Your dehumidification systems are costing you more and more — and it's only going to get worse.
Since the installation of your dehumidification equipment, the climate has changed. Absolute humidity has increased in all regions of France. As a result, your systems are running longer, at higher load levels, leading to decreased performance.

A patented membrane technology — simple, robust, economical
NEODRY uses vapor-permeable polymer membranes, on either side of which a concentrated calcium chloride (CaCl₂) solution continuously circulates. Water vapor from the air passes through the membranes and is captured by the saline solution, which then dilutes. The outgoing air is precisely dehumidified to the desired set temperature.
The saline solution is then regenerated at a very low temperature (waste heat at 30–40 °C) — compared to 140 to 160 °C for a desiccant wheel — using outside air. This principle allows energy consumption to be reduced by a factor of 2 to 4.
1. Dehumidification module
The air to be treated flows tangentially along the membrane frames. Humidity is absorbed by the saline solution. The supplied air is then delivered at the required temperature and humidity levels.
2. Regeneration Module
The diluted saline solution returns to its optimal concentration in a second module. Outside air absorbs the water vapor from the solution, which has been heated to only 30–40 °C using waste heat.
3. Supervisory Module
Dynamic temperature and flow control. Modbus BMS connection. Integrated alarm detection and management. Ensures setpoints are maintained under all conditions.
Why does NEODRY provide up to 75% energy savings?
Regeneration temperature
30-40 °C
Thanks to the waste heat from the chiller or that present on site, regeneration is carried out at a very low energy cost.
Integrated air cooling
Yes, at no extra cost
Air can be blown at low temperatures, thus relieving the existing cooling systems for additional energy savings.
Low pressure drop
100-200 Pa per module
This optimizes fan sizing and further increases the energy value proposition
Applications & Sectors
Food and frozen products
Deep-freezing facilities, meat and fish processing, powder manufacturing, ice cream production. NEODRY maintains incoming air temperatures between -15°C and +40°C, without risk of freezing. Measured savings: -60% at the reference site (ice cream, 5,000 m³/h, since January 2024).
-60% energy consumption measured under real-world conditions
