China Seeks More Israeli Water-Testing Systems

From the Jerusalem Post:

The Chinese Environmental Ministry has urgently requested more water testing systems from the Israeli company Check-Light to determine if there was major water pollution caused by the earthquake which struck last week.

The company is scrambling to meet the order in time and says it will have the systems ready to ship by the end of the week.

China fears that chemical factories affected by the earthquake might be leaking harmful substances into the water system. They want the Israeli technology to determine if there was any pollution, and, if so, how far it extends.

China had already ordered and received 36 such systems, but decided to place an urgent request for more. The Israeli technology is one of the few in the world which can produce instant results.
