LiqTech's Revolutionary PureFlow™ Units for the Oil & Gas Industry
LiqTech International, Inc., a frontrunner in innovative filtration technology based in Denmark, has recently secured its first major commercial order for the LiqTech PureFlow™ mobile filtration units. This landmark order comes from Razorback Direct, located in Houston, Texas, and signifies LiqTech's substantial entry into North America's growing energy sector.
The oil and gas industry often grapples with significant challenges in managing water quality, as it is influenced by various factors including the unpredictability of water sources and the harsh conditions often found in remote operational sites. This is where LiqTech's PureFlow™ technology steps in, purposefully designed to tackle these difficulties with reliability and efficiency.
Key Features of the LiqTech PureFlow™ Units
The PureFlow™ units are fully containerized and fully automated, meaning they do not require any daily manpower for operation. The units are monitored and can be controlled remotely, a crucial feature that enables operators to manage water treatment from afar, making them particularly suitable for remote sites. Their compact and mobile design ensures they can easily be deployed to challenging locations. Whether it's the frigid conditions of Alaska or the extreme heat of Texas, these units are constructed to endure a variety of climates.
One of the standout capabilities of the LiqTech PureFlow™ units is their efficiency in treating raw produced water. They can achieve an impressive oil concentration of 1 to 3 parts per million without needing any pre-treatment. This feature is especially beneficial for operations aiming to reuse water or desalinate it, as the treated output from these units acts as an optimal feed for desalination processes. The low requirement for manpower, combined with LiqTech’s industry-leading five-year membrane warranty, ultimately provides operators with reduced operational expenditures, enhancing the overall cost-effectiveness of these units.
The units ordered by Razorback Direct will be operational in the Northern American Region. This follows a successful pilot program earlier this year, during which the pilot unit's outstanding performance and reliability earned high praise from the client, particularly for its ability to tackle complex water streams while generating lower waste volumes compared to traditional technology like Dissolved Air Flotation systems.
Razorback Direct’s President and CEO, Ray Juman, expressed his enthusiasm about the collaboration, stating, “We are very excited to expand our partnership with LiqTech. Their innovative PureFlow™ technology has proven to deliver tremendous value to our clients, solving complex water challenges effectively. The pilot results exceeded expectations, demonstrating the system's efficiency and reliability.”
Fei Chen, CEO of LiqTech International, also commented on the significance of this order, calling it a key achievement in validating their solutions within the global energy market. “The PureFlow™ units are crafted to excel in the most demanding environments, and this order underscores the growing confidence in our capabilities to deliver tailored, cutting-edge solutions for our clientele,” Chen added.
Projected delivery for the units is set for the first quarter of 2025, signifying a significant next step for both LiqTech and Razorback Direct in their commitment to advancing water management solutions in the energy sector.
LiqTech utilizes advanced silicon carbide membrane technology, ensuring unmatched performance and reliability, making it an ideal choice for industries requiring efficient and durable filtration solutions.
