Microvi MNE Enables Breakthrough for Low-Cost Water Reuse in Agriculture

Given constraints on freshwater in agricultural regions there is a drive to adopt sustainable water practices through water reuse. The fresh produce industry is one of the largest agricultural users of water with significant potential for water reuse. Microvi MNE leverages engineered biocatalysts to safely and rapidly reduce the levels of dissolved organic and inorganic compounds in wash water under very low temperatures, without contributing solids or secondary wastes to the wash water.

Large-scale Demonstration of Groundbreaking Wastewater Treatment Technology Shows Full Nitrogen Removal in less than Two Hours
Large-scale Demonstration of Groundbreaking Wastewater Treatment Technology Shows Full Nitrogen Removal in less than Two Hours

Installed in April 2018, results from the demonstration show that the combined nitrification-denitrification process can achieve effluent levels consistently below 3 mg/L and even as low as 1 mg/L TN from influent ammonia (NH3) concentrations as high as 45 mg/L. These results occur with a retention time of under two hours, and little to no biosolids are produced.
