We build NuTrees, which are compact ecosystems for various off-grid water applications.
In wastewater, treatment plants are “on-grid”. Off-grid means unique on-site treatment for each business, residence, or community. Unfortunately, on-grid treatment plants are crumbling in the face of urbanization. For off-grid, septic tanks are common but are ineffective and can cost $100,000 to install!
The result is widespread disease and ecological destruction. Billions of dollars are lost each year all across the US, but it is most acute in low-income communiities. This problem will only get worse with climate change looming.
Off-grid water solutions are necessary for a future where no one has to worry about dirty water. Enter the NuTree - a novel on-site wastewater treatment device. It empowers everyday people to treat their own water by harnessing nature’s methods.
NuLeaf leverages our interdisciplinary mixture of biotech and engineering skills to pave the way for a future where no one worries about dirty water.
