| 04/24/2007 | | | Siemens Introduces the Innovative S3 System Technology for Pharmaceutical Water Treatment Systems |
| Siemens Water Technologies offers an innovative proprietary process that reduces the amount of energy and water consumed, and the wastewater generated, by a pharmaceutical water purification system. The S3 System Technology achieves these benefits by shutting down the make-up water system during periods of non use, so that it does not continuously recirculate the make-up water. Any size application will realize energy and water savings from the S3 System; however, applications with higher flow rates and redundant process trains, and in areas where utility costs are high, will benefit most.
