Our technology comes from Los Alamos, the University of Texas, New Mexico Tech, the University of Washington, and Nasa. The key innovation is both in the media we leverage and the reactors we deploy that target specific containment classes: Suspended solids, especially oil & grease; metals, heavy metals, and metalloids; VOCs and other types of hydrocarbons; sulfur; scalants such as calcium and magnesium; TDS and naturally occurring radioactive materials (NORM). The "IX-Force" is a remarkable set of people: chemical and mechanical engineers, chemists, physicists, geologists, hydrologists, public policy experts, and community and stakeholder relations people have all come together at IX Water to help industry reduce its freshwater withdrawals, leaving more water for people.

Advanced technology that solves the challenges of treating high-solids water without the hassles of constant maintenance, filter changes and backwashes, you’ve come to the right place. TEQUATIC™ PLUS Filters are a true breakthrough in cross-flow filtration that take tough jobs in stride. They treat water containing total suspended solids (TSS) up to 10,000 mg/L and greater with a much higher water recovery and lower cost than traditional filters like bags, cartridges, media and automatic self-cleaning filters. With water being so integral to life and progress, it’s important for industry to get the most out of every drop. TEQUATIC™ PLUS Filters do just that by removing tough solids from dirty water — even in the presence of fats, oils, greases and fibers. This enables even the most challenging water to be reused and recycled, conserving an important resource. TEQUATIC™ PLUS Filters operate as a primary filter, as a prefilter for Ultrafiltration (UF) and other filtration technologies, or as a post filter following filtration technologies like Moving Bed BioReactor (MBBR) and Dissolved Air Flotation (DAF). They can be used as a complement or alternative to existing filters, bringing many benefits to a variety of applications. For example, when used as a prefilter to clarification, DAF and aeration, TEQUATIC™ PLUS Filters can reduce footprint in terms of space, chemicals and air requirements. They can also enhance downstream processing steps by protecting membranes, reducing bag and cartridge filter change-outs, and by reducing backwash cycles in media filters. TEQUATIC PLUS Filters help reduce your cost of ownership through higher uptime and water recovery, lower maintenance and consumables, and reduced waste disposal surcharges. They minimize headaches while making your operations more sustainable.
