your facility. Through evaporation, water is separated from contaminants, significantly reducing the amount of waste that needs to be transported and disposed of. No investment required. Pay per treated cubic meter.
50,000+ m³ treated annually
across Nordic industries
A complete service for industrial wastewater.
Installation
We deliver and install a modular system directly at your facility. Helios is responsible for design, installation and commissioning.
In operation within four weeks
Operation & monitoring
Helios monitors and operates the facility with ongoing service, maintenance and concentrate management.
You only pay for treated volume
Results
By handling waste on-site, the need for transport and external destruction is reduced, while water can be returned to a circular cycle.
Lower costs and lower CO₂ emissions
Results from industrial installations
Elcowire
Steel & Foundries
Challenge
Process water from Elcowire's emulsions was previously transported to external incineration at high costs and significant environmental impact. Efficient management was needed to reduce fresh water consumption.
Solution
A local system that treats up to 1,000 m³ of process water per year from two production streams. Using low-temperature evaporation, water is separated from contaminants. After treatment, up to 950 m³ of water is returned to production with remaining isopropanol that reduces the need for new chemicals.
Results
- 1,000 m³ process water treated per year
- ≤95% waste volume reduction
- 3 m³/day treatment capacity
- ≤950 m³ water returned to production
- 2025 production start
The Vision of Helios Innovation
Today's handling of liquid waste means that millions of tons of waste are transported away by truck, despite the fact that on average it consists of 98% water. We at Helios have developed a technology that makes it possible to purify the water directly at the industry and in this way reduce both waste amounts and CO₂ emissions.

See Solutions for PFAS treatmentLow-temperature evaporation. Built for industrial waste.
Helios uses low-temperature evaporation to separate water from contaminants directly at the customer's site. By significantly reducing the amount of liquid that needs to be transported, both costs and climate impact can be reduced. The systems are container-based plug-and-play units, automated and developed for continuous operation in industrial environments.
Relieves a strained industry
Liquid industrial waste is often transported long distances for external incineration despite consisting largely of water. This means high transport volumes, energy-intensive destruction, and increasing CO₂ emissions.
