Decarbonizing wastewater with advanced particle filtration

Offentlig prosjektsammendrag

Renasys, a Norwegian Start-Up, seeks to accelerate the decarbonization of the wastewater sector. Founded in October 2020 by a team of serial entrepreneurs, along with strategic partner who is the world leader in advanced metal wire weaving, we have developed advanced fine particle filtration solutions to capture and repurpose wastewater effluence and emissions. The Renasys Solution supercharges existing plant infrastructure by taking out up to 99% of particles above 5 microns early in the treatment process while increasing overall processing capacity. This provides our municipal customers with a solution that is cheaper, better, and faster to implement. While changes in the Norwegian wastewater regulations are expected to increase significantly, the Renasys Solution could play a critical role within carbon harvesting, accelerating the wastewater industry towards becoming Net-Zero energy consumers with climate neutral operations going above and beyond environmental regulations. Our Skattefunn project, is based on a 2-year stealth-mode technology development program which successfully raised our customer’s facility to be compliant per wastewater regulations for the first time since 2013. The project will enable the municipality to avoid costly facility expansions which will save local residents significant fee increases while reducing energy demand, chemical use, footprint, as well as sludge treatment costs by +50%. These efforts are the first steps towards a common MISSION ZERO focusing on: ZERO Discharge (Go above and beyond regulatory compliance eliminating wastewater discharge altogether); ZERO Waste (Harvest and valorize 100% of the renewable carbon resources into energy, fertilizers, and soil conditioners.); & ZERO Energy (Decarbonize the wastewater sector into net zero energy consumers, potentially even net renewable producers).
