ANNOUNCES LAUNCH OF NEW PRODUCT THE MOBILE MAXCLEAR

On March 22nd, the day that the United Nations designated as World Water Day, a small company in Princeton, NJ provides a solution for a big problem: giving poor people around the globe access to clean water for drinking, hygiene and farming. Yesterday, WorldWater & Technologies, Inc. celebrated the 24th annual World Water Day by introducing their newest -powered unit, the Mobile MaxClear that converts water from anywhere into clean, purified .

CEO and Chairman, Quentin Kelly, was the first of three speakers for the event and gave a brief history about the company. Kelly also outlined how the world is “heading for a real crisis” with mass migration pending to already overcrowded cities due to scarce clean water sources in various parts of the world.  With their patented solar-powered water purification units, Kelly said, “we can keep people where they are.”

Invited guests braved the 34 degree and 20 mph winds outside the WorldWater headquarters where three of their solar-powered water purification units were on display. Following Kelly was Assemblyman and former Rahway Mayor James Kennedy who described the company’s role in providing much-needed to thousands of Haitians after the devastating 2010 earthquake. Former Djibouti Ambassador Lange Schermerhorn, who is a strong proponent of solar power, gave brief remarks on WorldWater’s lifesaving products used in Africa.

WorldWater VP and chief engineer, Michael Ingles, provided a brief overview and live demonstration of the new Mobile MaxClear™ as well as the larger Mobile MaxPure® and the suitcase-sized SHEPS™ (solar-hybrid expeditionary power & purification system). The units each cost from $12,000 to $120,000, and pump from 10,000 to 30,000 gallons of purified water per day. Each unit is solar-powered, stand-alone, mobile and quiet (no generator). The systems can purify water from any source, including salt and brackish water.
Units have already been deployed by government officials, the military, and private organizations in over 20 countries, including Iraq, Afghanistan, Egypt, Sudan and the Philippines.

Fox News Worldmobilewater recently reported that “on World Water Day, March 22, the U.N. will ask governments to spend the money necessary” to give all poor people access to uncontaminated water and working toilets in or near their homes by 2030. The article stated that according to the World Bank, “it could cost about $114 billion a year to reach the 2030 goal.”  Ingles pointed out that the Mobile MaxPure delivers 30,000 gallons of clean water per day, which costs less than $.01 per gallon. To deliver the same amount of water via a 747 aircraft fully loaded with bottled water costs more than $1 per gallon.

In 1993, the United Nations General Assembly officially designated March 22nd as World Water Day. Coordinated by UN-Water in collaboration with governments and partners, World Water Day provides a way for organizations worldwide to raise awareness of the global water crisis.
