Engineering Division Expansion to Meet Growing Water Room Demand
LOVES PARK, ILLINOIS, JUNE 27, 2022 – Today WaterSurplus announced an Engineering division expansion. As demand has grown for WaterSurplus’s ImpactRO – based turnkey water rooms so too has the need for additional engineering capacity. To date, four new team members have been added to the Engineering division. They are Jody Burgess, John Soutar, Scott Watkins, and Adem Dalipi.
“As more and more beverage companies like Mark Anthony Brewing turn to WaterSurplus to design and build custom water treatment facilities the need to expand our engineering capacity has grown,” said Steven Johnson, Vice President of Engineering at WaterSurplus. “We have worked hard to attract and maintain a very talented pool of industry experts, and these four individuals are further evidence of that.”
Jody Burgess – Manager of Applications Engineering
As Manager of Applications Engineering, Jody Burgess will manage the interface between prospective customers and the Engineering division to ensure thorough project specifications are developed and quoted.
