ADVANCED NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS DESIGN AND CONSULTANCY
Anamad is working with several countries that are offered support from the British government to develop their water supply infrastructure. Including the valorisation of waste to treat polluted water and the physical treatment of drinking water to remove pesticides and organics, including bacteria and viruses. By finding technologies in their home countries we are accessing products that are built from the ground up by end users, often using clever, sustainable methods to solve problems that are felt all over the world.
Our Cold Plasma water treatment device can remove any organic chemical pollutants from water, including pesticides, herbicides, plasticisers, and “forever chemicals” – PFAS, by destroying them. Whilst decontaminating water from chemicals, plasma also sterilises it by making peroxides and ozone, imbuing the treated water with a short-term disinfecting property without adding any chemicals.
Cold plasma works by generating a plasma discharge in flowing water, like lightning in water; we add nothing else, so the technology requires no additional consumables or chemicals and has very low operating costs. Some versions can be run using “green energy” for free from solar panels.
Currently our device is in a development stage; it can remove PFOA, one of the PFAS raising the highest environmental and health concerns, with the efficiency of 30µg/l/min running at a flow rate of 600L/hour and an electricity cost of 25p/hour (dec ’24).
We are an SME in active R&D and have several collaborative international projects running, if you would like to collaborate with us in water, wastewater or industrial waste decontamination please get in touch.
