Breakthrough in Energy Efficiency: BioLargo has significantly reduced the energy consumption of its Aqueous Electrostatic Concentrator (AEC) system by over 90% for large-scale PFAS treatment in drinking water.
Cost Savings and Efficiency: The AEC system is reported to provide up to 80% total-life cycle cost savings compared to traditional technologies, enhancing its economic viability due to its efficiency in collecting PFAS molecules and managing by-products.
Industry-Leading Performance: The AEC system achieves non-detect levels of PFAS removal (below 1 part per trillion) in both drinking water and brackish sources, establishing a strong competitive edge.
Comprehensive Economic Argument: The combination of reduced energy use, cost efficiency, and effective PFAS removal positions the AEC as a leading solution in the water treatment industry.
