SINGAPORE, June 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- MediSun Energy, a Singapore-based leader in integrated brine management, announced a strategic joint venture with Yanrun Membrane Technology Co., Ltd., a premier national-level high-tech electro-membrane pioneer, at the Singapore International Water Week (SIWW) 2026.

Through this strategic partnership, MediSun Energy and Yanrun will establish a new Singapore-based corporate entity, led by MediSun Energy, to serve as the exclusive global launchpad for their combined solutions outside of mainland China.

This joint venture will drive the international development, manufacturing, and distribution of a highly specialized suite of advanced systems, including Electrodialysis Bipolar Membrane (EDBM), Electrodialysis Metathesis (EDM), Electrodialysis (ED) stack systems, and Pressurised Forward Osmosis (PFO) systems, alongside integrated Zero Liquid Discharge (ZLD) solutions.

By combining MediSun Energy's extensive international network and proprietary expertise in energy-efficient brine management with Yanrun's deep R&D legacy in advanced electro-driven and bipolar membranes, the two companies will collaborate to address critical water scarcity and tightening industrial environmental regulations globally, with a specific focus on the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region and Southeast Asia.

Dusun Kim, CEO & Co-Founder of MediSun Planet Pte Ltd, stated: "The global industrial market is facing an inflection point where conventional wastewater disposal is no longer sustainable, environmentally compliant, or economically viable. By combining MediSun Energy's international market reach and deep-tech brine management capabilities with Yanrun's world-class, multi-patent electro-membrane manufacturing engine, this partnership will bridge a critical industry gap. We are excited to offer heavy industry and desalination sectors across Southeast Asia and the GCC region access to next-generation, circular ZLD solutions that turn environmental liabilities into valuable resource streams."

Huang Quansen, Chairman of Yanrun, added: "Yanrun has consistently spearheaded the development, industrial application, and industry standard-setting of advanced electro-driven membranes within China. Establishing this exclusive international commercial platform alongside MediSun Energy marks a pivotal milestone in our global expansion strategy. This partnership allows us to seamlessly match our manufacturing excellence and cutting-edge membrane technology with MediSun Energy's prominent international presence, bringing clean, green, and circular industrial water reuse technologies to the global stage."

The launch of this joint venture underscores Singapore's position as a premier global hydrohub and a leading center for green technological innovation. By anchoring this international initiative in Singapore, both companies are uniquely positioned to leverage the nation's world-class business ecosystem to accelerate global climate resilience, decarbonize heavy industry, and promote long-term water security on an international scale.

Das Österreichische Rote Kreuz warnt vor Beginn der Urlaubssaison vor niedrigen Blutreserven und ruft die Bevölkerung dringend zum Spenden auf. Blut könne nicht künstlich hergestellt werden, eine Konserve sei nur 42 Tage haltbar und werde in Österreich im Schnitt alle 90 Sekunden benötigt, heißt es aus der Organisation. Ziel ist es, die Versorgung der Spitäler mit dem lebenswichtigen Notfallmedikament auch in den Sommermonaten abzusichern.

Bundesrettungskommandant Gerry Foitik verweist darauf, dass der Bedarf an Blutkonserven keinen Urlaub kenne. Blut werde nicht nur für Operationen benötigt, sondern ebenso für Geburten, Krebstherapien und die Behandlung verschiedener Erkrankungen. Gerade vor dem Sommer sei es daher wichtig, einen Termin zur Blutspende zu vereinbaren, betont Foitik. Spendenzeiten und -orte sind auf der Plattform blut.at gelistet, über die auch Terminreservierungen möglich sind.

Am Sonntag, dem 14. Juni, fallen Vatertag und Weltblutspendetag zusammen – ein Datum, das das Rote Kreuz für eine groß angelegte Aktion in Wien nutzt. In der „Arena 21“ im Museumsquartier (Museumsplatz 1, 1070 Wien) können Interessierte zwischen 10 und 12 Uhr sowie von 13 bis 16 Uhr Blut spenden. „Mit einer Blutspende retten Sie Leben“, sagt Simon Gänsdorfer, Leiter der Blutspende für Wien, Niederösterreich und das Burgenland. Die Aktion ist auch als Familienevent angelegt und soll insbesondere jüngere Menschen für das Thema sensibilisieren.

Begleitet wird die Veranstaltung im Museumsquartier von DJ-Musik, Vitamin-Mocktails, Gewinnspielen und einer Kids Area. Das Rote Kreuz setzt damit bewusst auf ein niederschwelliges Angebot, um Hemmschwellen beim Blutspenden zu senken und zusätzliche Zielgruppen anzusprechen. Neben der Sonderaktion am Weltblutspendetag bleibt die Blutspendezentrale in Wien (Wiedner Hauptstraße 32, 1040 Wien) ganzjährig geöffnet; auch in allen anderen Bundesländern bestehen laufend Möglichkeiten zur Blutspende.
