Wastewater treatment strategies for businesses could relieve stress on cities and dramatically improve recycling rates
CLEARWATER, Fla., March 07, 2024--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OriginClear, Inc. (OTC Other: OCLN), the Clean Water Innovation Hub™, today announces that Kevin Harrington, an original "shark" on the hit TV show Shark Tank and co-founding board member of the Entrepreneur’s Organization, has joined OriginClear’s board of advisors at www.originclear.com/about-us/advisor/kevin-harrington
Harrington will work with OriginClear to increase recycling rates in America by enlisting an "army of us" – America’s everyday investors – through crowdfunding to develop water independence programs for industry and agriculture.
"The more I learn about OriginClear’s mission, the more excited I get," said celebrity entrepreneur Kevin Harrington. "The OriginClear team has a unique approach to the water problem – it’s called local responsibility – and I’m honored to advise the team on how to get America involved in making the water revolution happen!"

"We have severe water shortages, and our water table is critically low in many places," said Riggs Eckelberry, OriginClear CEO. "And yet, we recycle less than one percent of the water we treat! Meanwhile, cities are overwhelmed and underfunded. The solution is to enable businesses to treat their water right where they use it – which gives them the unique ability to recycle right on the spot."
Eckelberry added, "I first met Kevin as an A-Team expert on his Boom America show. It wasn’t long before I recognized that Kevin is passionate and quick – he understood our approach right away. We are proud and excited that Kevin has joined the cause."
Harrington has helped produce well over $6 billion in global sales, the launch of more than 500 products, and the making of dozens of millionaires.
Kevin Harrington Enterprises is compensated with fees and options to purchase stock in OriginClear, Inc. and Water On Demand, Inc.
About OriginClear
Once a government monopoly, the business of treating and reusing sewage water is going private. Local industries and communities are now treating-in-place, enabling large-scale recycling while also responding to the challenge of water scarcity and climate change. OriginClear’s approach is dramatically simple: support that new trend and open the door to everyday investors. OriginClear’s Water On Demand subsidiary combines project financing, a veteran engineering company, and downsized "pod" technology, all to serve the new breed of treat-in-place commercial water recycling and treatment systems. This entity has entered into an agreement to merge with a Nasdaq "blank check" company. Get live weekly updates every Thursday by signing up at www.originclear.com/ceo.
