Chemical-free water treatment for the oil and gas industry is now available through AquaMost‘s SX PECO Reactor, the company announced today.

“The SX reactor system allows operators to both lower cost and increase performance while maximizing operator safety through reducing chemical use,” CEO Todd Asmuth said in a statement. “We are consistently outperforming chemical-based treatment trains, and operators have stated our system is easier to use in the field and takes less of their time.”

In addition to chemical-free killing of multiple bacteria types, the SX PECO Reactor has a modular design that is scalable to meet industry requirements.

According to a release, the reactor was deployed in Texas, Colorado and Utah in the spring, with more to be installed this fall at disposal wells and fixed plant recycling facilities.
