Newater Technology and NW Blockchain Limited Announce Strategic Partnership Agreement

YANTAI, China, Jan. 17, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Newater Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ: NEWA) ("NEWA", or the "Company"), a developer and manufacturer of membrane filtration products and related hardware and engineered systems used in the treatment, recycling and discharge of wastewater, is pleased to announce its new strategic partnership with NW Blockchain Limited ("NWBL"), a blockchain developer focused upon environmental protection projects, to jointly develop blockchain applications to use in the wastewater treatment industry.

NWBL expects to utilize blockchain technology in the wastewater treatment industry to develop a new value-based exchange network. Blockchain is a digitized, decentralized, open, distributed ledger that can record transactions between two parties efficiently and in a verifiable and permanent way.

The partners will focus on building a traceable, transparent, and highly-secured platform for wastewater treatment opportunities and transactions. The partners expect to develop a blockchain token system that will be backed by the assets and the revenues from the wastewater treatment projects invested by NWBL and operated and managed by Newater. Investors will be able to purchase tokens from NWBL.

For each wastewater treatment project identified by both partners, NWBL will fund the project and purchase the wastewater treatment equipment from the Company. The Company will then manage and operate those projects. During the lifetime of the project, NWBL will pay the Company 20% of the project proceeds for managing and operating the project annually.

"Having a strategic partner like NWBL opens the doors for our company to access blockchain technology and allows us to potentially significantly increase the Company's revenue by engaging in larger projects that we believe are readily available in the growing China market."

"We believe the partnership with NWBL will add value to our shareholders because in addition to our traditional equipment sales business, the management fees expected to be generated from operating wastewater treatment plants will provide an additional revenue stream. We believe this strategic partnership will expedite our growth and strengthen our company's position as a leading disk tube reverse osmosis and disk tube nano-filtration manufacturer in China," commented Mr. Yuebiao Li, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer."
