Segment Overview

Treatment, recycling, purification and recovery systems or services for produced water streams.

Treatment changes the water stream to meet a specific next use or handling requirement. Processes can remove solids, oil, dissolved constituents or other contaminants, depending on the starting water and the goal.

Recovery also includes technologies that separate valuable materials from a brine. Treatment does not itself make a water suitable for every reuse or discharge pathway.
