Centrisys/CNP, a North American manufacturer of decanter and thickening centrifuges and dewatering systems, announced that Madhavi Batchu has been promoted to Chief Operating Officer.
She is a 17-year veteran of the wastewater industry and joined Centrisys/CNP in 2014, establishing the company’s Applications Engineering department.
“I am thrilled to have Madhavi as part of our leadership team and excited to be working with her to keep Centrisys/CNP positioned as a leader in this competitive and diverse marketplace,” said Michael Kopper, president and chief executive officer. “Her industry knowledge is second-to-none, and our team members and customers will benefit from her leadership and extensive experience.”
Madhavi earned a bachelor’s degree in civil engineering from Osmania University in India and a master’s degree in environmental engineering from Cleveland State University in Cleveland, Ohio. In her new role as Chief Operating Officer, she is responsible for the overall operations of Centrisys/CNP. She works directly with Chief Executive Officer and president Michael Kopper, Vice President of Product Development George Kueppers, Chief Financial Officer Gary Stinson, and other internal teams to develop and implement the strategic vision and values of the Centrisys/CNP organization.
“I’m excited to take on this new role with Centrisys/CNP and look forward to working with our team and within the industry to develop innovative water and wastewater technologies for our industrial and municipal customers,” Madhavi said. “With limitless worldwide opportunities for our technologies, this is an exciting time to be a part of this organization.”
In early January 2022, Centrisys/CNP announced that its USA company leadership successfully reacquired complete ownership of the business following a joint venture which was formed in 2007 with Techcent, a Chinese company that broadened access to new markets in Asia and cost-effective manufacturing options.
