SEAIR ANNOUNCES RESULTS FOR NEW SEAIR SEPTIC 20 PORTABLE WASTEWATER TREATMENT SYSTEM
Edmonton, Alberta, Nov 9, 2006. SEAIR Inc . (SDS: TSX Venture Exchange) SEAIR Inc. ("SEAIR") is pleased to announce, on behalf of its wholly-owned subsidiary Seair Septic Inc. ("Seair Septic"), the performance of the newly designed Seair Septic 20 portable wastewater treatment systems, as determined by recent laboratory analysis.
Testing was performed on a discharge sample extracted from a fully operational field unit leased to a drilling camp in northern Alberta. The analysis of discharge quality, performed by ALS Laboratory Group located in Edmonton, Alberta, yielded the following results:
Biochemical Oxygen Demand |
17 |
mg/L |
Fecal Coliforms |
<1* |
CFU/100ml |
Total Coliforms |
<1* |
CFU/100ml |
Total Suspended Solids |
5 |
mg/L |
* no counts were detected
Put into perspective, the acceptable levels for Total and Fecal Coliforms in the guidelines of the Canadian Drinking Water Quality Standards for 2006 are also <1 or nil. The Seair Septic results were produced from a 12-hour treatment of raw sewage.
Mr. Harold Kinasewich, President of SEAIR states, "We are delighted with the excellent performance of our system, and are confident that these results have the potential to benchmark Seair Septic technology in the industry. The analysis clearly indicates that the discharge not only falls within the governmental guidelines, but it far surpasses them. The ability of the Seair Septic 20 system allows for a smaller, environmentally friendly footprint that can be located in sites with limited space. Seair Septic is continuing expansion of its fleet of treatment plants, and this new unit is being received enthusiastically by its customers."
Dr Ansar Qureshi, SEAIR's Executive Scientific Advisor states, "This breakthrough to deliver such a high quality discharge wastewater in a short period of time has the capability to revolutionize the wastewater treatment industry. The ability of the Seair Septic system will have applications beyond the oil and gas remote camp sector, reaching out to municipalities and rural development sites. The discharge contains insignificant levels of both biological and chemical contaminants following treatment with this simple and economical system. Such remarkably low levels are normally achieved after complex, prolonged and expensive treatment processes."SEAIR is a developer of proprietary diffusion and sterilization technologies. These patent pending technologies allow for the efficient diffusion of gases into a liquid, thereby facilitating numerous applications in a wide variety of industries, including potable and waste water treatment, pulp and paper, aquaculture, agriculture/horticulture, sterilization, golf course irrigation and pond treatment, animal enhancement and oil and gas. SEAIR's primary focus is developing and selling equipment that diffuses gases such as oxygen, ozone or carbon dioxide into a liquid, resulting in a supersaturate solution. The major difference between SEAIR and other diffusion technologies is the ability to achieve extremely small gas bubble size, which in turn allows for the mass transfer of gas to fluid. The result is a stable condition where the gases remain in solution for extended periods of time, leading to increased productivity and lower operating costs.
