Water-Stocks.com-Fast Growth for Water Treatment Technologies Due to World-wide Water Shortage
POINT ROBERTS, Wash.--(BUSINESS WIRE)----
Clorox, Hendrx, ITT, and Siemens Identify Opportunities in Point of Use Systems and Waste Water Treatment
www.Water-Stocks.com (WS), an investor and industry news portal for the water sector, provides an exclusive overview entitled "Fast Growth for Water Treatment Technologies". Rising water prices and water quality problems attract investors' attention to the water treatment technology sector. Perspectives into the efforts of companies that are capitalizing on the water market are revealed by Clorox, ITT, water purification company Hendrx, and Siemens. Industry experts, Neil D. Berlant, First Vice President and Managing Director for Water Group, The Seidler Companies and Steve Maxwell, Managing Director at TechKNOWLEDGEy Strategic Group, provide viewpoints on current and future opportunities in these developing markets.
With an increased public awareness of critical water issues Point-of-Use (POU) and Point-of-Entry (POE) systems are attracting market attention. As Robert De Costa CEO of Hendrx Corp. (OTCBB:HDRX) explains, "We at Hendrx believe strongly that POU systems will gain in significance providing pure drinking water for the future." POU and POE technology is being explored in a variety of forms. According to Clorox's (NYSE:CLX), Brita(R) systems "are point-of-use products that remove 98% of the lead from tap water."
As water becomes scarce and water resources become more valuable, there is an economic, as well as a social incentive to better manage and treat the waste water so that it can become a primary source of water. Bjorn von Euler, Director of Corporate Communications at ITT Industries Inc. (NYSE:ITT) believes, "Reusing is good for both municipal use and industrial use. This market definitely will be much bigger as water is getting scarcer." As described by Lisa Sorgini, Global Brand Manager for Siemens Water Technologies, a subsidiary of Siemens AG (NYSE:SI), "Wastewater recycling allows communities to solve water shortage problems."
Fast Growth for Water Treatment Technologies

January 2006
Water is a booming business. According to an English publication Global Water Intelligence, worldwide annual industry revenues are estimated at $420 billion, with the United States accounting for around $100 billion. This number is expected to grow as water becomes scarcer and markets begin to mature. Two of the fastest growing segments are: point of use/point of entry (POU/POE) systems and waste water treatment.
Neil Berlant stated, "I think the economics and pricing are going to make this an extraordinary market. It has been an excellent place to be in for a long period of time."

China says 300 million rural residents drink unsafe water:
300 million rural residents drink unsafe water, as worries mount over pollution
http://www.uswaternews.com/archives/arcglobal/6chinsays1.html
January 2006
U.S. Water News Online
SHANGHAI, China -- About 300 million people living in China's vast countryside drink unsafe water tainted by chemicals and other contaminants, the government said in its latest acknowledgment of mounting risks from widespread pollution.
The most common threat to water, after drought, is chemical pollutants and other harmful substances that contaminate drinking supplies for 190 million people, state media quoted E Jingping, a vice minister for water resources, as saying.
The report follows recent chemical spills in the northeast and south of the country that temporarily spoiled water supplies for millions of people and highlighted the severity of the pollution crisis.
The problems are not limited to the countryside. About 90 percent of China's cities have polluted groundwater, the official Xinhua News Agency reported, citing a recent nationwide survey.
In Shanghai, the country's biggest and wealthiest city, fetid, stinky canals bubble with pollution. The city's tap water, drawn partly from the heavily polluted Yangtze River, is yellowish and smelly, despite efforts to clean up local waterways.
Some 136 Chinese cities report severe water shortages, adding to the problem, Xinhua said.
"The top priority of our drought relief work is to ensure safe drinking water and safeguard people's health," Xinhua quoted E as telling a conference in the western city of Chengdu.
Heavily polluting paper and chemical plants have long been cited as key sources of degradation of most of China's waterways. In some areas, the problems have prompted riots by local residents outraged by chronic health problems and the destruction of their fields and fish farms.
Millions of other Chinese face risks from naturally occurring contaminants, such as excess fluorine, which affects water supplies for 63 million people, and arsenic, which taints water supplies for 2 million. Another 38 million have only brackish water to drink, the report said.
Earlier, authorities reported that toxins in the Bei River, in southern China's Guangdong province, had nearly returned to safe levels after a Dec. 15 spill of more than 1,000 tons of cadmium-laced water from a smelter in the city of Shaoguan.
Cities along the Bei temporarily stopped drawing water from the river and dams were closed to keep the spill away from the provincial capital, Guangzhou.
Residents in Russia's Far East have been warned against eating fish after a 110-mile-long slick from a chemical spill in northeastern China crossed the border earlier. That spill, from a Nov. 13 chemical plant explosion in the city of Jilin, forced Chinese cities along the Songhua River to shut off water for days.
SStock43, I beleive I sent the article on Saudi Arabia to Joe Doxey.
In my first of two conversation with Joe I learned he was part of a diverse team of companies invited to Saudi Arabia about 4 years ago. I know another company (and their management) from Florida that was invited.
He must have these contacts.
I detect a fear in him that his desigm will be stolen--the patent should bring some degree of safety.
If he can take benzene out of water he has an immediate market in Russia. China dumped benezene in the water and it is NOW floating up the river to Russia. See WSJ Friday dec 16--front cover.

