Founder and president of Applied Engineering Technologies, Inc., Saad Ghalib said “It cuts costs, is operationally friendly and requires less space than traditional systems.” Dearborn, Michigan began using Ghalib’s sewer treatment system in late 2010 and according to State Rep. Gino Polidori, D-Dearborn, the system saved the City of Dearborn more than $150 million. 

Brooks Kushman patent attorneys, John Nemazi and Mark Stuenkel helped Ghalib file patents for the sewer treatment system in the U.S. and overseas.
