Muddy River is actively involved in
research, development and manufacturing of innovative water and wastewater
treatment methods and equipment.
Located in South-West British Columbia, Canada, Muddy River
Technologies Inc. designs and manufactures dissolved air flotation
equipment (Micro Air Separation System - MASS), oil/water separators, mixer/aerators and provides various
types of hydrocyclones, as well as multi-media and GAC
filters.
Water, one of mankind's most
precious commodities, covers approximately 70% of the Earth's surface.
97% of water is saltwater and 3% is freshwater of which 2% is locked
away in glaciers, icebergs and snow with the remaining 1% accessible
for human consumption.
In a 'Fortune' magazine article
titled "Water, Water, Everywhere" (May 15th, 2000) it
was stated that:
"...the water industry
is one of the world's greatest business opportunities. Supplying
water to people and companies is a US$400 billion a year industry.
That's 40% of the size of the oil sector and one third larger than
global pharmaceuticals.
What exactly is the water
industry? Unlike oil, water isn't mainly about finding new supplies.
But it is about infrastructure. The object is purifying the huge
quantities collected from wells, rivers and rain, and distributing
it, with total reliability, to absolutely everyone. That epic job
doesn't stop with drinking water. It also encompasses treating 'wastewater'
or sewage, an area that's just as big and complex."
