WWT was formed in July 2006 when founder Tom Worrell joined his investments in Living Machine® systems and other water purification technologies. This included moving the business and key personnel involved with Living Machine systems to a new office in Charlottesville, Virginia. A research laboratory was established in nearby Ruckersville, Virginia and new staff members in engineering, research and administration were brought together in the new organization. In October 2006, WWT acquired the HydroSecure™ technology and the intellectual property associated with it. By early 2007, over twenty professionals were working together to broaden the markets and applications for Living Machine systems and to continue developing proprietary technology for water purification and protection.
