| 08/15/2008 | | | Siemens to Provide IPS Composting System Agitators for Burlington County, New Jersey Composting Plant |
| Siemens Water Technologies has been awarded a contract to provide five IPS Composting System agitators to the Burlington County, New Jersey Board of Chosen Freeholders, as part of an upgrade to the county’s 10-year-old composting plant. The plant supports the county’s biosolids composting and beneficial use program for 14 municipal wastewater treatment plants. The new IPS equipment will replace the plant’s existing 10-year-old Siemens’ composting agitators. Two agitators will be delivered this year, with the other three installed in early 2009. This schedule will allow the capital cost to be spread out for two fiscal years, and the entire order delivered within the shortest time frame so as not to impede plant operations.

| 12/14/2006 | | | Siemens: New solutions for disinfecting drinking water and wastewater improve water quality and reduce risks to health |
| The price and availability of water will have a similar influence on the Asian economies as oil and gas imports do today. "Through further development of our product lines and systems for disinfection we are making a contribution to meeting the rising demand for fresh water from industry and the population," explained Roger Radke, who is responsible for global water business at Siemens within the Industrial Solutions and Services Group (I&S). He said the increasing microorganism load in rivers was jeopardizing human health, and making it more difficult to make optimum use of water as a raw material. "It is only with additional water treatments and closed-circuit solutions that greater demand and higher expectations of water quality can be satisfied", continued Radke. "Siemens currently has the broadest range of products and process knowledge for every stage of water treatment and provides all-embracing solutions for industry and municipalities."

| 10/24/2006 | | | Siemens Water Technologies Sees Growing Demand for Low-Pressure Membranes in Water Reuse Applications |
| Water reuse is on the rise as global demand for the world's fresh water supplies increases. By recycling and reusing treated wastewater, communities and industries can save on the costs of clean water, ensure adequate supplies, and help to preserve a diminishing natural resource. The increase in water reuse has been driven largely by innovative treatment technologies that are both cost effective and reliable in removing harmful bacteria and pathogens. Siemens Water Technologies has seen a steady increase in the demand for its water reuse technologies, especially its Memcor membrane products. These hollow-fiber, low-pressure membranes have been used extensively in municipal and industrial applications worldwide, treating both secondary and tertiary wastewater to a high quality standard.
