Advanced Wastewater Treatment Technology
There is an alarming contamination of surface and groundwater ecosystems with micropollutants such as antibiotics, pesticides, estrogens and pharmaceuticals.
The ETH spinoff Oxyle has developed novel wastewater treatment reactors capable of destroying over 90% of a wide variety of toxic micropollutants from wastewater, including highly persistent compounds that are resistant to existing treatments. In contrast to current technologies, the startup’s approach is highly efficient, cost competitive, uses clean energy sources, and imposes a low carbon footprint.
