Membrion

Membrion has found the solution to clean and abundant water hiding at the bottom of a beef jerky package. They’ve found a way to transform those silica gel desiccant packs into high performance and ultra-low cost membranes that can lower the cost of water desalination. Membrion membranes enable up to 30% lower water purification costs when used in brackish water conditions common to agriculture and industrial processes. Since spinning out of the University of Washington in 2016, Membrion has raised nearly $10M to commercialize their new technology.
