Juntech, a specialized energy and environmental engineering company, will participate in 'Smart Energy Plus (SEP) 2026,' held from the 28th to the 30th at COEX in Seoul Samsung-dong, showcasing eco-friendly wastewater treatment technology that efficiently treats industrial wastewater while reducing energy consumption.
At this exhibition, Juntech plans to introduce its MVR (Mechanical Vapor Recompression) evaporative concentrator, Heat Pump evaporative concentrator, Hot Water & Steam evaporative concentrator, BIO-BED high-efficiency anaerobic wastewater treatment technology, and SOD sulfur oxidation denitrification process.
Juntech is a specialized energy and environmental engineering company established in 1998. The company has signed technical agreements with overseas firms in France, the Netherlands, Spain, and other countries, conducted domestication research, and developed energy-saving wastewater and waste treatment technologies. Its application fields include various manufacturing industries that generate wastewater, such as automotive, semiconductors, chemicals, food, and aerospace. Juntech provides solutions for the entire wastewater treatment process, from EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) to consulting, rather than simply supplying equipment.
The main product at this exhibition is the MVR evaporative concentrator. An evaporative concentrator is a device that applies heat to wastewater to evaporate moisture and concentrate pollutants. This product uses energy only for initial startup; thereafter, it compresses the steam generated during operation and utilizes it as a heat source. As a result, its energy efficiency has been improved by approximately 20 times compared to conventional steam-based evaporative concentrators. The product is available in models based on processing capacity, allowing the processing volume to be determined according to site conditions and user needs.
The Heat Pump evaporative concentrator utilizes thermal energy generated during the compression and expansion of refrigerant. It enables low-temperature treatment at 35–40 degrees Celsius under vacuum conditions, minimizing property changes in heat-sensitive substances. In particular, the two-stage heat pump method is designed to reduce power consumption by approximately 40% compared to the single-stage method by reusing thermal energy generated during the primary evaporation process for secondary evaporation. The Hot Water & Steam evaporative concentrator utilizes waste heat generated at industrial sites or existing hot water and steam. It allows wastewater concentration while reducing the burden of securing a separate heat source, making it suitable for improving energy utilization in industrial settings.
Juntech will also showcase 'BIO-BED,' a high-efficiency anaerobic wastewater treatment technology. This technology treats high-concentration organic wastewater using Misaeng-mul without oxygen supply. A key advantage is that the biogas generated during the wastewater treatment process can be utilized as an energy source, enabling simultaneous realization of wastewater treatment and energy recovery.
The SOD (Sulfur Oxidation Denitrification) sulfur oxidation denitrification process is also a major exhibition technology. This technology removes nitrogen from wastewater using sulfur-oxidizing Misaeng-mul, reducing the need for external organic carbon sources required in conventional denitrification processes. Juntech has obtained new environmental technology certification for this technology and presents it as a solution to enhance the efficiency and economic viability of nitrogen removal from industrial wastewater.
A Juntech official explained, "Currently, most wastewater generated in manufacturing plants is outsourced for treatment," adding, "Applying Juntech's technology can reduce outsourcing volumes or enable self-treatment."
Meanwhile, this event, co-hosted by MoneyToday and COEX and organized by the National Assembly Hydrogen Economy Forum, will be held from the 28th to the 30th at Hall B of COEX in Seoul Samsung-dong. The themes are 'Energy Daejeon-hwan in the AI (Artificial Intelligence) Era' and 'Energy Security Amid Rapidly Changing International Conditions.'
