Ober-Read & Philly Distributor deliver successful DAF Retrofit
Ovideo, FL (January 16, 2019) – Ober-Read & Associates and Nikuni America have partnered with the University of Idaho Department of Food Science to help solve a major worldwide pollution problem. In September 2018 the Everglades Foundation received a $1 Million investment from the State of Florida to solve worldwide phosphorus pollution through competition and innovation. As a part of the state’s partnership, the Florida Department of Environmental Protection (DEP) and the St. John’s River Water Management District (SJRWMD) will provide funding, the host site location and technical expertise to support the George Barley Water Prize. The partnership is for the final stage of the prize’s multi-year innovation competition, where the final four teams will travel to Lake Jesup from across the globe to see whose technologies can tackle phosphorus in the most cost-effective and scalable way. The Nikuni KTM microbubble pump is extremely effective in removing phosphorous salts from the treated water, which are then recovered for reuse.
