January 29, 2025 15:09 ET | Source: Crown Electrokinetics Corp. LOS ANGELES, Jan. 29, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Crown Electrokinetics Corp. (NASDAQ: CRKN) ("Crown" or the "Company”), a leading provider of innovative technology infrastructure solutions that benefit communities and the environment, today announced that its Element 82 division has secured a key role in Pittsburgh Water’s lead pipe replacement initiative through its exclusive service partnership with Electro Scan Inc. Element 82 will deploy Electro Scan’s SWORDFISH technology to inspect all water service lines for 1,600 homes as part of Pittsburgh Water’s Neighborhood Lead Service Line Replacement program. SWORDFISH uses advanced electrical resistance testing to deliver unparalleled accuracy in identifying lead pipes, offering a solution that is both non-invasive and non-destructive. "This project reflects the growing recognition of Element 82’s ability to address one of the most pressing public health challenges of our time," David Kinsella, President, Element 82. "By leveraging Electro Scan’s SWORDFISH technology, we are setting new industry standards for accuracy, efficiency, and innovation in lead pipe detection. We are proud to play an important role in projects like these, which prioritize community health and environmental sustainability." Electrical resistance testing was recognized by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in December 2024 as the only commercially available solution capable of accurately identifying lead water pipes. Its ability to detect a range of materials, including lead, copper, galvanized, and plastic pipes, sets it apart from traditional methods that often miss key details. "Element 82 is at the forefront of transforming how we approach infrastructure challenges. As communities across the U.S. work to eliminate lead service lines, our technology and expertise position us as a trusted partner to deliver meaningful results," concluded Mr. Kinsella.
