December 16, 2011, Calgary, Alta – In the first ever Dairy Herd Innovation Awards, Livestock Water Recycling, Inc. (LWR) earned a place in the top 10 for its manure treatment system.

The LWR system takes effluent directly from the barn and flows it through a system where solids are sequentially removed. The system treats and processes the manure resulting in clean potable water, dry solids and concentrated liquid nutrients.

The Top 10 award was presented at the World Dairy Expo, which took place October 4 to 8, 2011, in Madison, Wisc. The LWR system also won the World Ag Expo Top 10 Award and the Emerald Award in 2010.

LWR is currently installing a new system at a dairy operation near Chilliwack, B.C.
