Bacteria Treatment for On-the-Fly,
Storage Pit and pre-SWD Treatment
Gradiant Energy Services’ (GES) Free Radical Disinfection (FRD™) technology provides high-volume disinfection treatment to control bacteria and treat water for storage pit maintenance, on-the-fly disinfection prior to hydraulic fracturing operations and pre-salt water disposal (SWD) injection. The same technology and process may also be used to reduce the level of hydrogen sulfide in water.
How our solution works
GES’ FRD™ technology is a safe, environmentally friendly bacteria treatment solution that focuses on the most difficult part of bacteria treatment: quality control. FRD™ uses electrolysis to generate a mixed oxidant solution including multiple free radicals, which is injected into the water stream. The ions bind to and remove the bacteria, resulting in bacteria-free water that maintains the integrity of the reservoirs for extended periods of time.
