Well Head:
Onsite water treatment and volume reduction:
Mobile units capable of producing clean water for reuse on-site, while also reducing the volume of high concentrated waste water by up to 80%, reducing transportation costs and disposal costs at offsite treatment facility or injection site.
Water Collection & Treatment Facilities:
Energy efficient means of evaporating water into the atmosphere to reduce waste hauling, or capturing the evaporate as clean water.
Capable of treating and evaporating high TDS water (inlet water up to 200,000 ppm.
Reject can be used as heavy brine fluid

R3MVC™ Technology
www.r3fusion.com
• A small boiler is used to preheat the vessel during start up. As the vessel heats, evaporation begins.
• Vapor Compression is a process whereby, the evaporate from the process is captured, re-pressurized, and then used to provide steam back to the vessel’s steam jacket to drive more evaporation.
• During compression, the temperature of the incoming evaporate actually increases while it is being pressurized, to create steam.
• As the steam loses its heat through thermal transfer, it goes through a phase change where it becomes distillate (product water) and is captured for reuse or discharge.

Concentrating Various Waters
www.r3fusion.com
Fresh, Brackish and Sea Water reach NaCl saturation at ~ 260,000 ppm
0 1,000 10,000 30,000 70,000 125,000 180,000 260,000 350,000
Oil & Gas Produced Water reaches NaCl saturation at ~ 350,000 to 400,000 ppm
There is a major difference between concentrating naturally occurringwater (fresh, brackish, or sea) versus concentrating produced water fromUpstream Oil & Gas production operations.
Produced water becomes enriched in ions through alteration of sedimentaryminerals. Produced water is usually very high in calcium and magnesium, andcan also contain barium and strontium. These ions cause serious scaling problemsduring treatment, unlike fresh water treatment.

R3 Fusion versus the competition
www.r3fusion.com
Conventional evaporators begin to scale and foul as their reject concentrationsreach 225,000 to 250,000 ppm causing severe operational issues. These units require shut down and cleaning on a regular basis to keep them operational and are often unable to concentrate produced water much above the 250,000 ppm concentration.
R3 Fusion has proven to operate well above our competitors, concentrating the produced water above 350,000 ppm without scaling, fouling, or cleaning. R3 Fusion’s R3EVAPTM was compared during a side by side test with a highly reputable evaporation company on produced water from the Marcellus Shale region. R3EVAPTM achieved consistent concentration of its reject above 350,000 ppm while operating free of scale or fouling for 12 months, while the competitor’s evaporator could only concentrate its reject to 225,000 ppm and suffering scaling, requiring it to be taken offline and cleaned every 2 weeks of operation.

R3 Fusion’s Competitive Advantage
www.r3fusion.com
R3 Fusion’s patented process enables its technology to efficiently evaporate and / or recovery fresh water from Produced Water, while concentrating the reject stream to greater than 350,000 ppm TDS without scaling or fouling.
R3 Fusion utilizes:• Thin wall construction with proprietary coating for its evaporation
surface• Thin film, vertical water flow• Proprietary water distribution system• Low Pressure Steam
allowing Customers to either reduce or recover high volumes of water while using less energy without high operating or maintenance costs.
Because the reject is concentrated close to saturation for Produced Water, the reject can also be used for 10 pound brine in lieu of disposal.

10 LB Brine
Completion Fluids
R3 Fusion’s evaporation technology is being tested to provide its customers saturated 10 pound brine by evaporating salt laden brackish water.
R3 Fusion’s technology has applications where two fluids have different boiling temperatures that allow for separation through evaporation.
R3 Fusion’s evaporation process, landfill’s can treat their leachate (waste water), utilizing the recovered methane gas from the landfill. This provides an effective treatment system, with minimal operating costs.
