Pollution of the world’s waterways has been an unfortunate side-effect of industrialization and technological advancement. While efforts are increasing to prevent and reverse this pollution, the latter has historically been very expensive and ineffective. Enter ecoSPEARS.
Through an exclusive license, ecoSPEARS uses revolutionary NASA developed technology to produce devices that effectively act as sponges for PCB’s, some of the most long-lasting and toxic industrial byproducts. Despite being banned in 1979, PCB’s remain in dangerous quantities throughout many bodies of water in the United States like the Hudson River. With an efficacy far beyond current remediation techniques, as well as drastically lower financial cost and negligible environmental impact, ecoSPEARS opens up the possibility of healing ecosystems and restoring land for human use that would otherwise be unsalveagable.
