VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 8, 2019 /CNW/ -- Industrial wastewater treatment provider Axine Water Technologies has signed a multi-year wastewater services agreement with a leading pharmaceutical manufacturer. Under the multi-year agreement, Axine will own, operate, service and maintain a wastewater treatment system at the customer's manufacturing facility in the Northeastern United States.
