iCell Selects WHEE as Design Firm final

iCell Sustainable Nutrition, Hong Kong,(iCell) has selected Woodruff and Howe Engineering (“WHEE” www.WHEEinc.com of Cumming, Georgia ) as its engineering firm in the USA to design and develop projects using iCell spatented Single Cell Protein Production process.   

iCell has been working with various sitesin the USA which need a solution to their food process water treatment issues –and is also working with investors for funding projects to solve these water issues and to integrate seafood aquaculture at the same sites.  

Woodruff & Howe has 20+ years of environmental engineering & design experience, with the deep domain knowledge needed for working in food waste-water treatment projects.   

 “When we learned of the iCell solution, we considered it a potential new tool for the food processing industry – it takes water & nutrient recycling to a new level” says  Steven Woodruff, CEOof WHEE – “together we have already identified various sites where this new solution could benefit our food processing customer base, and will benefit the environment as well.  This technology also has the potential to enhance food processors’ goals for environment alsustainability, water recycling, and nutrient recovery and beneficial reuse.  We have built a mobile pilotsystem and have successfully ran the iCell process on food processing waste-water streams.”

 The agreement between the two firms will be such that WHEE will manage the site evaluation and engineering design for iCell systems across the USA. These systems will integrate with Aquaculture systems such that a unique Water Recycle, Protein Production and Aquaculture facility will exist on the same site.  

Mark Rottmann CEO of iCell indicates that“WHEE is the perfect selection for this work – they have the skill sets of the largest firms, but none of the bureaucracy – this will accelerate our speed to completion as they have a laser like customer focus and understand the value ofthe iCell solution in the market place”.   iCell expects to have its first integrated Aquaculture project announced as we enter the new year.
