Filtering the unfilterable

We’re joining the Aquatech online session on notable innovations in industrial water treatment on September 21. The goal of the session will be to help answer the question: “Will the continued evolution of filtration technologies, including membranes, enable previously seen ‘unfilterable’ wastewaters to be filtered, reduce the efforts for treatment chemicals and energy significantly, and unlock water reuse applications?”

Membrane technology business accelerating growth plans

We have recently completed an equity funding round, attracting new and existing investors to back the business and accelerate growth. The capital will be used to pursue new opportunities and speed up product prototyping and industrial testing.
