CES originally developed packaged plant designs to provide safe economical drinking water to people living in third-world and rural conditions. To accomplish this, these plants direct water through a series of process modules to remove pollutants, destroy all bacteria, viruses, parasites and cysts, fungi, radio-nuclides, bio-toxins, and chemical toxicants. While based on well known technologies, each module has been greatly advanced to maximize its effectiveness, lower its operating costs, simplify maintenance, and ensure its reliability. CES plants have a remarkably small footprint, with the flow of standard mobile designs from 2,880 to over 1,000,000 gallons per day. A Model RF-35 is only 10ft x 6ft x 8ft (LWH) yet can purify 50,000 gallons of polluted water per day.

This report is a technical summary of our current equipment capability and engineering expertise concerning water treatment technology which can be used to counter a terrorist attack on any municipal drinking water system. It also illustrates how we can literally turn raw municipal sewage water into safe high quality drinking water for a fraction of one cent per gallon.

CES water treatment systems are designed to operate under worst case conditions to remove chemical and bio-agents from water at high rates of speed and low cost without fouling. Our standard designs don't employ reverse osmosis (RO), because RO is easily fouled by metal hydroxides, algae and bacteria slime. If salt needs to be removed we do offer the option of adding electro-dialysis or RO after our standard modules have removed the pollutants which would normally foul RO.

All CES water treatment systems are delivered as a premanufactured and tested set of modules. This design allows us great flexibility and speed in engineering the proper system for each situation. For example; a set of large modules can be trucked to the site of a water plant being upgraded and installed temporarily to take on the entire flow of the old plant while the old facility is being upgraded. In an emergency situation two RF-700m systems could provide 2,016,000 GPD of safe drinking water from any non-salty source water even if it is contaminated with mud, oil, fuel, dysentery, E Coli, feces, urine, parasites and dead animals. A semi-tractor could transport all units to any site with roads after being flown across the world. RF-700m units could also be used to flush toxins from city water lines during a terrorist attack. The concept of ultra-compact modular sets allows us to put an entire city drinking water or sewage treatment system together in months instead of years. By simply changing the first two process modules in a standard water treatment train we can completely change the functionality of each system.

As per your letter request this document summarizes "CES Disinfection" capability and our ability to economically remove or destroy entire categories of pathogens, toxins and pollutants. We have also developed a practical means of cleaning hundreds of miles of underground drinking water pipe following a terrorist attack.
