Zenion Laboratories develops water purification technology designed to capture, remove, and destroy toxic chemicals and biological contaminants from various water sources. Their systems support closed-loop wastewater treatment and drinking water reclamation for municipal and industrial applications. This process yields a continuous supply of clean, potable water while preventing the return of contaminants to the environment.

Problem
Many existing water purification methods are either too expensive, ineffective at removing a broad range of contaminants, or require the use of additional chemicals that can be harmful. This results in limited access to safe and clean water sources for municipal, agricultural, industrial, and emergency response applications.
Solution
Zenion Laboratories provides advanced water purification units that remove and destroy a wide spectrum of contaminants, including pathogens, chemical warfare agents, heavy metals, VOCs, and forever chemicals like PFOS and PFOA. The company's proprietary media and photocatalytic process eliminate the need for additional chemicals such as chlorine or iodine. Zenion offers both a Municipal Water Purification Unit (MWPU) designed for city-scale water purification and a Mobile Water Purification Unit (MWP) for portable, on-demand water purification in remote or disaster-stricken areas. The MWPU supports closed-loop wastewater treatment and drinking water reclamation, while the MWP is designed for rugged portability and can be powered by solar energy.
Target Audience
Zenion's target audience includes municipalities seeking to improve water security, agricultural operations needing clean water for irrigation, industrial facilities requiring water purification for their processes, and emergency response teams needing portable water purification solutions.
