Go to the EPA site and look in the "verified technologies" section...I posted this site earlier and I'll dig it out and send it to you...

I'll also make sure it's posted in the I-Box, if it isn't already.

"the EPA does recommend technologies, like RCCH. It's through their "Verified Technologies" program where they not only recommend, but they publish the company's Verification Report, Statement Test/Quality Assurance Plans and Verification Protocols"

All verifiable facts, open to anyone...

I reached out to the NSF and got this reply:

Mr. XXXX, The performance of the IWS System during the ETV evaluation is available at the EPA ETV web site (http://www.epa.gov/etv/pubs/600r06130.pdf). The system operated quite well during the evaluation for organics (BOD), solids, nitrogen and phosphorus. There really are no standards for decentralized systems for nutrients, but the IWS system performed well, with TN reduction of 83 to 88% and TP reduction of 56 to 76%. As a measure, the requirements for certification for nitrogen reduction under NSF/ANSI Standard 245 is 50% reduction of TN.

I hope this information is helpful. Please let me know if you have any further questions. Best regards. Tom Stevens

I also spoke with with a couple of people there (independent conversations) and both spoke very highly of IWS and RCC (in particular Claude Smith). That was encouraging to hear.

You might want to call over there and see if they describe any new projects that they know about as well.

frogy, you stated:

What I don't see is a real connection between the IWS that developed those systems and the current RCC/IWS.

How'bout Claude?

The key contact for International Wastewater Systems, Inc. was:

frog, you asked: My question is; Given that whatever Gene obtained when he picked up IWS for nothing, did it still have exclusive rights to the systems being hyped here?

If IWS failed as a company allowing it to be picked up for nothing, is anyone today, who is using and reselling the systems, obligated in any way to pay licensing fees to RCC/IWS?

The Verification report posted above, illustrates the components of the IWS system. All materials are readily available. Excluding the software that IWS wrote to run the PCL.

My question to you is, How do you know what RCC paid for IWS?

The International Wastewater Systems’ (IWS) Model 6000 SBR includes a 6,000 gallon (gal) equalization tank, a 6,000 gal modified SBR, a 3,000 gal holding tank, a coagulation injection system, a gravity sand filtration system, and an ultraviolet (UV) disinfection system. The IWS SBR is designed to provide treatment by optimizing the treatment conditions using a computer controlled and monitored system of pumps, floats, and probes to measure, monitor, and adjust the treatment parameters within the unit. The computer control system uses a programmable logic controller (PLC) and a software program, written by IWS, for the master control of the SBR and for communication outside the facility by modem and phone line installed with the unit.

The filtration system consists of a Centra-Flow dynamic bed sand filter designed to remove suspended solids, coagulated materials, and finer solids that cause turbidity

The UV system is a standard UV design.
