Techologies LLC has received $300,000 in Phase II
Enhancement funding for further development of its total
residual oxidant (TRO) sensor. The funds include $150,000
each from the U.S. Department of Defense and NAVSEA.
The work will be performed by Pronghorn at its location in
the Wyoming Technology Business Center in Laramie. In
development since 2005, the TRO sensor is designed for use
with advanced shipboard water disinfection systems.

Technologies LLC has received a $70,000 grant from the U.S.
Navy to research and develop a new generation of total
residual oxidant (TRO) sensors for use with advanced
shipboard desalination systems. The compact in-stream
detector will be capable of continuously detecting and
reporting residual oxidant levels in hypochlorite-enhanced
seawater streams, used to kill marine organisms. Laramie,
Wyoming–based Pronghorn is a spin-off from
ADA Technologies Inc. (ADA),
headquartered in Denver, CO.

The newest company to move to the Wyoming Technology
Business Center on the University of Wyoming campus has high
hopes for its water quality sensors, and the firm plans to
grow roots in Laramie.
Pronghorn Technologies, which formed in August, is a
collaboration between research scientists Kent Henry, recent
UW MBA grad Weston Welch and software engineer Jim Woods.
Welch met Henry's technology as part of a new ventures class
taught by professor Roland Kidwell. He then entered
his plan in the Wyoming $10K Entrepreneurship Competition,
taking second.
Henry developed the company's oxidant sensor technology
while working for Littleton, Colo.-based ADA Technologies,
and the two pitched their plan to ADA and received financial
backing to spin their idea off into its own entity that will
adapt the technology for commercial use.
"This is a completely Wyoming-based technology," Welch said. Both said they foresee fast growth, but
are committed to staying in Laramie.
"We're a Wyoming-based business that is
really here to stay and is founded and staffed by people that want to be here.
