The BiAqua solution is a bio-based technology that is able to create extreme low phosphate concentrations in water – one of the key strategies in tackling biological growth in water systems preemptively.
Uniquely, the BiAqua solution offers a singular approach to solving the world's water pollution challenges. It eradicates the primary causes of water pollution, from arsenic and biofouling to bacterial contamination.
The BiAqua solution is also able to extract hazardous metals and other harmful substances from water, even when present in extremely low quantities, resulting in pure water.
The most widespread application for this technology is in:
- The elimination of phosphate from water. Phosphate is food to bacteria such as Legionella, leading to bacterial contamination, and microorganisms including algae, leading to biofouling.
- The elimination of hazardous metals or carcinogens from water including arsenate or Bromade.
