AlgaFilm Closes Seed Round To Accelerate Commercialization Of Its Cost-Effective, Carbon Neutral Biological Treatment Technology

AlgaFilm Technologies, developers of algae-based wastewater treatment solutions for the most economical nutrient removal and recovery technology, today announced the successful close of its seed financing. The round was led by Azolla Ventures and Burnt Island Ventures, with participation from E8 Angels. 

From Single-Target Tests To Real-Time Multipathogen Surveillance For Safer Water

Waterborne pathogens remain a major threat to public health, but many current monitoring methods are too slow or too narrowly focused to provide rapid warning of emerging biological risks. A new perspective published in Biocontaminant outlines how integrated biosensing systems could move aquatic pathogen surveillance from periodic single-target testing toward rapid, online monitoring of multiple pathogens at once.

Texas Data Center Water Infrastructure Takes Center Stage As State Scrutiny Intensifies

As Texas grapples with the rapidly evolving water and infrastructure requirements associated with AI-scale data centers, industry leaders from across the water, energy and data center sectors will gather in Dallas on October 6–7 for the AI Data Center Water Infrastructure Congress.

Lower Murray River At Risk As Climate Change Cuts River Flows

Recent strong flows in the Murray River may look like good news, but UTS researchers warn they mask a much deeper and long-running decline.

Tiny Carbon Particles May Carry Contaminants Through Water Treatment Filters

Activated carbon and biochar are widely studied for removing pollutants from water, but new research suggests that the materials doing the cleaning may also create an overlooked transport pathway for contaminants.
