Lifequest Subsidiary Biopipe Global And Hydros Agritech, Inc. Announce Joint Venture To Market Biopipe's Onsite 100% Sludge Free Biological Sewage Wastewater Treatment System In North America

Ridgefield Park, NJ (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - via NEWMEDIAWIRE ‒ LIFEQUEST WORLD CORP (LQWC ) subsidiary Biopipe Global, which developed the world’s only highly scalable onsite sludge and chemical free sewage wastewater treatment technology, and Hydros Agritech, Inc. (Hydros), located in California, have signed a definitive agreement to create a joint venture that will market Biopipe in North America, Caribbean, and US territories.

Patrick McLafferty, CEO of Hydros, said, “Our joint venture will market and install the Biopipe system in the U.S., British Columbia, and certain Caribbean countries and US territories. We have already begun the process of installing and commissioning the first plant at a campground in Napa Valley. This plant will serve as a reference site and give impetus to active marketing in Northern California first before going nationwide. The Biopipe system offers unique opportunities for wineries (640 in California) and food processors to eliminate the use of septic systems and evaporation ponds for high strength nutrient wastewater. The system is cost-effective, compact and will allow reuse of agricultural process water, reduce groundwater nutrient pollution, and air emissions from pond-based systems currently in use. In certain applications, it will assist in returning agricultural lands to productive use.”

Enes Kutluca, CEO of Biopipe, commented, “We are delighted to announce this joint venture with Hydros, a company that has extensive experience with wastewater treatment and a significant presence in California. We are confident that we will meet the strict discharge standards of California Water Boards, the recognized leader in regional water quality control. A successful outcome with one of the strictest water resource control boards in the U.S. will be instrumental as we seek to expand into other States. We have been working remotely with the Hydros team to install and commission the first plant. Biopipe has the potential to disrupt the septic tank market in the U.S. and we are looking forward to working on this and other projects with the Hydros team.”
