254 255 ly.In addition,there is the Electrochemical Oxidation (EO) unit for highlyconcentratedwastewater or for the removal of dissolved organics; theOxidant De- composition (OD) unit to reduce any residual oxidant content; the Bead Filter (BF) unit to remove all traces of residual turbidity; and several separators for the removal of large suspended solids,free oil,and/or residual organics. So far,MAGS systems have been deployedmainly in large and/or remote habitats–ships at sea,mili- tarybases,research camps,etc.; andWETTsystems have onlybeen experimentedwith in a fewresiden- tial settings,and onboard vessels.But onceMAGS systems are scaled down to fit in residential units, andWETTsystems can be scaled up for different applications,such as ships or apartment buildings, Korneybelieves that Terragon’smacro vision can be realized.“When you combine the two technologies together,that’s theTRUHabitat,”he declares.“When you’ve employedMAGS andWETTsystems togeth- er,there’s a lot of synergybetween the two.MAGS generates a bit of water in the process that can go toWETT,andWETTgenerates a small amount of sludge from thesewastewaters that can be gas- ified byMAGS into energy.When you put these two applications intowhatever habitat,it trulycanmake it off-grid–being left with energyand cleanwater (non-potable) for reuse.” “There’s away tomove away from the grid and do it simplyand economically,”Korneyadds.“You don’t need to put this bag of garbage on your street to be picked up; you can actuallyuse it to harvest energy PREFERRED VENDORS n Dimartech www.dimartech.com n Fibrecast Inc. www.fibrecast.com TERRAGON ENVIRONMENTAL TECHNOLOGIES We wish to congratulate TERRAGON on their ongoing success and we are privileged to be part of their team.
