Research and development is the core of DELTA's culture. Our engineering team is always eager to develop new world-class products. Among the projects currently under development are:

Portable pumps.  As a compliment of our highly praised axial and mixed flow pump line, DELTA is currently developing its portable pump line. The new pumps will be Francis, axial, or mixed flow and will be driven by hydraulic motors or tractor PTO.  Details en this new lines of pumps will be posted soon.

Alternative energy turbines.  DELTA is currently conducting research on alternative sources of energy for various applications.  The scope of the research includes wind and hydro turbines.

•  Wind turbines.  The wind turbines under development have three major applications:  electricity generation in rural areas, water pumping, and aquaculture pond aeration and recirculation.
• Hydro turbines.  The hydro turbines under study are in the micro hydropower range (<2000 kW).  The turbine types beign developed are pelton, crossflow, francis, and axial flow.  The turbines are intended to provide clean and cost effective electrical power in rural areas.

Desalinization plants.  DELTA has developed a line of vapor-compression cycle desalinization plants with fresh water capacities ranging from 10 to 500 m³/day per unit.  The energy consumption ranges from 12 to 14 kWh/m3 of fresh water produced.  The vapor-compression process was chosen to utilize DELTA's long experience in the design and manufacture of centrifugal blowers and heat transfer equipment.
