Fuchs Gas-und Wassertechnik have seventy-two (72) ATAD plants worldwide, with twenty (20) plus in North America. Their first commercial plant started-up in 1977 and is operating to this day. Sanitherm has a direct license with Fuchs for Canada. Sanitherm has worked with Fuchs since 1987 and was instrumental in delivering the first North American ATAD plant, as well as the first U.S. ATAD plant at Grand Chute, Wisconsin. In June of 1996 the American Academy of Engineering (AAE), of Annapolis, Maryland, awarded Grand Chute its 1996 Engineering Grand Prize in the design category. Sanitherm also worked closely with Fuchs and the U.S. EPA to secure the National PFRP Equivalency for the Fuchs ATAD process. Sanitherm's second U.S. plant at McMinnville, Oregon and a plant at Long Sault, Ontario both started up successfully early in 1996.

We would be pleased to send you DATA sheets to allow us to prepare a preliminary design for your situation. Fuchs now have successful industrial ATAD installations as well. It has been our experience that one of the best ways to be introduced to ATAD is to work on an actual design. Typically, ATAD will be attractive to municipalities of up to 100,000 population. It is cost effective, simple and safe to operate. We will deliver a Class A sludge as defined by the EPA 503 Regulations.
