Philadelphia/Rancho Cuca, CA - Rohm and Haas Co. and Basin Water Inc. have announced the formation of an alliance that will address the need for quality water across a broad range of market segments in the United States and Canada. Initially serving the potable water market, the alliance will also focus on developing new technology to address groundwater treatment issues, produced water from oil and gas operations, and emerging water-recovery applications. New offerings for the potable water market will be jointly developed to include media for the selective removal of inorganic contaminants, synthetic organics and nitrate destruction/brine recycle technology.

 

The alliance will be marketed via the Basin Water business model. As part of the agreement, Basin Water will have exclusive access to Rohm and Haas ion exchange resin technology for selected markets. Rohm and Haas will continue to offer its Advanced Amberpack™ System and Amberlite™ PW line of resins for drinking water markets outside of the alliance territory and for traditional industrial water treatment markets.
