Aquatech to Provide the Latest on its MoSuite(TM) Wastewater Treatment System at Shale Gas Insight(TM) 2011 Conference in Philadelphia


Success of Mobile MoVap® Distillation System to be Discussed

Canonsburg, PA, August 29, 2011 - Aquatech, a world leader in the development of wastewater recycling, reuse and treatment, announced its participation in the upcoming Shale Gas Insight(TM) 2011, the first conference of its kind to be sponsored by the Marcellus Shale Coalition in Philadelphia. The event will be held September 7-8 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Aquatech's exhibit booth will be #409, where company representatives will be on hand to share the latest information on the successful operation of Aquatech's environmentally compliant and proven MoSuite(TM) portfolio of wastewater treatment solutions for shale gas operators.

The full range of MoSuite(TM) system includes MoTreat®, a mobile pre-treatment system for removal of total suspended solids (TSS); MoVap®, a mobile industrial distillation system for removal of total dissolved solids (TDS); a modular industrial distillation system for removal of TDS; and a modular crystallizer for producing beneficially reusable salt products, thus reducing the disposal of salts to the underground disposal wells. The salt products are suitable for reuse commercially, including future drilling and other oil and gas operations. Aquatech's mobile and modular wastewater treatment technologies can be used separately or combined to ensure that treated waters reach ultra-clean levels so that they can be reused or returned to the environment in compliance with National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permits.

"We are very excited to be a part of Shale Gas Insight 2011(TM)," said Chuck Kozora, Regional Business Development Manager at Aquatech. "The timing for Aquatech couldn't be better because we will be able to share the latest news on the performance and success of our mobile wastewater treatment solutions for shale gas in the field."

Aquatech's mobile solutions enable the recycling and reuse of flowback waters at the wellhead, satellite or central facility reducing the levels of fresh water required for the hydraulic fracturing process used in shale gas exploration. By reducing the overall volume of freshwater on the well pad, Aquatech helps reduce the amount of transportation required for water delivery and removal.

Depending on client need, MoTreat® and MoVap® can be configured in conjunction with other mobile, modular and central treatment options to provide a complete solution to handle drilling waste waters, flowback and production brines. Because MoSuite(TM) solutions are mobile, they can be transported to virtually any well pad, satellite facility or a central facility. In addition, the company provides easy access to turnkey services that include full maintenance, trouble-shooting and a Shale Gas Team accessible 24/7/365. Globally, the company treats over 600,000 barrels of produced water per day.
