EMITA welcomes new members
The East Midlands International Trade Association (EMITA) has welcomed new members from across the East Midlands. Adriaan Vickery, Chairman of
EMITA, said: “Companies that are ambitious about sustainable growth have always looked outside the UK for additional trade opportunities. I strongly believe that, in 2018, we will see a surge in interest from UK- based businesses wanting to grow and know that export and international trade have to form part of that strategy. “Irrespective of what happens
with Brexit there are opportunities for British businesses to capitalise on and organisations such as EMITA work hard with members to make sure they know about them, are best placed to capitalise on them and are able to share their knowledge and best practice. That’s why EMITA is growing and will continue to grow.”

system shut downs for descaling. In parallel to combating struvite,
a notable reduction in polymer can be achieved through the patented technology embedded in I Range units. Several facilities in the USA and the UK have seen reductions of up to 25% in polymer usage on dewatering equipment such as belt presses and centrifuges. The Water Environment
Federation (WEF) is a not-for-profit technical and educational organisation of 34,000 members and 75 affiliated member associations representing water quality organisations around the world. WEF took in to
consideration field data from several USA waste water facilities when making its decision. Dr. Samuel Jeyanayagam has
also provided third-party verification after running trials at the Robert W. Hite Treatment Facility, Denver, Colorado. Alonit Stefanini, Director, said:
“My father invented Hydropath Technology and my parents set up 25 years ago in their garage. The Hydropath team and our partners around the world work tirelessly to introduce Hydroflow to new sectors and industries. We are so proud that the technology is being recognised for its innovation”
