Via Separations

ACCELERATING THE RATE OF CLIMATE INNOVATION BY:

Lowering the embodied carbon of everyday products and materials by replacing thermal separations, a key process to separate substances based on boiling points, with an electrified filtration process.

PROBLEM FOCUS

Separating various chemicals is critical to manufacturing the products and materials we use every day including paper, plastics, and fuels. This heat-based process consumes about 10% of the world's energy and is the largest source of U.S. industrial emissions.

TECHNOLOGY SOLUTION

Via Separations is displacing thermal separation with electrified mechanical separation. Their mass manufacturable graphene oxide membrane can be finely tuned to replace low-to-moderate temperature separations, resulting in up to 90% energy savings and reduced operational costs. Via has successfully delivered a commercial scale FOAK system in their beachhead market and is scaling while developing new products for the chemicals and fuels markets.
