PASSIVE SOLUTIONS TO COMPLEX ISSUES

H2nanO creates passive, sunlight-driven technologies to treat hard-to-degrade contaminants, reduce emissions, and enhance natural evaporation. Our technology provides a high treatment strength without intensive energy or treatment infrastructure, harnessing nature to deliver clean water and reduce carbon footprint.

 
 

Our Technology

H2nanO's technology provides a reusable, catalyzed reaction to create treatment compounds from the water itself. These oxidants completely mineralize contaminants, leaving purified water without waste or by-products requiring further treatment. Our technology operates passively, without the need for chemical or energy inputs, lowering operating costs for treatment.

Passive Treatment

Sunlight-activated catalysts provide treatment without energy or chemical inputs.

Complete Degradation

No wastes or by-products to recover or dispose.

Simple Integration

Low complexity process design and integration into existing systems.


Our Processes

Mobile Laboratory

  • Validate and optimize treatment using customizable testing environments.

  • Small-footprint mobile design for onsite observation and analysis.

Modular Reactor Systems

  • Static or continuous treatment process with scalable reactor vessels.

  • Drop-in-place and combine with existing processes for pre/post-treatment.

In-Situ Systems

  • Integrate treatment directly onto existing or new lagoons and storage ponds.

  • Configure the treatment system to a desired surface coverage for oxidative water treatment, emissions control, and evaporation enhancement.


 

SolarPass is a passive advanced oxidation process that excels at destroying hard-to-degrade compounds. SolarPass harnesses sunlight to produce oxidants in-situ without energy and chemical inputs.

Target Contaminants

SolarPass acts as a self-regenerating adsorbant to concentrate and treat trace-level contaminants (ppm to ppt).

Powerful Oxidation, Simple Operation

Achieve stronger oxidative strength compared to conventional technology (ozone, peroxide, etc.)

Lower Treatment CapEx and OpEx

Remove the need for intensive treatment infrastructure. Low input and low waste volumes.

SolarPass Applications

  • Naphthenic Acids

  • BTEX

  • Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs)

  • 1,4-dioxane

  • Phenolics

  • Algal Toxins (cyanotoxins)

  • Ammonia

  • Reduced Sulfur Compounds

  • Manganese

  • Organometallics (organoselenium)

  • Pesticides

  • Pharmaceuticals


 

Stratus is a floating reactive barrier used to capture and treat volatile emissions from stored water to mitigate emissions release and reduce odor. Our process stops gas release and transforms compounds into less volatile forms.

Reduce Carbon Footprint

Eliminate methane and other VOCs, lowering GHG emissions by up to 80x from ponds or lagoons.

Improve Local Air Quality

Our Stratus technology can intercept and eliminate malodorous emissions (H₂S, VOCs, etc.).

Retrofit Existing Infrastructure

Our technology platform is easily adapted to any water body or container. Simple deployment and recovery in-situ.

Stratus Applications

 
  • BTEX

  • Volatile Organic Carbons (VOCs)

  • Methane

  • Reduced Sulfur Compounds (H₂S)

  • Ammonia

  • Volatile Fatty Acids (VFA’s)

  • General Odours

 

 

Oasis uses our buoyant treatment technology to enhance natural evaporation by providing efficient heating for water evaporation. Composed of floating sunlight absorbing beads, Oasis leverages capillary transport and photo-thermal properties to provide passive brine management and desalination capable of zero-liquid discharge.

Improved Solar Evaporation Efficiency

Oasis engineered materials concentrate solar heating to the water surface.

Increase Resource Recovery

Deploy Oasis in-situ to accelerate solar evaporation processes for improved recovery of lithium, potash, and more.

Reduce Evaporation Footprint

Achieve the same evaporation output with a reduced brine pond footprint.
