Eco-Tec And PureTech Align To Solve Coal Bed Methane Produced Water Issues

Pickering, Ontario — Eco-Tec and PureTech have aligned to serve the needs of Coal Bed Methane producers through a superior water treatment system combined with over 18 years of industrial mining experience.

Coal Bed Methane (CBM) is one of the latest industries that will provide a vast resource for natural gas. One issue surrounding CBM is the environmental impact of the water produced through CBM well processes. The produced water currently contains high levels of sodium that can be potentially dangerous to the well's surrounding environment.

To address this issue, Eco-Tec has configured a system, the RecoPur® CBM Water Treatment System, to recover the sodium-filled water and purify it to extremely acceptable levels while converting the waste into marketable byproducts. PureTech provides the CBM industry experience along with local, hands-on engineering and aquatic biology expertise. Together, Eco-Tec and PureTech form a team that will ensure that CBM producers are able to increase production while exceeding environmental water standards, with no waste generated.
