Purifics
Mission Statement:
To develop, manufacture and supply turn key systems for the
purification of water and air of organics, salts and heavy
metals. These systems use clean, environmentally attractive
technologies which are electrically driven with little or no
consumables or waste products generated.
Goal:
We will understand the environmental treatment requirements of
our clients. We will provide system solutions to meet these
requirements, on time, the first time, every time.
Facilites:
The company has a 6,000 square foot facility comprised of office,
laboratory and manufacturing space. Within the company are
the necessary business systems and equipment required to develop,
manufacture and market the company's technologies on an
international scale. The company can also draw upon the resources
of the University of Waterloo and the University of Western Ontario, Fanshawe
College and their immense skills and resource base as needed for
talent and technology support.
Management:
The company has three Professional Engineers on staff with
extensive expertise in environmental technologies, installations
and operations. The management has extensive background in
system development, system integration and project management of
complex systems. Additional scientific and technical expertise
is on retainer or under contract for specific requirements.
Ownership:
The company is privately owned and was incoporated in the
Province of Ontario on Dec. 1, 1993. All patents and trademarks
associated with its Photo-Cat AOP water and air treatment
systems are owned by the company.
Research and Development:
The company is committed to ongoing R&D to advance or develop new
and existing products. The company directs a significant amount
of its resources and revenue towards this goal.

Purifics(r) 'photo-cat(r)' Treatment System For The Decontamination Of Water.
Photo-Cat(R) systems destroy organic pollutants in water. A light activated titanium dioxide (TiO2) catalyst is used to destroy organics contaminants of concern. The treatment process is similar to thermal catalytic processes except that the TiO2 catalyst uses light rather than heat to be activated; consequently, the process is extremely energy efficient. The system operates at ambient temperatures and pressures. It can also operate at elevated temperatures and pressures to meet the clients process requirements. 'Permitted' systems have been supplied to operate in wet environments, nuclear environments, and environments with an explosion hazards.
Benefits of Photo-Cat(R) water treatment systems include simplicity, low operating and maintenance costs, and the ability to treat turbid or opaque fluids directly with no pretreatment. The robustness of the process is seen in the established field histories. Systems run autonomously and only require annual maintenance.
