Xylem Invests in Moleaer to Expand Nanobubble Tech in Wastewater Treatment
Xylem Inc. has made a strategic investment in Moleaer, expanding the global use of Moleaer's patented nanobubble technology in wastewater treatment plants. The partnership aims to improve efficiency and sustainability in water and wastewater treatment.
Moleaer, with over 4,000 global installations, has partnered with Xylem for global distribution of its nanobubble technology. This follows successful projects, such as at the Maple Creek Wastewater Treatment Plant in Greer, South Carolina.
Nick Dyner, CEO of Moleaer, calls nanobubble technology 'established and disruptive'. At Maple Creek, it reduced chemical usage and improved efficiency without infrastructure changes. Xylem, seeing the potential, has strategically invested in Moleaer as part of the partnership.
Nanobubbles, microscopic in size, enhance gas transfer and chemical, physical, and biological processes in water treatment. This can reduce operating costs by lowering water, chemical, and energy usage, all without requiring infrastructure upgrades. Scott Holzborn, VP and GM at Xylem, sees this as a significant advance in wastewater treatment.
Xylem's investment in Moleaer expands the use of nanobubble technology in wastewater treatment. This technology promises improved efficiency and sustainability, reducing operating costs and chemical usage. With successful projects and industry backing, its global adoption is expected to grow.
