Microvi and a prominent group of partners led by Caliskaner Water Technologies Inc. (CWT) will be demonstrating the increased performance and economic benefits of the application of innovative technologies including MNE Technology for advanced wastewater treatment. The Linda Water Resource Recovery Facility (WRRF), located in Linda, California, has been selected as the project site.
Read More“We’re big believers in the solutions Microvi develops to help communities deliver safe, clean drinking water, and seeing these results in Modesto validate our beliefs, ” said Kim Baker, Director of Innovation, Elemental Excelerator. “As climate challenges continue to impact the water supply, it’s critical that these technologies are adopted by the marketplace to ensure equitable access to drinking water everywhere.”
Read MoreIn collaboration with University of California Berkeley and Microvi, Nexilico will develop this comprehensive in silico solution, supported by rigorous experimental validation, to reliably identify and characterize microbial metabolism of drugs. The proposed methods will increase the reliability of predictions for clinical and commercial use.
Read MoreWessex Water has been operating Microvi’s demonstration plant at one of its treatment facilities in Southwest England since March 2021. The MNE process was initially tested for tertiary ammonia removal under winter conditions with successful results and will be tested for nitrate reduction over the coming summer months.
Read MoreThe Microvi MNE treatment system will allow the city to ensure a supply of clean drinking water in a region that has seen consistently high levels of nitrate in their water sources. Nitrate is one of the most widespread contaminants in groundwater globally, and its human health impacts are disproportionately felt in rural communities where groundwater contamination with agricultural runoff is pervasive.
Read MoreMicrovi is teaming up with Murraysmith + Quincy to deliver high-quality drinking water through its MicroNiche Engineering™ (MNE) solution to more communities in the United States. With contaminants such as ammonia, nitrate, perchlorate, chlorinated solvents, 1,4-dioxane, and many others threatening public health and environmental sustainability, engineers need to embed water treatment infrastructure with affordable and reliable purification technology.
Read MoreMicrovi and FLI Water (FLI) have formed an exclusive agreement to expand their partnership in the United Kingdom and Ireland. This strategic partnership will allow FLI and Microvi to offer end-to-end capabilities, providing turnkey solutions for both industrial and municipal wastewater projects.
Read MoreMicrovi and Oro Loma/Castro Valley Sanitary Districts (OLSD/CVSan) are pleased to announce the commissioning of the first dewatered filtrate (sidestream) treatment system in the Pacific Coast Region of the United States. This full-scale 12 million-gallons-per-day (MGD) plant utilizes Microvi’s MNE technology to reduce OLSD’s nitrogen discharge to the San Francisco Bay by up to 400,000 pounds (lbs) per year.
Read MoreThe results of work done under a National Institute of Health grant, demonstrated a significant potential cost savings in capital, operations and maintenance costs compared to conventional treatment technologies such as ion exchange and reduction-coagulation-filtration. The combination of efficacy and cost reduction has not been demonstrated with any technology on the market today.
Read MoreThe project combines Microvi’s MicroNiche Engineering (MNE) Platform with Nexilico’s machine learning and microbiome modeling platforms. The outcome of this combination will have the potential to predict optimal microorganisms for a given water treatment application, drive the development of more targeted solutions, and increase the reliability and success of how those solutions can be applied.
Read MoreWhile initial estimates predicted a 50% savings for operational costs compared to alternative treatment technologies, a recent data analysis found that a 75% cost savings has been demonstrated. The system has also proven a key advantage of Microvi’s sustainable biology approach where little or no biological waste has been produced over more than 48 months of operation.
Read MoreMicrovi announced a collaborative project with Severn Trent and Cranfield University focused on recovering nutrients from wastewater for reuse in agriculture and other industries. This advanced initiative is designed to help bridge the gap between nutrient recovery and sustainability in waste streams.
Read MoreThe City of Modesto and Elemental Excelerator partner with Microvi to demonstrate autonomous treatment system capabilities, providing clean water access for Central California communities.
Read MoreThis funding will specifically support Microvi in integrating specialized, high-throughput equipment to optimize material usage, reduce labor requirements, and promote liquid and chemical recycling—thereby contributing to Microvi’s accelerated global commercialization.
Read MoreMicrovi announced today that they were awarded a grant from the National Institute of Environmental Health Services (NIEHS) to develop a new technology for efficient, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) treatment.
Read MoreThe new trial will further develop and demonstrate the ability of Microvi’s wastewater technology to successfully intensify the activated sludge process.
Read MoreOperating between 5-22 degrees Celsius, MNE consistently removed ammonia from wastewater during continuous operation outperforming the ammonia removal rates of the existing nitrifying sand filters.
Read MoreThe in silico platform reduces the cost and timeframe of drug development by reducing the need for iterative pre-clinical experiments and better directing clinical trials, while increasing the effectiveness of the therapeutics themselves.
Read MoreMicrovi Biotech, Inc. announced today that they received the 2020 Institute of Water Scottish Region Innovation Award. In 2019 and 2020 Microvi successfully completed a series of large scale demonstrations of its MNE technology for removal of ammonia and BOD at Scottish Water’s Wastewater Development Centre located at Bo’ness Treatment Works.
Read MoreGiven 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.
