Dais Analytic Corporation, the United States, a commercial nanotechnology materials company selling its Aqualyte™ membrane nanomaterial with engineered processes addressing needs in the worldwide air, energy and water markets, today announced it is accepting orders for delivery of its first NanoClear™ product targeted to be used in the estimated $65 billion industrial wastewater cleanup market. NanoClear™ is a revolutionary water cleaning architecture enabled by the features in Dais’s nanomaterial – Aqualyte™.
NanoClear’s benefits include simpler plant engineering, lower initial and operating costs, safe separation of numerous contaminants from the dirty wastewater stream, and high quality product water (nearly 1000x clearer than today’s drinking water standard). Unlike most of today’s water cleaning operations using the Reverse Osmosis (“RO”) water cleaning method, NanoClear does not employ high pressure. This combined with another feature of the Aqualyte material offers the industry a true ‘low fouling’ membrane material. Fouling is a source of many RO system failures.
The NanoClear product shipped is the ME201 model, a modular device containing Aqualyte nanomaterial capable of separating approximately 26 gallons per hour of harmful contaminants found largely in industrial wastewater. The modules are available in sizes from 13-130 gallons per hour and can be grouped together as needed to clean millions of gallons of contaminated industrial wastewater per day. The clean wastewater can be reused by the industrial process lowering the processes’ draw on the local water supply, lowering the environmental impact and potentially the demand on a local wastewater treatment plant.
