Oxymem
Did you ever consider how much energy goes into
treating our wastewater? Well the award-winning
UCD spinout company Oxymem did, and now
they have revolutionised the wastewater sector by
developing a cheaper more effi cient way of bringing
much needed oxygen to the bacteria that are used
to purify water. Their membrane aerated biofi lm
reactor (MABR) delivers oxygen directly to the bacteria
resulting in a 4 fold saving on energy costs.
