ULTRON: Portable, Economical Water Treatment Solutions
The Technology
The Ultra-portable Three-stage Oxidative Nanofiltration (ULTRON) technology developed by the Hoffmann Group aims to provide sanitation and water purification solutions that are economical and energy-efficient. Based on proprietary methods (United States Patent Application 20180222781), this system uses easily-available materials and minimal energy inputs for a modular, scalable product.
The technology has been proven to deliver 5-log reduction of indicator bacteria, and testing for higher performance values is ongoing.
