News Release: Trojan Technologies Awarded Contract to Provide UV Water Disinfection Systems to the Regional Municipality Of

Trojan Technologies Inc. (TSX:TUV) has been awarded a contract, valued at over $700,000, to supply advanced ultraviolet (UV) drinking water disinfection equipment to the Regional Municipality of Niagara.

The Trojan systems will treat 40 million gallons (150,000 cubic metres) of water a day. By installing UV equipment, the plant will meet Ontario's stringent new disinfection standards for drinking water treatment without having to increase its use of chemicals. The five TrojanUVSwift units will be installed at the drinking water treatment facility in Niagara Falls in the fall of 2004. The plant serves a population of more than 80,000 people in the City and portions of the communities of Thorold and Niagara-on-the-Lake. In addition, some 14 million tourists visit Niagara Falls each year.

'Trojan was also the only supplier that could provide third-party validated equipment within our timelines.'said Chado Brcic, Director of the Water and Wastewater Division for the Regional Municipality. 'The small amount of space, or footprint, that Trojan's systems require was also a factor because of the property constraints at the facility.'

To achieve third-party validation, Trojan sent its systems to a qualified testing organization for disinfection performance testing. The systems were installed at a full-scale water treatment plant and challenged under actual operating conditions to verify the effectiveness and reliability of the equipment to meet disinfection targets.

'We were also impressed with Trojan's strong commitment to research and development, and the cost-effectiveness of its technology compared to other disinfection alternatives,'Brcic added.

'We are committed to providing our customers with increased confidence in the safety of their water supplies by installing Trojan's water treatment solutions.'stated Marvin DeVries, President and CEO of Trojan Technologies. 'Our growing installed base demonstrates that our strategy of providing our customers with strong service and support with third-party validated equipment is the right one.'

With over 3,500 municipal facilities in over 25 countries using its technology, Trojan has the largest installed base of UV systems in the world. Headquartered in London, Ontario, the company also has offices in the U.K., Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Spain, and the U.S. Its shares are listed on The Toronto Stock Exchange under the trading symbol TUV.