Saudi Arabia is in the midst of implementing a $5 million project for water reuse and plans to spend another $50 billion on water over the next 25 years, said water ministry official Abdul Aziz al-Jaber.
Gulf Nations Seek Ways to Reuse Wastewater
By JIM KRANE
.c The Associated Press
ABU DHABI, United Arab Emirates (AP) - As swimming pool suburbia spreads across the desert sands of the booming Gulf, developers and governments are wrangling with a major problem: There is almost no fresh water here.
The skyrocketing costs of desalination plants, long used as the source of most water, is leading governments to look at a possible, cheaper source - the wastewater from sewage plants.
``Is it dirty? Yes. But if it's properly treated, it is valuable,'' said Fady Juez, managing director of Metito, a Dubai-based company that designs water and sewage treatment plants.
Juez was among the experts from some of the world's driest countries who gathered for a two-day conference in the United Arab Emirates' capital of Abu Dhabi this week to seek ways to reuse the contaminated water that flows through their sewers.
The Arabian desert may be rich in oil, but it harbors not a single river.
Despite that, construction booms and government policies of providing free city water have pushed per capita consumption to the highest levels in the world: Water is lavished on golf courses, gardens and fountains, even as groundwater in overtaxed aquifers grows salty and unusable.
All Middle Eastern countries except Iraq and Syria face severe water shortages in coming decades, according to presentations given at the conference.
``We are the driest part of the world,'' Juez said. ``And we are multiplying like mad.''
To compensate, Gulf countries have traditionally turned to desalination, which provides some 60 percent of the region's needs. But such treatment plants are expensive and consume a lot of energy.
Supporters of using wastewater say it can be rendered so pure that it can be drunk - or even used for Muslim ablutions, the pre-prayer ritual washing that requires an even higher level of cleanliness.
Most wastewater here gets cursory treatment before being dumped into the sea or poured into the desert. Only about 1 percent is recycled for farming and landscaping, mainly in the Emirates, Qatar, Oman and Kuwait.
Even if people balk at drinking or washing in treated sewage, participants said recycled wastewater could be quickly redirected toward irrigation and air conditioning, or at least re-injected into aquifers to improve groundwater.
Spend another 10 percent on a treatment plant and wastewater can be made suitable for irrigation, Juez said. For 20 percent more, you can drink it.
Singapore recently opened a treatment plant that uses ultra-fine membranes to convert city sewage into drinking water marketed as NEWater. The plant has become a popular tourist site.
In Saudi Arabia, a Muslim sheik is pushing for recycling water to become a religious duty.
Ahmed al-Sabban, deputy minister in the Saudi Ministry of Islamic Affairs, requested and received a pair of fatwas, or religious edicts, from the kingdom's Islamic authorities that allow mosques to recycle water and use it for ablutions.
``Right now only 2 percent of our water is recycled. That is very bad,'' said al-Sabban, speaking at the conference in white headscarf and long gray beard.
Since the ruling, Al-Sabban said a pair of Jeddah mosques have installed systems that recycle ablutions water - after it is used for ablutions - into the toilet system and then to irrigate the grounds.
Wastewater in Jordan is already filtered and recycled through the country's drinking water reservoir.
Kuwait's huge new Sulaibiyah treatment is the world's largest reverse osmosis plant, which filters sewage to standards higher than those governing drinking water in the United States. But that water is currently only used for irrigation, said George Labib, general manager of the country's utilities authority.
Saudi Arabia is in the midst of implementing a $5 million project for water reuse and plans to spend another $50 billion on water over the next 25 years, said water ministry official Abdul Aziz al-Jaber.
With 5 percent of global population, the Middle East has just 1 percent of the world's accessible fresh water.
But past efforts to convince people in the region not to waste water were frustrated by governments' insistence on giving away the precious commodity, or selling it so cheaply that customers have no idea of its value.
``At least let them know how much it costs,'' Juez said. ``Send them a bill. Tell them 'You used $150 of water this month,' even if you don't charge them.''
I increasingly see horror stories like the following about twice a week now:
Running Water Restored to Chinese City
By JOE McDONALD
.c The Associated Press
HARBIN, China (AP) - Running water was restored Sunday in this city of 3.8 million people where a chemical spill forced a five-day shutdown, but officials warned it was not immediately safe to drink.
Water supplies resumed in Harbin at 6 p.m. - about five hours earlier than expected, the official Xinhua News Agency said. It said tests showed a 50-mile spill of toxic benzene in the Songhua River had passed the city in northeastern China.
State television showed the governor of Heilongjiang province, where Harbin is located, drinking a glass of boiled water drawn from a tap at a local family's home.
``It tastes good,'' said Gov. Zhang Zuoji.
But Wang Minghe, deputy general manager of the Harbin water department, said the water was still ``dangerous'' to drink ``because it's been sitting in pipes for five days.'' He said it should be used only for other purposes, such as washing.
``We will advise citizens when they can drink the water,'' he told reporters taken on a tour of a water-treatment plant.
Wang did not say how soon the water might be considered safe for drinking.
The government will cut water fees to encourage the public to use water as quickly as possible over the next few days to flush out the old supply and ``enable it to be drinkable sooner,'' Wang said.
Earlier Sunday, Liu Yurun, general manager for the Harbin Water Group, the city's water utility, said local radio and television stations would broadcast a color-based indicator of water safety over the next few days - red for unusable, yellow for bathing only and green for drinking.
Work crews were installing more than 1,000 tons of carbon filters at water plants in preparation for treating supplies from the Songhua, according to state media.
Before service resumed, people lined up for another day in freezing wind holding out buckets and teakettles for free water delivered by truck from wells operated by factories and a beer brewery. The city also had trucked in millions of bottles of drinking water and said it was drilling 100 new water wells.
The Harbin disaster resulted from a Nov. 13 explosion at a chemical plant in Jilin, a city about 120 miles southeast. Five people were killed and 10,000 evacuated.
But it was only last week that the government announced the Songhua had been poisoned with 100 tons of benzene. The spill is possibly the biggest ever of the chemical, a potentially cancer-causing compound used in making detergents and plastics.
State media have criticized local officials for reacting too slowly and failing to tell the public the truth promptly. Environmentalists have said the government failed to prepare for such a disaster and questioned the decision to allow construction of a plant handling such dangerous materials near important water supplies.
Premier Wen Jiabao promised a full investigation when he visited Harbin on Saturday and told leaders to see that every resident got running water.
Pictures of Wen visiting a water treatment plant and Harbin residents were on the front pages of newspapers in an apparent effort to assure the public of Beijing's concern for their safety.
The spill is an embarrassment to President Hu Jintao's government, which has made a priority of looking after ordinary Chinese and of repairing environmental damage from 25 years of sizzling economic growth.
Also Saturday, the Chinese foreign minister made an unusual public apology to Moscow's ambassador to Beijing for damage caused by the benzene spill, which is flowing toward a city in the Russian Far East.
Officials in Khabarovsk were preparing emergency plans, including the possible shutdown of its water system. A senior Russian official visited the city Saturday and said its water purification system was being quickly upgraded.
Meanwhile, authorities in southwest China, where another chemical plant accident sparked fears of a second chemical leak, said contamination of a nearby river was under control, Xinhua reported Sunday on its Web site.
State media said the blast that killed one worker occurred Thursday in Dianjiang, a county in the Chongqing region. Schools were closed and about 6,000 people were evacuated.
More than 800 residents and Communist Party members were helping clean the contaminated portion of the Guixi River using screens made of straw and charcoal, Xinhua said Sunday. Water samples were being tested every four hours, it said.
The report did not say what kind of chemicals had tainted the river but said water supplies were safe.
Also Sunday, Sina.com, a popular Chinese news Web site, reported that the central city of Lengshuijiang had its water supply suspended for 12 hours last week after waste water containing ammonium nitrate was discharged into a nearby river.
The spill occurred when a wall holding back the waste collapsed, but tests showed the pollution did not rise to unacceptable levels and would not affect cities downstream, the site said.

