Water Division Evolution

Bench Phase

2017- VDLP’s engineers designed a Cloacina Membrane Bioreactor (MBR) to handle all the human wastewater for the initial golf project.

2019 - VSFB informs LGSS that because of drought we need to find a non- groundwater, non-State Water source of water for irrigation. In the Draft San Antonio Basin GSP plan GSI recommends investigating using treated oil produced water for irrigation and additional water supplies. 

2021- Magna Imperio designed a multi stacked treatment train built around Reverse Osmosis with additional pre and post treatment to convert produced water into irrigation water. 

2021- LGSS introduced to BrightWater HDC. We did an initial visit and some batch testing at the Codega Resource Recovery Center at Stanford University. 

2022 - MNS designed a BOD for a Wastewater Reclamation Project to irrigate the entire golf complex as an alternative to produced water.

2022 - MNS designed a Water Reclamation Facility using produced water for irrigation of the golf complex.

PILOT PHASE

2022 - after much research we focused on Hydrodynamic Cavitation with the BrightWater HDC. Following more lab and water sample testing BrightWater HDC presented a proposal for a Pilot Test for the Treatment of Oilfield Produced Water to be conducted on Firefighter Hill on VSFB. 

2022 - during our due diligence period on Hydrodynamic Cavitation we became aware of Clark Easter and Global Water Innovations. 

2023 - In January Santa Barbara County effectively “shut in” SPR by denying their new trucking permit thus halting operations and postponing our pilot test on Firefighter Hill on VSFB. BrightWater then conducted a pilot by shipping SPR produced water to their site XXX.

2023 - GWI and LGSS form a Teaming Agreement that in part has GWI taking over all pilot testing for both companies.  

2024 - GWI determines that in a head-to-head competition AOP is more efficient and cost effective than Hydrodynamic Cavitation so we will now focus on that pre-treatment softening technology in our treatment train for all of our combined pilots. 

2025 - GWI focuses on 6 upcoming pilots including the Firefighter Hill Pilot which is now back in play.
