About us

BluAct Technologies is an award winning spin-off company of ETH Zurich, Switzerland, which has discovered new science revolutionizing the purification of water. BluAct Technologies is committed to implement its water purification technologies throughout the world to bring safe, efficiently purified water to all populations.

BluAct water filtration science builds on the remarkable ability of its proprietary compositions of food amyloid fibrils - such as those thermally processed from ordinary milk - and activated carbon, to attract and hold virtually all contaminants found in both potable water supplies and industrial wastewater. The media function by exhibiting strong adsorption to all contaminants, removing them from the water and holding them for disposal. The nature of the BluAct composition resists clogging and eliminates the need for flushing the media.

BluAct offers several technologies for water treatment which rely on combinations of food protein nanofibrils and activated carbon granules. These treatment processes use BluAct's newly uncovered science to remove extremely high ratios of undesirable and/or harmful contaminants. Researchers have long sought a method which efficiently removes all types of pollutants from water. BluAct now provides the right answer - an answer that outdoes and makes obsolete all past methods of purification of water.

BluAct's superior filtration products can be used effectively either as an integral step in the creation of potable water for human consumption, or as one step in the absolute elimination of undesirable polluting elements of wastewater. BluAct filtration renders all water, from any source, immediately potable and safe for human consumption.

The beauty and advantage of BluAct's totally fresh approach is two-fold:

1. BluAct granular media will remove virtually all toxins and contaminants, including all metals such as lead, mercury, arsenic, and even nuclear elements from drinking water - most of them with efficiencies far in excess of 99%.
2. BluAct granular and membrane media can also be used to recover valuable metals such as platinum, gold, silver, and copper, etc. from industrial wastewater.

Unlike the inefficiency, waste, and high energy requirements necessary for traditional methods of water filtration, BluAct's new technology pulls contaminants from water at astonishingly high ratios without wasting process water, and without affecting the beneficial mineral composition of water.. And the energy required to push water through the BluAct media is no higher than the normal system pressure of a typical municipal water supply. By comparison, it should be noted, the reverse osmosis water filtration method requires post-processed water mineral composition re-adjustment, expends great amounts of energy to force water through extremely fine membranes, and great percentages of water are wasted in use for flushing these membranes - resulting in the loss of otherwise usable precious water.
