and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.  Certain information
and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or

     The financial information presented reflects all adjustments, consisting

necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented.
The results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be
expected for the year.

6. Segment Information:

   Prior to January 1, 2000, the Company had two reportable segments: Activated
   Carbon and Engineered Systems. Each of these segments produced, designed and
   marketed products and services specifically developed for the purification,
   separation and concentration of liquids and gases and both sold to the same
   markets.

   The Company, as a result of a new strategy to transform the Company from a
   product to a service and solutions provider, has changed the structure of its
   internal organization in a manner that causes the composition of its
   reportable segments to change. As a result, the Company has four reportable
   segments: Activated Carbon, Service, Engineered Solutions and Consumer
   Health. These reportable segments are comprised of strategic business units
   which offer different products and services. The Company evaluates segment
   performance based primarily on economic profit (as defined by the Company)
   and operating income.

   The Activated Carbon segment manufactures granular activated carbon for use
   in applications to remove organic compounds from liquids, gases, water and
   air. The Service segment consists of reactivation of spent carbon and the
   leasing, monitoring and maintenance of mobile carbon adsorption equipment.
   The Engineered Solutions segment provides solutions to customer's air and
   water process problems through the design, fabrication and operation of
   systems that utilize a combination of the Company's enabling technologies:
   carbon adsorption, ultraviolet light and advanced ion exchange separation.
   The Consumer Health segment brings the Company's industrial purification
   technologies directly to the consumer in the form of products and services.

   The Company has restated the segment information for March 31, 1999, to
   conform to the 2000 presentation.

Item 2.  Management's Discussion and Analysis of Results of
- ------   --------------------------------------------------
         Operations and Financial Condition
         ----------------------------------

     This discussion should be read in connection with the information contained
in the Consolidated Financial Statements and Selected Notes to Financial
Statements.

Results of Operations
- ---------------------

     Consolidated net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2000 decreased
by $5.9 million or 8.2%.  (An analysis of sales by segment can be found in Note
6 of Selected Notes to Financial Statements.)  Sales to the activated carbon
segment decreased by $1.9 million or 5.5% versus the three-month period ended
March 31, 1999, primarily due to a combination of net losses due to foreign
exchange rate changes associated with the strengthening of the U.S. dollar
versus the Belgian franc and German deutche mark, partially offset by its
weakening compared to the Japanese yen, the deferral of several large orders to
the second quarter and losses associated with exiting of unprofitable business
areas.  Sales to the service segment were below the first quarter of 1999 by
$2.3 million or 9.3% due to losses associated with foreign exchange rate changes
in Europe, as stated previously, the non-recurring of activity at a major
customer and the non-repeat of emergency related sales of temporary systems that
occurred in 1999.  Revenues associated with the engineered solutions segment
declined by $1.7 million or 18.6% due to lower orders in Europe.  Sales to the
consumer health segment were down by $.1 million or 2.4% versus the comparable
period in 1999.  Overall the Company's sales decrease was the effect of net
losses associated with foreign exchange rate changes of $1.8 million and volume
losses.

Gross profit, before depreciation, as a percentage of net sales was 37.1% for
the three months ended March 31, 2000.  This compares to 36.4% for the three
months ended March 31, 1999.  This .7 percentage point improvement was primarily
the result of the implementation of cost reduction programs at the Company's
North American manufacturing facilities but also reflects the aforementioned
exiting of unprofitable business areas.

The depreciation and amortization decrease of $.7 million during the three
months ended March 31, 2000 versus the three months ended March 31, 1999 was
related to fourth quarter 1999 asset write-offs that were primarily included in
the restructuring charge.

Combined, selling, general and administrative expenses and research and
development expenses were flat.  This result was the net effect of cost
reduction actions taken in the fourth quarter of 1999, which were primarily
related to the restructuring, offset by costs associated with the establishment
of the Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania center of excellence, which is part of the
Company's new strategy, and management termination costs in Europe.

Interest expenses for the three month periods ended March 31, 2000 and March 31,
1999 were consistent.  This was the net of a reduced debt level and increased
interest rates.

The effective tax rate for the three month period ended March 31, 2000 was 36.1%
versus an effective tax rate of 36.0% for the similar period in 1999.

Financial Condition
- -------------------

 Working Capital and Liquidity
 -----------------------------

    Cash flows from operating activities were $13.2 million for the three months
ended March 31, 2000 versus $4.9 million for the comparable 1999 period.  The
$8.3 million improvement was primarily related to reduced investment in working
capital in the 2000 period versus an increase in the 1999 period.  The Company
intends to continue to reduce its investment in working capital by more
attention to monies owed by customers and more efficient usage of its enterprise
computer system.

Common stock dividends paid during the three month period ended March 31, 2000
represent $.05 per common share while the payment in the comparable 1999 period
represented $.08 per common share.

Total debt at March 31, 2000 was $75.5 million, a decrease, including exchange,
of $5.3 million from December 31, 1999.

The Company expects that cash from operating activities plus cash balances and
available external financing will be sufficient to meet its requirements.

The Company has a $125.0 million credit facility consisting of an $86.8 million
five-year revolving credit facility expiring in May 2004 and a $38.2 million
364-day revolving credit facility expiring in May 2000.  Included in this
facility is a letter of credit subfacility which may not exceed $30.0 million.
At March 31, 2000 there were no borrowings outstanding under the 364-day
revolving credit agreement which management is currently negotiating to extend.

