Clearas

Impact

Type

Thematic: Climate, Water

Description

CO2 absorption through algae in water treatment.

Rationale

CLEARAS has a solution that can significantly reduce excess nutrients in waste water and thereby creating an algal by-product that can be sold again. The CO2 absorption of the photosynthesis is significant (at millions of gallons a day per facility) and the market for water treatment facilities sizeable.
