CHARTWATER™ AND CALGON CARBON ANNOUNCE REFERRAL AGREEMENT
ChartWater’s
AdEdge Center of Excellence and Calgon Carbon signed an agreement to
partner in offering drinking water treatment systems to under-resourced,
rural communities.
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, June 10 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) --
ChartWater™ a division of Chart Industries, Inc. (“Chart”) (NYSE:
GTLS), and Calgon Carbon Corporation (“Calgon Carbon”), a wholly owned
subsidiary of Kuraray Co., Ltd. (TYO: 3405) (“Kuraray”), today formally
announced an agreement signed in 2021 to jointly offer drinking water
systems, using granular activated carbon, to under-resourced rural
areas.
The terms of the Agreement allow Calgon Carbon to refer
all communities in the United States requiring treatment of up to
approximately 175 gallons per minute to ChartWater’s AdEdge Water
Technologies (AdEdge ), who will source all related GAC from Calgon
Carbon. While both companies will continue to provide water treatment
solutions for all flow rates, the Agreement enables the Companies to
combine their capabilities for solutions that will cost-effectively
provide safe drinking water to communities.
According to the U.S.
EPA’s Safe Drinking Water Act, there are over 140,000 small drinking
water systems in the United States. Many of these systems face
challenges in meeting ever-changing and stringent regulations around
drinking water contamination, making it difficult to provide
consistently safe drinking water to customers. The new Agreement offers
these small systems access to AdEdge’s variety of equipment offerings as
well as Calgon Carbon’s premium product line, FILTRASORB® GAC.
“We
are excited to partner with Calgon Carbon to combine their decades of
GAC experience with our experience providing complete, packaged
treatment systems to municipalities around the United States,” said
Chris Milligan, President of ChartWater™. “ChartWater’s AdEdge Center of
Excellence provides solutions for municipal and industrial customers of
all sizes. This relationship with Calgon Carbon will specifically
strengthen our ability to serve smaller utilities with a world-class GAC
solution for the removal of PFAS, TOC, disinfection byproducts, and any
other contaminants that can be addressed with GAC.”
Since
creating the first activated carbon products from bituminous coal in the
1940s, Calgon Carbon has been a pioneer in developing high performing
granular activated carbon products for water purification.
“Calgon
Carbon has provided GAC to hundreds of water suppliers for over 40
years, and we are enthusiastic about this Agreement,” said Nora
Stockhausen, VP of the Drinking Water Solutions and Innovative Carbon
Technologies business unit. “This collaboration allows our FILTRASORB®
GAC to be more accessible to smaller utilities through AdEdge’s reach
in this market and we’re proud to work together to provide clean, safe
drinking water to more Americans.”
