USFILTER ACQUIRES MCS TECHNOLOGIES LLC - A PETROLEUM WASTE MANAGEMENT SERVICES LEADER

USFilter Operating Services, Inc. (USFilter) has acquired MCS Technologies LLC (MCS), a leader in the refinery waste separation and treatment services market based in Corpus Christi, Texas. USFilter will combine MCS's operations with its USFilter Scaltech subsidiary to create an outsourcing services company capable of handling all phases of the management, separation and secondary treatment of waste produced by oil refineries.

MCS provides separation and treatment outsourcing services for a variety of liquid, solid and oil-bearing waste streams. The company uses a proprietary, cost-saving technology featuring a compact, portable method to eliminate waste streams and solids generated in refineries. USFilter will immediately take over the servicing of MCS's extensive client base of major refiners along the Gulf Coast, including Sunoco, Exxon-Mobil and Citgo.

"With MCS coming into the USFilter fold and the earlier acquisition of Scaltech, whose technology also falls under the same sector, our offering to the refining industry has been strengthened considerably," said Ron Davis, executive vice president and general manager, USFilter Operating Services. "We are very excited about the service portfolio of this new business unit. The refining sector has shown considerable willingness to outsource the waste stream processing and recovery function during the last few years. The combined strengths of MCS and Scaltech put us in an unparalleled position to grow our service offering to this important segment of the U.S. industrial sector."

Mike Windsor, former president of MCS, will serve as vice president and general manager of the new company. "Already an industry leader, USFilter can now offer its clients an even greater, more comprehensive package of wastewater and waste management outsourcing services," Windsor stated. "By combining the strengths of MCS and USFilter Scaltech, we are well positioned to serve both large- and small-scale refineries."

The newly formed business unit will employ almost 200 people and generate more than $25 million in annual revenue. Jim Gentry, formerly vice president of USFilter Scaltech, will serve as vice president of business development for the new division, and Lee Cook will serve as director of operations.

USFilter currently holds the top position in the industrial outsourcing market for water and wastewater services, according to Public Works Financing. The company provides water and wastewater services to thousands of companies across the nation.
