Last week, Res-Kem shipped a condensate polisher to a New Jersey university. This condensate polisher will be installed as part of a new onsite power production facility at the university operated by an independent energy development company. They will produce power for the university under a DBOM (Design, Build, Operate, Maintain) agreement. Excess power produced gets sold to the PJM.
