EBJ Business Achiever of the Week: Severn Trent Services

This week we salute Severn Trent Services (Colmar, PA) and its affiliates, winners of a 2010 Business Achievement Award in the technology merit category for the introduction of several new water/wastewater treatment technologies over the prior year. STS introduced two new, standard and pre-engineered inorganic removal systems, the SORB 33 ARS Series and the Omni-SORB IRS Series, for small water systems to treat arsenic, iron, and manganese contamination in potable water. Another introduction, the BALPURE ballast water treatment system from Severn Trent De Nora, is an electrochlorination-based ballast water treatment system suited for ships with high ballast-water flow rates such as tankers and bulk carriers. Severn Trent also introduced the Higgins Loop Continuous Ion Exchange (I-X) Technology for treating produced water from coal-bed methane production. Another new technology introduced in 2010 was the TETRApHix CO2 addition system for CO2 pH adjustment in drinking water treatment. Last but not least, the company introduced the Capital Controls Series WP70CV3, a wall-mounted gas feed system to control chemical feed in water or wastewater applications.For a full list of EBJ’s 2010 Business Achievement Award winners, please visit www.ebiresearch.com/2010_EBI_%20Awards.
