EWS provides mobile, modular produced-water reduction capacity for operators and water-midstream companies. VOX™ can be deployed at production sites, integrated into existing water infrastructure or configured in multi-unit centralized installations.
VOX™ provides another water-management outlet when disposal, pipeline, recycling or other infrastructure capacity is constrained, helping reduce the risk that produced water becomes a bottleneck to hydrocarbon production.
VOX™ 1000 is EWS’s high-capacity produced-water reduction system. Current commercial specifications describe up to ~1,000 barrels per day of evaporation capacity per unit, with mobile and modular deployment and the ability to combine units for larger facilities.
Current commercial specifications indicate 50-90% water-volume reduction, dependent on produced-water TDS.
Yes. The platform is modular, and multiple VOX™ 1000 units can be combined to support higher-volume centralized water-management facilities.
VOX™ reduces produced-water volume before it reaches disposal infrastructure, lowering throughput to SWDs and helping extend effective disposal-system capacity and useful life.
Yes. VOX™ is designed to work within existing produced-water infrastructure and can be deployed at the source, within water-midstream systems or at centralized facilities.
EWS provides operations, maintenance and remote monitoring.
EWS can model deployment using Water Volume, TDS/Chemistry, Oil/Solids, Disposal Cost, Available Gas and Existing Infrastructure.
Concentrated brine can be managed through appropriate downstream pathways, which may include disposal, brine utilization, downstream treatment or resource-recovery strategies depending on the application.
VOX™ can function as a concentration step within a broader treatment train. Downstream pathways may include additional treatment and water-recovery strategies where technically and economically appropriate.
The EWS platform is being developed to support brine-utilization and resource-recovery pathways as part of broader produced-water treatment architecture.
EWS has 4 issued patents covering its VOX™ technology and continues to develop additional intellectual property.
EWS has multi-jurisdictional operating and permitting experience and has completed third-party stack emissions testing. EWS has a history of permitting in Colorado, Louisiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Wyoming, and West Virginia, with New Mexico expected next.