Restructuring of Operations
- ---------------------------

     During the fourth quarter of 1999, the Company adopted a strategy aimed at
lowering costs to serve the activated carbon markets, investing to grow its
service and solutions businesses and repositioning its proven technologies to
bring more value to consumers.  In order to achieve these goals, the Company has
been reorganized as a globally integrated business with emphasis on becoming a
service business.

As part of this strategy, three activated carbon production lines will be shut
down and dismantled.  One of these lines is at the Feluy, Belgium location,
another is at Neville Island, Pennsylvania and the third is at the Company's Big
Sandy, Kentucky facility.  Associated with cessation of activated carbon
production activity at the Feluy plant will be the transfer of office activity
from its current location in Brussels, Belgium to the plant.  This will allow
formation of a center of excellence at Feluy for the growth of the service
business.  Operations at several other locations will be consolidated to gain
global productivity and centralized processes to promote corporate-wide sharing
of technical, operational and financial information.  Included in this
consolidation will be the transfer of production and administration activities
from Markham, Ontario, Canada and Lakeland, Florida to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
to form a center of excellence for engineered solutions.  With the exception of
asset write-offs, these restructuring charges will require cash outlays.  The
implementation was begun in December 1999 and is expected to be completed before
the end of the

                                     - 10 -
<PAGE>

third quarter of 2000 with minor contractual cash outlays being deferred through
the second quarter of 2001.  The number of employee separations from this
restructuring is expected to be at least 147.  These separations will occur
primarily at the locations impacted by the strategy and will be spread evenly
between plant personnel and administrative positions.  Additional hires will
result in a net staff reduction of at least 120 positions.  Separations through
March 31, 2000 were 55.

In the third quarter of 1998, the Company initiated a worldwide plan to reduce
costs and realign the organizational structure.  The implementation was begun in
September 1998 and is essentially completed.  Major contractual cash outlays
will be made in the second quarter of 2000 and others may continue during the
balance of the year.  With the exception of the asset write-offs, these
restructuring charges required cash outlays.  The number of planned employee
separations from this restructuring was 131.  All separations have been
completed and were in line with the plan.

The restructuring reserve activity for the three months ended March 31, 2000
was:

Capital Expenditures and Investments
- ------------------------------------

     Capital expenditures for property, plant and equipment totaled $1.3 million
for the three-month period ended March 31, 2000 compared to expenditures of $2.8
million for the same period in 1999.  The decrease was primarily due to the non-
repeating of expenditures associated with the recently implemented business
information system.  Total capital expenditures are currently expected to be
approximately $15.0 million for the year 2000.

The purchase of business expenditures for the period ended March 31, 1999,
represents the continuation of previously accrued cash expenditures for Advanced
Separation Technologies (a 1996 acquisition) project failures for projects
completed before the acquisition.

Year 2000
- ---------

     The Company encountered no unusual problems during the rollover to the Year
2000.  To date, no Year 2000-related problems have been encountered with third
parties.  Until all processes and systems are run in production for the first
time after the rollover and through the year, there is the potential for date-
related problems.  The Company plans to continue monitoring its processes and
systems to ensure dates and date-related information continue to be processed
correctly.

New Accounting Pronouncements
- -----------------------------

     In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities".  This new standard requires recognition of
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities at fair value.  This new
standard may result in additional volatility in both current period earnings and
other comprehensive income as a result of recording recognized and unrecognized
gains and losses resulting from changes in the fair value of derivative
instruments.  At adoption, this new standard requires a comprehensive review of
all outstanding derivative instruments to determine whether or not their use
meets the hedge accounting criteria.  It is possible that there will be
derivative instruments employed in our businesses that do not meet all of the
designated hedge criteria and they will be reflected in income on a mark-to-
market basis.  Based upon the strategies currently used by the Company and the
level of activity related to forward exchange contracts and commodity-based
derivative instruments in recent periods, the Company does not anticipate the
effect of adoption to have a material impact on either financial position or
results of operations.  The effective date of SFAS No. 133 was amended by SFAS
No. 137.  The Company plans to adopt the standard effective January 1, 2001, as
required.

                          PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
                          ---------------------------

Item 1. Legal Proceedings
- ------  -----------------

       On April 18, 2000, the Company and Trojan Technologies, Inc.
       (TSE/TUV)announced that they have reached a settlement of ongoing
       litigation in Canada and the U.S. with respect to products made and sold
       for UV disinfection of municipal wastewater.  Final closing of the
       settlement agreement is completed.

       The Company will continue to focus its efforts on the use of UV oxidation
       and disinfection technology for the treatment of water, but has agreed to
       cease the manufacture and sale of the AuroraTM UV disinfection system.
       Impact of the settlement and litigation costs incurred in this fiscal
       year will not be material to the financial statements.

       The agreement will allow both companies to focus on growing their
       respective businesses.  TSE/TUV and the Company are extremely pleased to
       have reached this agreement, which brings to conclusion  a costly and
       distracting litigation process.  The parties have agreed to terminate all
       litigation.

       Because the parties have agreed that the terms of the agreement are
       confidential, no further comment, beyond that contained in the press
       release, can be forthcoming from the parties.

       The effects of this settlement were not material to the financial
       conditions or operations of the Company.
