The First Pennsylvania DEP Approved FracPure™ Facility is Now Open to Treat Frac Water for the Natural Gas Industry
HARRISBURG, Pa., Jan. 13, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated Water Technologies, Inc. has opened its first DEP approved FracPure™ Treatment and Recycling Facility in North Fayette Township, southwest Pennsylvania.
The facility currently provides phase one of the FracPure™ treatment process, using chemical treatment and filtration to recycle 250,000 gallons per day providing 100% re-use of flowback. No water will be discharged into rivers and streams in the process, helping the natural gas industry ease statewide environmental water concerns.
To schedule frac water treatment today: Call 877-372-2420 or go to www.FracPure.com and fill out a Customer Proposal form.
FracPure™ phase one treatment will be provided during construction of the first full scale Centralized FracPure™ Brine Treatment plant scheduled for completion in early 2012.
The full scale FracPure™ Brine Treatment Plant will remediate flow back brine into cleaned water exceeding all EPA and State drinking water standards of 500 parts per million of total dissolved solids, and Pennsylvania's Chapter 95 wastewater requirements, which is safe to return to the water table and into rivers and streams. The only other byproducts are 99.7% pure salts for water softening and liquid salt for erosion control and de-icing of roads.
FracPure™ has been proven effective for the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection. John T. Hines, Deputy Secretary, Office of Water Management for the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection states, "This is the first frac wastewater treatment system that has been successfully demonstrated for the treatment of Marcellus Shale frac wastewater."
FracPure™ is the most cost effective water management solution because it reduces water supply costs by creating new sources, reduces trucking costs with on-site treatment and recycling, and reduces plant operation costs by creating commercially sold salt products.
Integrated Water Technologies is currently engineering and permitting multiple Centralized Treatment Plants and FracPure™ Mobile On-site Treatment Units to provide 100% frac water recycling, production brine disposal, pit water filtration and disposal and source water supply throughout the Marcellus Shale to meet growing drilling and production demands.
