BALLERUP, Denmark, June 23, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LiqTech International, Inc. (NASDAQ:LIQT), a clean technology company specializing in advanced filtration technologies, today announced that it has secured a commercial order for four of its marine water treatment systems for commercial vessels utilizing Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) engine technology in China. The first system is scheduled for delivery in Q4 2026. The order highlights the continued commercial adoption of LiqTech's marine water treatment solutions and further strengthens the Company's position in the market for advanced vessel emissions and water treatment technologies.

The EGR order follows multiple commercial orders and completed deliveries secured over the past six months by LiqTech’s joint venture in China for vessels that utilize iCER engine technology.

The newly awarded EGR order expands LiqTech’s presence in the marine water treatment market and reinforces the commercial opportunity for the Company’s silicon carbide membrane-based filtration solutions in next-generation commercial vessels. The order also validates the applicability of LiqTech’s membrane-based filtration technology across multiple next-generation marine engine platforms.

Building on experience gained from more than 170 marine scrubber installations worldwide, LiqTech has continued to develop and optimize its ultrafiltration water treatment solutions for future commercial vessels equipped with iCER or EGR engine technologies.

"We are proud to announce this commercial order for LiqTech’s marine water treatment business," said Fei Chen, CEO and President of LiqTech. "Commercial vessels utilizing cleaner fuel and emissions-reduction technologies represent an attractive growth opportunity for LiqTech. With commercial orders now secured for both iCER- and EGR-based vessel applications, we believe our technology is increasingly being recognized as a preferred water treatment solution for next-generation marine vessels."

This order further advances LiqTech’s strategy to expand its marine water treatment business beyond scrubber applications and into next-generation dual-fuel and emissions-reduction vessel technologies.
