DTS is a technology company focused on using its proprietary technologies in the water and waste water space. The company’s roots go back to R&D done by its two chief scientists, Dr. Matityahu (Mati) Fichman and Dr. Leonid (Len) Moldavsky. Both physicists have spent much of the last twenty-five years developing different methods to use electricity to treat waste effluent.
DTS has exclusive rights to several patents as well as know-how that stem from development work in the U.S., Israel, Japan and Europe. Although R&D is continuing, the company is at a stage ready for commercialization for several markets that have gone through intensive development.
DTS is a lever, an accelerator, a catalyst.
