WI Environmental Surpasses China National Standard
SEATTLE, Apr. 22 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
Just in time for Earth Day 2010, WI Environmental LLC a U.S. environmental company announces it is the
first and only company to date to achieve and surpass the Chinese National Standard for remediation of
hexavalent chromium. WI Environmental's trademarked chemical XR-88 renders inert heavy metals including
lead, zinc, nickel and arsenic and others. It's estimated over 10 million metric tons exist in China and it's
believed India has the same problem. Hexavalent chromium is a by-product of certain manufacturing
processes and is outlawed in many countries including the U.S. due to its highly toxic and deadly
consequences to human life and the environment.
WI Environmental working with a Shandong company performed over 100 tests and verifications. The final
result was not only obtaining the Chinese National Standard but exceeding it by more than double. XR-88's
advanced technology requires little equipment cost and is extremely cost effective as it treats most
contaminants such as wastewater and acid mine drainage with a mere .1 to .2% solution.
"Emerging nations are now starting to realize the cost of industrialization and profits and the severe
consequences to human health without proper laws and enforcement," said Timothy Wandell, president of WI
Environmental. "We had a great five year experience in China and found their people very hard working and
committed to China's environmental well being. Our company looks forward to working with governments and
companies in Asia to assist in their pollution remediation goals."
Due to the worldwide need for usable water and average cost of $1 to $2 per treated ton in regards to most
applications XR-88 answers many countries needs for pollution remediation for safe water and food sources.
Heavy metal and poison contamination in rivers, lakes and soil resulting in contaminated air, water and soil is
a major concern effecting human health in a wide variety including escalation of cancer and medical costs at a
staggering rate.
