…very good for networking opportunities.

“I have attended the two previous Blue Tech Forums. They have been very good for networking opportunities. These meetings have also made it easy to meet a significant number of start-up companies active in the water and wastewater markets. The short presentation format used by these companies give one a quick overview and hence a relatively large number can be accommodated. One can easily follow up with those of interest during this one day conference. This one day event has been very productive.”

…on my top priority list.

BlueTech — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 11:09:20 +0000

“…the BlueTech Forum set’s the topics in todays water technology arena clear. I appreciate a super relevant conference which bridges academia, VC and startup community challenges and issues together with larger coporations in the water treatment space. A one day conference keeps it short and sweet – this is one of the many water conference which is on my top priority list.”

Atlantis Technologies

BlueTech — Mon, 20 Feb 2012 15:03:03 +0000

The core competency of Atlantis Technologies is efficient deionization of challenging aqueous streams via the radial deionizing system (RDITM). The patented RDITM can deionize low solubility species and high total dissolved solids streams without fouling and with 75% less energy than state of the art brine concentrators. System can handle low solubility species such as calcium and barium sulfate, high tds streams such as produced/fracture water and RO reject, and high tds acid from mine drainage. System is scalable to process tds above 100,000 ppm and flow rates up to 1,000 gpm. For some streams, the concentrated reject is the desired product. We are able to adjust the concentration of this stream to be 10–20 times greater than the incoming, facilitating the mining of solutions for desirable contents such as sodium sulfate, rare earth metals, and sulfuric acid.
