ADI Systems Inc. is part of ADI Group, which began in 1945 and has grown since then
to become a world leader in providing a wide variety of solutions to the industrial marketplace—from wastewater treatment to water reuse.

Early Beginnings

ADI began research in the industrial wastewater treatment field by developing a unique form of anaerobic digestion technology. This early research led to the creation of the patented ADI-BVF® system, which is now the world’s leading low-rate industrial anaerobic treatment technology. Early success with the BVF® technology at potato processing plants in England and France led to further expansion in the USA and India, with several installations at dairies, corn processing, pharmaceutical plants, and molasses distilleries.  

Design-Build and Turnkey Systems

ADI’s first design-build project for an anaerobic-aerobic treatment system at Sara Lee has led to over fifty design-build and turnkey projects. Now our primary business model, design-build projects offer a number of benefits to our clients including a “one-stop shop” for a complete treatment solution, a single point of contact and responsibility, a single contract, and consistency in design and construction quality throughout the system.

Strategic Partnerships

Kubota Corporation licensed its world-leading aerobic membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology to ADI for the North American industrial market.  ADI’s global reach has also allowed us to execute MBR projects in a number of overseas markets, including the first Kubota MBR systems in South America and the Philippines.

ADI is the exclusive North American industrial provider of Kubota’s unique submerged anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AnMBR) technology. Our successful experience with this technology has positioned us as the world leader in its use.

The Future

ADI continues to be among the world’s leading suppliers of industrial wastewater treatment technologies in a rapidly changing global marketplace by:

• Adding and developing advanced treatment technologies
• Offering more solutions and greater value to our customers
• Expanding into new industries to offer clients the benefit of our knowledge, experience and treatment technologies
• Enlarging our geographic reach to provide wastewater treatment, renewable energy and water recycling solutions to industrial clients everywhere.
