EAST SETAUKET, N.Y., Sept. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The expansion and upgrade of the Peirce Island wastewater treatment plant in Portsmouth, NH was completed by the end of August 2020.

Key Points: 
  • EAST SETAUKET, N.Y., Sept. 8, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The expansion and upgrade of the Peirce Island wastewater treatment plant in Portsmouth, NH was completed by the end of August 2020.
  • Designed by AECOM, an engineering consultancy, the upgraded Peirce Island facility now provides secondary treatment and nitrogen removal that meets strict federal environmental standards.
  • Like PENETRON ADMIX used for the BAF building, PENETRON penetrates deeply into the concrete structure, filling micro-cracks, pores and capillaries with an insoluble crystalline formation.
  • "The new Peirce Island facility offers increased treatment capacity, cleaner effluent and thanks to Penetron crystalline technology a markedly more durable treatment plant with decreased maintenance requirements," notes Christopher Chen.

With this FDA clearance, O3 is now indicated for use in both cerebral and somatic applications, both in the U.S. and in CE mark countries, for all patient populations.

Key Points: 
  • With this FDA clearance, O3 is now indicated for use in both cerebral and somatic applications, both in the U.S. and in CE mark countries, for all patient populations.
  • Unlike peripheral pulse oximetry, which reflects the bodys general arterial blood oxygenation, O3 provides information about the local tissues hemoglobin oxygen saturation, both in cerebral and somatic applications.
  • As an addition to O3 cerebral oximetry, the somatic component could serve as an earlier warning of impaired tissue perfusion.
  • Along with FDA clearance for somatic monitoring, the O3 measurements cHb, O2Hb, and HHb are cleared for the monitoring of relative changes in oxygenated hemoglobin (O2Hb), deoxygenated hemoglobin (HHb), and total hemoglobin (cHb) in adult brains.
