Our Double-Acting Hydraulic Ram (DAHR) pumps can use a wide range of surface power sources to lift water from deep below ground and provide surface pressure for filtration and distribution. Our Non-Inertive-Feedback Thermofluidic Engine (NIFTE) uses low-grade heat to pump against heads of up to 10m.
ward winning technologies can play an important role in helping to solve some of the world’s greatest environmental and humanitarian problems and we hope that this website will evidence that. To that end, we have uploaded information on the accompanying pages which we update periodically. If you would like further information, please get in touch via our contact page.
