ABOUT US
A world-class team developing an electrogenic bioreactor with three value propositions. First, is remediating wastewater. Second is to generate direct current electricity by extracting electrons from the metabolism of the carbon compounds suspended in the wastewater (thus, reducing BOD/COD/VOD). The final primary value proposition is releasing economically important biogases. Our initial customers create industrial stick water. Early tests indicate a value-added proposition of odor reduction of stick water that will save customers a number of steps and costs at odor control prior to waste water release to municipal water treatment.
