\u00a9 Kurita America<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Kurita America, part of the Kurita Group, a leading global provider of industrial water treatment solutions, today announced a collaboration with Solugen, a bio-based chemical manufacturer, to develop a suite of new carbon-negative water treatment products. These innovative solutions will introduce high-performing, bio-based substitutes to phosphorus and other petroleum derived additives currently on the market.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cWe are very excited to expand our partnership with Solugen to create innovative technologies that tackle many of the challenges of traditional water treatment programs,\u201d said Mike Mowbray, senior vice president of the Marketing and Technology Group for Kurita America<\/strong>. \u201cThis collaboration will significantly enhance our existing Creating Shared Value (CSV) business that helps customers achieve sustainability goals.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Kurita\u2019s CSV business, one of the company\u2019s fastest growing segments, focuses on products, technologies, and business models that save water, reduce CO2<\/sub> emissions, and minimize industrial waste while improving plant productivity for customers. One of the recently developed product lines is the Tower NG series of cooling products, which replaces most of the traditional water treatment chemistries with a combination of the latest polymer technology and Solugen\u2019s proprietary biodegradable corrosion inhibitor. By leveraging innovative bio-based solutions, the Tower NG series eliminates the dependence on traditional organo-phosphonates while providing equivalent or better results for deposit and corrosion control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cKurita\u2019s shared vision for driving sustainability through innovative solutions makes them an ideal partner for expanding the use of Solugen\u2019s carbon-negative products,\u201d said Gaurab Chakrabarti, chief executive officer of Solugen<\/strong>. \u201cWe look forward to the collective impact we will have in providing the water treatment industry with decarbonized solutions that don\u2019t sacrifice on performance.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

About Solugen<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Solugen\u2019s novel chemienzymatic manufacturing process converts dextrose (corn sugar) into chemicals traditionally derived from fossil fuels. The Houston-based company recently broke ground on a new 500,000 sf biomanufacturing facility in Marshall, Minnesota, which will produce the innovative products to support this collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
