A Start-up from Shanghai That it is Poised to Solve Water’s Dirty Problem


Posted July 13, 2017 by LiuDeng

A start-up in Shanghai is pioneering a revolution in the wastewater treatment industry that could turn it on its head: a forward-osmosis technology to purify the water used in fracking

 
Clarion Water, an independently owned water and wastewater treatment specialist headquartered in Shanghai that is providing a comprehensive package of bespoke water management solutions reach that extends across China, is pleased to announce that backed by proprietary and private financing, 105 patents and a team of full-time employees that counts veterans of top world water companies among its ranks, Clarion Water has already landed two key partnerships to take its water purification technology to the front lines of the oil, gas and power industries.
Clarion Water is working with its partners to offer its forward-osmosis solution to shale oil and gas companies. And in China, where the start-up has signed a deal with another top Water Technology company, Clarion is in the final tries of delivering its first “zero liquid discharge” project to clean every gallon of contaminated water 100 percent of the way to potable drinking water.
“We’re providing a much more cost-effective, robust, simple approach,” said CEO Chen T. Chaobin.
Hydraulic fracturing, better known as fracking, is the process by which oil and gas companies inject a cocktail of water, sand and chemicals underground to release and extract gas trapped deep in shale formations. But it’s a process plagued with environmental concerns.
“Along with chemicals in the fracking fluids, heavy metals—arsenic, barium, cadmium—are the biggest problem with fracking,” said Mark J. Zhiping, Clarion Water’s Environmental Research Scientist. “These metals are dislodged from shale during the fracking process.”
