Speaking at the event, South African business leader Kevin Gast, the co-founder and CEO of GAST Clearwater, particularly noted the benefits of its Advanced Low Tension Electroporation Process (ALTEP) system for cost-effectively and sustainably treating wastewater.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLike the discovery of the light bulb or fusion reactions, our ALTEP system is ground-breaking in our field because it has completely changed the way in which humans treat water,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThrough the use of this technology we are now able to treat so-called \u2018dirty waters\u2019 without relying on chemicals, biologicals, membranes or mechanical elements, minimising the environmental impact of water treatment processes or the need for maintenance. In addition to being more sustainable, this also means that our technology is up to 25% cheaper than traditional treatment systems, making our solution far more accessible and affordable for businesses and public entities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Worryingly, research by the World Health Organisation and Unicef shows that one in four people globally do not have access to safe drinking water, while the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation estimates that unsafe water is responsible for as many as 1.2 million deaths each year.<\/p>\n<p>Addressing the need for improved, cost-effective water sanitation, GAST Clearwater\u2019s ALTEP system is utilized in lieu of traditional treatment processes like reverse osmosis or chlorination.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis system means that we can clean more types of water at a faster rate and far more efficiently than any conventional system currently on the market, no matter the quality of the source water. Additionally, this system achieves a very high throughput that is even able to destroy Per- and Polyfluorinated Substances or the PFAS chemicals which are a common concern around the world,\u201d stated Gast.<\/p>\n<p>Similar to the way in which Tesla\u2019s battery systems disrupted the motor industry, this technology is likewise earmarked to disrupt the field of water treatment.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs GAST Clearwater, our mission is clear: water for mankind, one drop at a time. We finally cracked the code and our new ALTEP system marks a revolutionary leap in technological capabilities within the water treatment space. We believe that our technology will become the gold standard in various industries and markets, but especially in secondary and tertiary treatment processes,\u201d he concluded.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/mypr.co.za\/contact\/featured\/\">CLICK HERE to submit your press release to MyPR.co.za<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p> <span class=\"post-views-icon dashicons dashicons-chart-bar\"><\/span> <span class=\"post-views-label\">Press Release Views since 1 July 2022:<\/span> <span class=\"post-views-count\">34<\/span> <\/p>\n<div class=\"entry-pagination pagination\">Pages: <span class=\"post-page-numbers current\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>1<\/span> <a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\/south-african-born-company-joins-global-symposium-on-future-of-water\/2\/\" class=\"post-page-numbers\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Page <\/span>2<\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/mypr.co.za\">Source: MyPR.co.za<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republish for Free Republish This Story Republish our articles for free, online or in print, under a Creative Commons license. 08 November, 2022: South African-born water treatment company GAST Clearwater was recently invited to join the prestigious Goldman Sachs Water Symposium in New York, where it discussed the numerous benefits of its next-generation water treatment [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":242670,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[9021],"tags":[3257],"class_list":{"0":"post-242669","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-mypr","8":"tag-mypr","9":"entry"},"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/south-african-born-company-joins-global-symposium-on-future-of-water.png","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/242669","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=242669"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/242669\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/242670"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=242669"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=242669"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.myza.co.za\/press\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=242669"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
