M2 Renewables has developed a unique wastewater treatment process where most of the solids are removed in the early steps. The amount of energy, land footprint, and cost are greatly reduced compared to traditional systems. These solids can be gasified and used as a renewable energy resource. We have been tasked to design and prototype a device to de-water the fresh solids to 50% water content, a targeted improvement of 46% in water removal compared to M2R’s existing de-watering configuration.
