Problem
Excessive nitrogen and phosphorus in water bodies leads to nutrient pollution, causing harmful algae blooms, fish kills, and overall degradation of aquatic ecosystems. Traditional methods of nutrient removal can be costly, require significant land area, and may not be easily implemented in both point-source and non-point source locations.
Solution
Sustainable Water Infrastructure Group (SWIG) provides innovative, engineered media and treatment systems designed for efficient nutrient removal from impaired waters. SWIG's patented Phosphorus Elimination System (PES) and Organic Nitrogen Elimination System (ONE) offer low-cost, small-footprint solutions for both public and private sector clients. These systems can be deployed independently or combined to remove nitrogen, phosphorus, suspended solids, metals, and fecal pathogens from various water sources, including wastewater treatment plants, stormwater runoff, and agricultural discharge. SWIG oversees all permits and construction, and can manage complete construction and operations performed by third parties to maintain quality control.
Target Audience
SWIG serves public entities such as water management districts, municipalities, and public utilities, as well as private entities including homeowner associations, agricultural operations, and private land uses that generate nutrient pollution.
