Salt Lake City, UT. December 1st, 2010 The Trilogy System was created to alleviate the "The successful deployment of this solution is the culmination of a unique partnership between Utah State University's Space Dynamics and Energy Dynamics Labs and Purestream. Purestream has been able to incorporate this cutting-edge technology in our solutions to effectively and reliably treat and purify wastewater from the oil and gas industry," said Neil Richardson, CEO, Purestream Technology. The Trilogy System successfully scrubs air emissions, cleans and evaporates waste water and also provides remote water, oil and condensate data-tracking technology. Placed at the well site, one standard Trilogy unit can process up to 63,000 gallons per day, effectively removing harmful contaminants from waste water and rendering it cleaner than drinking water. A key feature of the system is its adaptive capability. It can be engineered and deployed to address specific issues facing any region or producer. West Virginia based PDC Mountaineer, LLC was the first producer in Marcellus Shale to adopt the technology. Purestream installed key components of The Trilogy System at PDC’s operation in Taylor County, West Virginia. |
environmental impact of hydraulic fracturing by evaporating produced and flowback water at the well site. Millions of gallons of water are typically used in the hydraulic fracturing process, a substantial amount of which returns to the surface as waste water which then must be transported to off-site disposal facilities. Decreasing the volume of water requiring disposal greatly reduces the cost of transportation and disposal as well as associated environmental impact -- mainly from trucking.
