RALEIGH, N.C., Dec. 10, 2003 (PRIMEZONE) -- HydroFlo, Inc. (OTCBB:HYRF) announced today that it has provided and operated equipment for the treatment of rendering plant condensate at a prominent pork production facility in North Carolina.
The HydroFlo equipment typically used for aeration of wastewater and for odor control in force mains is being used by this facility for yet another innovative application. The application is for the stripping of ammonia gas from a condensate stream generated during the rendering phase. The HydroFlo unit removed better than 99.5 percent of the ammonia within one minute of operation.
The removal of ammonia gas will allow the production facility to discharge its wastewater directly to the municipality without penalty. This adds to the list of products that HydroFlo is able to provide for its industrial and food processing clients. "Pretreatment of industrial and municipal wastewater is the core technology that HydroFlo is able to provide and this new application is expected to be used by a wider variety of clients as a new alternative for high efficiency treatment of wastewater.
HydroFlo provides equipment used for the pre-treatment of wastewater. Using the patented and proprietary pre-treatment system, customers can begin the treatment process at their points of collection, or points of generation to reduce treatment or sewer use costs. The company also provides a full range of related services to companies and municipalities to treat their wastewater at the treatment plant by the use of the energy efficient aeration systems in treatment lagoons.
"This new application affirms the versatility of our product in the treatment of wastewater and continues to add to the company's overall potential. We are delighted with the results and look forward to providing clients with needed water treatment solutions," said Dennis Mast, CEO of HydroFlo.
