The cutting-edge technology is now being deployed in the Marcellus Shale, at Eureka Resources' water treatment facility in Williamsport, PA.  Aqua-Pure's NOMAD units are now recycling up to 300,000 gallons of wastewater every day from customers that include Range Resources, XTO Energy and Chesapeake Energy.\"We look forward to hosting the industry at our facilities in the Barnett, where we pioneered our NOMAD evaporator technology for use in shale gas plays,\" said Halldorson.  \"We're proud of the important work we're doing here to provide cost-effective and sustainable alternatives to wastewater disposal, which we've recently introduced in the Marcellus as well.\"Halldorson will participate in the 12:10 pm session on Thursday, Oct. 28, on \"Water Disposal: Technology Focus,\" which will include a detailed exposition of available alternatives in water disposal and pre-disposal treatment technologies.  Halldorson recently addressed the Global Unconventional Gas...
