HARLEYSVILLE, Pa., July 17 PRNewswire-FirstCall — Raymond J. De Hont, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Met-Pro Corporation (NYSE: MPR), announced today that the Company's Duall business unit has received two orders to supply odor control systems to two municipal wastewater treatment facilities in the Northeast United States. The combined total of these orders is more than $550,000. Both orders are expected to ship in the fourth quarter of the Company's current fiscal year ending January 31, 2009.

"These orders demonstrate Duall's continuing strong presence in the municipal odor control market," said De Hont. "Not only do they reinforce Duall's reputation as a leader in this field, they also reinforce the growing demand for Met-Pro's solutions that help solve the challenges of protecting our environment while serving business and industry around the world. Together with a steady level of customer interest and quotation activity for similar type projects, they allow us to remain optimistic about our prospects for future orders of this type at Duall."

These orders are to supply Duall F Series low profile chemical scrubbers, Duall NH Series centrifugal exhaust fans, ducting, controls and instrumentation. The odor control systems will also utilize Series 5530 vertical dry pit recirculation pumps from the Company's Fybroc business unit. These systems, which are designed to remove odors emitted from the wastewater treatment process, will be manufactured in Duall's Owosso, Michigan facility.
