Aqwise will present its new and advanced solutions in the international WATEC exhibition
Herzliya, Israel, November 17 2009 – Aqwise, provider of advanced water and wastewater treatment solutions, is proud to present during the WATEC conference & exhibition a few of its recent developments in the field of water and wastewater treatment.
Aqwise was recently named a “Global Cleantech 100” company by Guardian News and Media and Cleantech Group™, LLC, as well as declared the winner of the “Deloitte Technology Fast 50” Israeli competition for 2009.
Based on Aqwise vision which combines unique and cost-effective solutions, excellent service and technological leadership, the company continues to invest considerable resources in developing tomorrow’s solutions. Among them are:
1. Advanced Biological Treatment Technology for Nitrate Contamination in Drinking Water.
Biological treatment for Nitrate contamination has clear advantages compared with existing technologies, mainly in saving capital and operation expenditures and in the lack of need to treat the brine stream created during the Nitrate removal process. Aqwise is currently conducting an advanced beta pilot test for this application in coopeartion with Mekorot, Israel's national water company.
2. The Aqwise Lagoon Polishing MBBR Solution is a compact, simple and robust lowmaintenance add-on system capable of maintaining extensive and consistent nitrification year-round, while requiring very little increase in operator intervention and control. As such, it is the perfect solution for upgrading extensive, lagoon-based system effluents for extensive ammonia removal.
3. The Aqwise Compact Sludge Dewatering Solution offers an economical, energy-saving alternative to existing dewatering systems for small to medium wastewater treatment plants. The innovative and field-proven dewatering solution utilizes a fully automated batch-treatment approach, thus requiring minimal human intervention.
