About Mönkemöller Water Technology
Mönkemöller Wassertechnik GmbH is a family-run company from Ostfildern near Stuttgart, active in water technology since 1898. The company develops, plans, constructs, and maintains individually customized water treatment systems for industry, commerce, and craftsmanship. The product portfolio includes demineralization plants using ion exchange, reverse osmosis systems, ultrapure water systems with UV disinfection, fine filtration, and electrodeionization (EDI), membrane degassing, permeate management, concentrate recovery, and full desalination plants, as well as medical ultrapure water systems for component cleaning using TOC-UV and sterile filters. Furthermore, the company offers cooling tower maintenance and cooling water treatment according to VDI 2047, as well as monitoring automation. In addition to new installations, Mönkemöller provides maintenance and service for plants from all manufacturers with more than 1,000 service calls per year, retrofitting and modernization, as well as monitoring and digitalization. Customers include companies from energy and power plant operations, chemical and pharmaceutical industries, food industry, healthcare, and laboratories. Reference projects include a hospital in Ludwigsburg, the sewage treatment plant of the Stuttgart district, and an industrial plant supplier in the Böblingen district.

Processes & Technology
Ion Exchange (Demineralization)
Removes calcium and magnesium from raw water and protects plants from limescale deposits.
Reverse Osmosis
Desalts water under pressure using semi-permeable membranes for diverse industrial applications.
Electrodeionization (EDI)
Complements reverse osmosis in ultrapure water systems to achieve extremely low conductivity.
UV Disinfection / TOC-UV
Ensures microbiological purity, especially in medical ultrapure water systems.
Membrane Degassing
Removes dissolved gases such as oxygen and carbon dioxide from the water.
Full Desalination
Regenerates with HCl and NaOH, removes dissolved salts for district heating networks and steam generation.
