GUELPH, ON, July 31,
2024 /CNW/ - Waterloo Biofilter Systems Inc., a key
innovator in onsite wastewater treatment, announces the acquisition
of RH2O Inc. - a specialist in advanced moving bed biofilm reactor
technology (MBBR) – subject to customary closing conditions. This
investment amplifies Waterloo Biofilter's overall tech capacity and
market position as a trusted provider of wastewater treatment
solutions. Waterloo Biofilter, already one of the country's
largest maintenance providers, will service existing RH2O customers
moving forward.
Waterloo Biofilter leads the onsite wastewater industry through
its proprietary trickle filter technology, which delivers optimal
levels of treatment efficiency and service reliability. By
incorporating RH2O's MBBR product line into its offering, Waterloo
Biofilter addresses a wider range of wastewater treatment needs,
from low concentration influent and small flows to high
concentration and high-flow requirements.
RH2O's technology is proven in the treatment of high-strength
wastewater, in particular the removal of biochemical oxygen demand
(BOD) and total suspended solids (TSS). For customers, this new
technological union will mean more efficacious nutrient removal,
including nitrogen and phosphorus, with a minimal environmental
footprint.
"This acquisition adds depth and substance to our total
offering, while augmenting our objective to lead the North American
wastewater treatment solutions market," said Dan Madon,
President and CEO of Waterloo Biofilter. "We're thrilled to
integrate RH2O's remarkable technology, and we welcome their
talented team to our Waterloo operation."
"A major challenge faced by the onsite wastewater industry is
treating high-strength wastewater with the smallest possible
eco-footprint, while remaining economical in both upfront capital
costs and ongoing maintenance. The RH2O acquisition provides
Waterloo Biofilter with new tools that enable our customers do just
that – whether with small systems or large, complex operations,"
added Mr. Madon.
