    ZwitterCo is on a mission to solve the world's most urgent water challenges. 💧🌎 In our latest video, CEO Alex Rappaport discusses the critical role water plays in the industries driving the transition to a low-carbon economy. However, as we continue to deplete our conventional water resources, these industries face significant challenges in accessing the vast amounts of purified water they need at a low cost. That's where ZwitterCo's breakthrough membrane technologies come in. By leveraging the power of zwitterions, we have developed fouling-resistant membranes that enable the treatment of the most challenging water and wastewaters. Our membranes have the fastest and easiest cleaning of any membrane in history, allowing for long-term operation in environments that would quickly destroy traditional membranes. With the $58.4 million Series B funding we announced this week https://lnkd.in/e_KBQpNU , we'll be able to accelerate the development and deployment of our complete filtration solutions, empowering industry leaders to solve their water and wastewater challenges and build a future of water abundance. We're excited to work together with our customers, investors, and partners to ensure safe, clean, and affordable water for generations to come. Check out the full video below to learn more about the importance of water in industry and how ZwitterCo is revolutionizing water treatment. #ZwitterCo #WaterInnovation #Sustainability #Decarbonization #SeriesB

    A groundbreaking new paper published in the journal Nature Water underscores the immense potential of decentralized water treatment - an approach that ZwitterCo's advanced membrane technology is helping to maximize. The study, conducted by researchers at UC Berkeley, engineering firm @ Brown and Caldwell, and other institutions, found that distributed wastewater treatment and resource recovery systems can deliver water reuse, energy recovery, and nutrient recovery at dramatically higher rates and around half the cost of conventional centralized treatment plants. At ZwitterCo, while we weren’t involved in the study, we're seeing these benefits come to life every day. By equipping industrial facilities with cutting-edge membranes that seamlessly integrate into their existing treatment trains, we're enabling clients to: 💧 Recycle 90%+ of their process water, insulating their operations from water scarcity 💧 Cut disposal costs 💧 Unlock new revenue streams from waste As the paper's authors note, innovative approaches like ZwitterCo's will be increasingly vital as aging centralized infrastructure struggles to keep up with growing demands and water stress driven by climate change and population growth. We're excited to see academic validation of distributed treatment's potential, and even more excited to be empowering the industrial sector with the membrane technology to fully realize that potential today.

    Our CEO, Alex Rappaport, recently spoke with Tim McDonnell at SEMAFOR to discuss the power of advanced water treatment technology to transform industries. "Industrial water consumers have long worked under the assumption that the resource is essentially limitless and free, undermining any rationale for investing in conservation solutions. That is no longer tenable as record-breaking temperatures and drought become routine." ZwitterCo membranes are paving the way for a more efficient and water positive future.
