In this stream, Orianna Bretschger, founder and CEO of Aquacycl, discusses their Bioelectrochemical Treatment Technology (BETT). This innovative system uses microbial fuel cells to treat wastewater more efficiently across a range of industries. Crucially, it significantly lowers carbon emissions at every stage of the process.
BETT is modular, making it highly scalable, and it allows companies to retrofit the technology, offering a cost-effective way to meet ever stricter wastewater regulations. It can tackle a range of organic pollutants using carefully selected, locally sourced bacteria and can even clean water for reuse. Orianna discusses how the technology works, how it can help fight climate change, and Aquacycl’s future plans for the technology. #earthshotprize #wastewater
