Salt Lake City, UT. August 3rd, 2010
Purestream Technology announced plans today to implement its cutting edge water treatment technology in the Marcellus Shale region. The announcement comes as part of a contract with West Virginia based PDC Mountaineer, LLC. Purestream will install part of its Trilogy system at PDC's operation in Taylor County, West Virginia.

The Purestream system will evaporate flow back water on site.Purestream's Trilogy solution offers both an economic incentive to producers, as well as greatly reducing the impact of oil and gas waste on the environment. A unique feature of the system is its modular size. Located onsite, a standard Trilogy unit can process up to 1500 barrels of water per day, effectively removing harmful waste from both the water and air emissions. In addition, Trilogy is very energy efficient. The system is able to recycle waste heat into reusable power.

Andrea Metil oversees Purestream's operations in the Eastern region of the United States, "Wastewater has become a problem in Marcellus. As a Pennsylvania native, I am beyond excited about the development and what it means for the state, but we need to be good stewards of the environment and address issues as they arise. Purestream's Trilogy system allows us to clean and evaporate toxic wastewater on site, reducing air pollution from trucking and preventing contaminated water from re-entering the eco system. It is a practical, affordable option for addressing one of the region's most significant environmental challenges".

Trilogy was developed in partnership with Utah State University's Energy and Space Dynamics Labs. "Utah State University is recognized throughout the world as a leader in thermal management technologies for space-based and terrestrial applications and we'll use some of those technologies to help provide oil and gas well owners with an affordable way to comply with current environmental regulations and potential future legislation that will affect their industry." said Dr. Douglas K. Lemon, President, Utah State University Research Foundation.
