Earthworks Environmental
All systems are now in place for the METS process to finally be available as a “turn key” opportunity to qualifying Licensees. EarthWorks Environmental is providing the equipment, tech licenses, supplies, training and support of the METS technology as a growing business and information collaborative to benefit the METS Licensee base.
It is our goal to have 20 METS Licensees in full operation by the end of 2011. Our current focus has been overseas with exports to Canada, Peru, South Korea and Northern Ireland where aggressive markets and process requirements are the most demanding. EarthWorks is currently offering individual METS Licenses on a limited release basis in the continental US. Our most recent placement has been in California with a unit prepping to ship to Mexico City. We are assisting our Mexico City METS Licensee in the remediation of 40,000 cubic meters of soil at the PeMex 18 de Marzo Refinery site.
At present, our hope is to provide referral projects to our licensees as acceptance of the METS technology becomes more widespread. EarthWorks will treat soil on a limited basis of varying soil type and contaminant type in efforts to broaden our knowledge and where a METS Licensee is not currently available. Our business focus has shifted this last year to full scale product manufacturing and support of the Matrix Enhanced Treatment System and METS Licensees.
