H₂O Innovation Inc. (“H₂O Innovation” or the “Corporation”) is pleased to announce that its Water Technologies & Services (WTS) business line has recently been awarded 10 new water treatment projects. These new contracts, with a total value of $12.0 M, bring the WTS backlog to $46.0 M. The new projects are coming from four municipal customers and six industrials. This combination, which weighed more towards industrial projects, is in line with the Corporation’s Three-Year Strategic Plan.

One project involves water reuse in the aquaculture sector. H₂O Innovation has been selected to complete the design, manufacturing and start-up of this reuse system that includes reverse osmosis (RO), granular activated carbon (GAC) and UV disinfection technologies. Water is the heart of the aquaculture facility which recirculates 30 MGD (113 550 m³/day) of water for the aquatic species being cultivated. Due to constraints on the local supply, the treatment system is necessary to expand the amount of water available for this facility. The treatment approach is the first of its kind within the aquaculture industry. This type of project showcases the strategic synergies at play between the business pillars of the Corporation, as H₂O Innovation will not only supply the capital equipment for this facility, but it will also be in a good position to provide it with technical services, specialty chemicals, and consumables in the future. The existing system is also operated by our operation and maintenance (O&M) team located in the state of New York.
