"We are honored to be recognized as a technology innovator and we contribute much of our success to our Utah partners and Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Lab," said Glen Southard, CSO of MIPSolutions. Southard went on to say, "We will continue to develop innovative and cost effective solutions for use in the mining, environmental remediation, potable water and waste water treatment markets utilizing our molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) technology."
MIPSolutions was recognized at the awards for their innovative MIP technology which has several advantages over traditional carbon filtration, burn-off, slag entrapment and ionic exchange resins. These methods of mitigating environmentally hazardous materials simply hide the problem. MIP technology on the other hand can selectively capture target molecules and contaminants and reduce them to pure raw materials that are fit for sale, reuse and/or recycling. These attributes provide MIP technology with a significant competitive advantage.