EVTN up nicely in the last week. Anyone accumulating in the .40's - 60's would be happy now.
Thanks Kp,
I find it interesting that the shakerz group left BWDI and the price is still holding up.
There is no one modrating this board as Dream and Navyseal are also MIA. Maybe someone else would take it over-Kp.
Armyseal, Was recent conversation with Kit still positive?
Where's the news?
Armyseal mentioned on another board that he was going to phone Kit. Army, what was said?
Armyseal, are you still holding? Where've you been?
Is this the first stock you've ever traded?
re: special massages
Isn't that why they came out of the meeting smiling?
I hope he phones you back.
I think the way a company treats their shareholders is and indicator on how they run the company.
Is it in the realm of possibilities that she can take your number for Kit to phone you back?
And did they come out of the room with smiles on their faces?
Armyseal, what does the receptionist say, that Kit is out, he'll call you back?
Does BWDI have a public relations firm?
Thanks
Thanks Cheer--I picked up some shares on the cheap today.
"It's easy to have faith when things are going well."
---I don't know who said that but it's a good thing for me to keep in mind.
Any thoughts on EVTN? they are in discussions with overseas company on Wastewater equipment licensing and have off shore/oil progress.
Hope you are back soon chartstalker.
Best to you and your mom.
Fiancial Adviser,
Not surprised to see the report of mortgage apps down.
Of the 9 mortgage brokers we had at the bank I work at only 3 are left.
I think the report next month/quarter will be substantially lower

Rocky, I really like your handling of the GTEL hub-board and the stock GTEL. I kept about 7000 shares from GTEL's heady days of 1999.
I have mostly recently added to that position and hope, as all investors do, the stratellite has a successful launch.
Thank you for the time you put into keeping it all clean.
