Seprotech Systems Incorporated — Formal Agreement With Compania Cervecerias Unidas S.A


OTTAWA, ONTARIO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--JUNE 13, 1995--SEPROTECH SYSTEMS INC.(Alberta Stock Exchange: SET) Seprotech Systems Incorporated announced today that the Company has reached formal agreement with Compania Cervecerias Unidas S.A. (CCU), the -largest producer of beer in Chile, for the supply of a water recycling and treatment system which combines Ultrafiltration and Reverse Osmosis technologies. The equipment, which will be designed, built, and commissioned by Seprotech, is to be installed at CCU's new Antofagasta facility. The contract value is approximately $500,000 U.S.


The technology offers oil companies a 25 to 50 percent savings over other treatments requiring costly well drilling, transport and pumping of oilfield wastewater.The permeate (lactose) from the UF is then pumped through the spiral-wound RO system. Nearly pure water passes through the membrane while a concentrate solution of 25% total solids, consisting primarily of lactose, is produced. This lactose is shipped to dairy farmers to be mixed with feed. Traditionally, RO systems were limited up to 18% total solids. SeparaTech has developed an exclusive design for its RO equipment that can produce concentrates up to 25% total solids."We made a decision late last year to seriously pursue markets throughout Latin America, and our efforts are beginning to show significant positive results." said Seprotech president Bill Touzel. This contract represents Seprotech's first large order south of Mexico, where the company has been active supplying similar equipment primarily to Coca-Cola bottlers. "We are committed to our business plan which targets industrial clients throughout the Americas", added Touzel.The facility is the first of its kind to use Infinity's Thin Film Electrocoagulation (TFEC(TM)) technology and reverse osmosis to remove contaminants such as sodium chloride, barium, strontium, iron and sulfates from the 100,000 gallons of saltwater produced daily by the Silo Field water-driven reservoirs. TFEC(TM) technology renders water that is suitable for surface discharge.The 900,000 lbs. of whey produced every day from its cheese processing operations had become a real burden for California Cooperative Creamery in Petaluma, Calif.80Fax: 514/848-9720 REPEATS: New York 212-575-8822 or 800-221-2462; Boston 617-330-5311 orSeprotech Systems Incorporated
