Dunphy have extensive experience in manufacturing, installing and maintaining ultra low NOx burners for sludge and wastewater treatment processes. Our burner designs mitigate the formation of thermal NOx through staged combustion supported by CFD optimised combustion heads and advanced touchscreen digital boiler/burner controls. When used with a correctly dimensioned boiler, NOx emissions are inherently low at 35mg. per kWh on gas and biogas. Burner components are designed and manufactured in materials which resist corrosion thus reducing expensive maintenance downtime. Design options also include sluice burners, retractable heads and web based software for the remote management of burners and boilers. Our factory laboratories have facilities to test the critical fuel characteristics of recovered sewerage biogases – including key calorific variations. This data then informs the engineering design of burners and boiler shells to optimise specific site combustion efficiency. Dunphy also specialise in the off-site manufacture of modular boiler houses for wastewater treatment sites. Our assembly hall adjacent to our main factory complex allows the construction of double tier containerised plant rooms which are delivered to site fully equipped and tested. The plant is ATEX compliant and we prepare all FDS reports, DSEAR analyses, SIL and risk assessments. Examples of our prefabricated energy centres can be seen on Thames Water, Severn Trent and Scottish Water sites – as well as municipal waste to energy locations. Dunphy customers benefit from direct contact with our engineers through the processes of project design, equipment manufacture and testing, installation and commissioning thus by-passing the alternative, lengthy third party contractual chain. Our customers include: Dŵr Cymru Welsh Water Uisce Éireann Northumbrian Water Severn Trent Scottish Water Southern Water Thames Water United Utilities Wessex Water Yorkshire Water

Liquid X is a water technology consultancy and commercialization platform focused on accelerating the deployment of next-generation filtration solutions, with a core emphasis on graphene-based water treatment. Founded to address the gap between breakthrough innovation and real-world implementation, Liquid X operates at the intersection of advanced material science, water infrastructure, and market deployment. While significant advances in water technologies exist globally, many remain confined to laboratories or early-stage ventures. Liquid X bridges this gap by identifying, validating, and commercializing high-impact solutions—particularly graphene-based filtration systems—within the GCC and wider MENA region. Our consultancy model is built around a full lifecycle approach: from technology scouting and technical evaluation to pilot design, validation, and scaled deployment. We work with asset owners, governments, and enterprises to translate emerging technologies into practical, site-ready solutions. This includes designing pilot programs with measurable performance metrics, enabling data-driven decision-making, and ensuring that innovations are proven under real operating conditions before scale-up. A key focus of Liquid X is the commercialization of graphene-based water filters. Graphene, a two-dimensional material with exceptional strength, permeability, and adsorption capacity, has the potential to fundamentally transform water treatment. Its nano-scale structure allows precise separation of contaminants while enabling faster water flow and lower energy consumption compared to conventional systems. Through strategic partnerships with innovators, researchers, and manufacturers, Liquid X is actively working to bring graphene filtration technologies from concept to market. These systems are being developed to address some of the most critical water challenges, including the removal of PFAS and emerging contaminants, heavy metals, dissolved solids, and industrial pollutants—while significantly reducing waste and energy intensity associated with traditional technologies such as reverse osmosis. Our role extends beyond technology development. Liquid X supports the full commercialization journey, including: Technical due diligence and performance validation Pilot implementation and third-party verification Integration with existing infrastructure Development of scalable deployment models Coordination with EPC contractors, facility managers, and regulators Ongoing monitoring, compliance, and optimization By operating as a vendor-agnostic platform, we ensure that solutions are selected based on performance, suitability, and long-term value—not vendor bias. The MENA region faces some of the world’s most acute water challenges, including scarcity, high desalination dependence, and rising energy costs. Liquid X is positioned to introduce more efficient, decentralized, and sustainable alternatives through advanced filtration technologies. Graphene-based systems, in particular, offer the potential for lightweight, modular, and energy-efficient treatment solutions that can be deployed at scale across residential, commercial, and industrial applications. At its core, Liquid X is not just a consultancy—it is an enabler of the next generation of water infrastructure. By combining deep regional expertise with global innovation networks, we are helping transform how water is treated, distributed, and consumed. Our mission is to accelerate the transition from legacy, resource-intensive systems to smarter, more sustainable water solutions—unlocking the full potential of graphene and other advanced materials to build a more water-secure future.

ODOUR CONTROL Our unique alliance with Europe’s largest manufacturers of specialist odour control products, CMI Europe Environment, is a major strength. We can offer all proven odour control technologies, from carbon filtration and catalytic dry scrubbers, through to bio filtration and chemical scrubbing. Solutions often require a combination of these techniques. All equipment on the odour control plinth is sourced from CMI EE’s state of the art facility and is pre-assembled for inspection prior to dispatch. This provides us with a unique level of quality control. Our specialist rope access division allows us to gain access to places where mechanical scaffold/access is going to be either very difficult or cost prohibitive. Our wide range of expertise design and project management experience, combined with close collaboration with the client is the reason we have an excellent reputation in the industry.
