Goodyear has opened a new groundwater treatment facility that uses a new, more efficient technology from California company Microvi. The facility lowers the amount of nitrates from the groundwater, which are a contaminant caused by agricultural runoff.
The facility, which cost $3.7 million to construct, is located at 1761 N. Palo Verde Drive in Goodyear.
The new Goodyear facility is the first of its kind in Arizona, with Microvi’s new technology losing less water during nitrate removal than more common methods.
