The specific rationale generally upheld by each of these clients varies, and comes under the following headings. These are not our claims, these are what the client is looking for. Often the outcomes match to the client’s objective/s.

Irrigation client’s rationale

:
Irrigators both large and small of all styles and types from vineyards to orchards to vegetable farms to turf farms. All are looking to get better growth and profit outcomes using less water to do so.

Organic farming client’s rationale:

Organic farmers who wish to clear out mineral blockages from irrigation system without the use of chemicals that may negatively affect soil microbiology and interfere with organic licensing. Improve percolation/penetration through soil to roots.

Greenhouse grower client’s rationale:

Greenhouse farmers/operators generally want maintenance-free irrigation systems with improvement in yields. Especially price-by-weight crops.

Stockman/rancher’s rationale:

Ranch operators want to increase animal’s preference to drink the available groundwater (which is free/cheap), rather than rain/dam/river water which they may pay for or is low in supply. They want animals to put weight on when drinking the groundwater.

County/council client’s rationale:

Municipal counties/councils for irrigating parks and gardens with improved growth, infrastructure protection, lower water consumption due to easier percolation/penetration through soil to roots

Golf course client’s rationale:

Golf Courses use artesian bore water and Hydrosmart to prevent blockages of pipes/sprays and increase grass health and vigour significantly. Prevention of iron staining on golfer’s clothes

Ranch/station client’s rationale:

Homes of farmers forced to use alternative substandard water sources to keep farm and home gardens going when rain water runs out or low and to have calcium/iron/salt managed in house and garden use.

Utility client’s rationale:

Utilities looking to reduce chemical costs and offer non-chemical scale management

Wastewater client’s rationale

:
Textile factories wish to reduce chemical inputs on wastewater or produce wastewater of a greater clarity. Utilities and industries wish to clear large pipes of built up sludge that contains a mixture of organic and inorganic material. Counties wish to increase efficiency of secondary and tertiary effluent treatment ponds. Many uses on ship waste water including prevention of struvite buildup.

High tech client’s rationale:

Clean-tech groups seek to reduce reliance on high energy consumption methods of water treatment. Chemical engineers seek to have new tools for transformation of molecules and compounds.

Aquaculture client’s rationale:

Facilities that grow aquatic animals as food, or for display, wish to: increase water quality, increase average longevity of individual animals, and reduce frequency of maintenance on filters.

Mining client’s rationale:

Campsite/township lime scale management. Mining engineers also have problems with minerals blocking large diameter pipes, reducing flow, blocking fine nozzles, preventing drum or spray function. Hydrosmart can also be used to improve profitability through mineral dissolution at the point of extraction, such as during grinding or leaching.
