Periodic Reporting for period 1 - PeroxyPro (Secure, safe, sustainable and affordable on-site generation of Hydrogen Peroxide)
Reporting period: 2020-07-01 to 2021-06-30
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is one of the world’s most widely used chemicals – it is a powerful oxidant and disinfectant utilized across water and wastewater treatment (WWT); pulp, paper and textile; medical, cosmetics, and electronics industries. It is highly effective against a wide range of pathogens, including Coronaviruses1, as well as in facilitating the breakdown of human-generated pollutants While H2O2 itself is “green” – decomposing to pure water and oxygen following use – today’s production process and supply chain is far from it. The global annual output of over 6.5M Tons is produced in centralized chemical production plants, emitting greenhouse gasses (GHG) equivalent to the emissions of over 3M cars, and outputting over 60M Tons / annum of toxic waste. Delivery of H2O2 from these centralized production plants to millions of distributed points of use requires transportation of a high-concentrate, highly-explosive solution, break-down of large packaging to manageable units, and dilution from 30% - 70% solutions down to a few parts per million (ppm) - a complex, hazardous, costly, and increasingly regulated supply chain.
Our goal is to disrupt today’s H2O2 production process and supply chain with PeroxyPro – the world’s first and only commercial technology solution for the on-site generation of hydrogen peroxide through direct electrochemical synthesis. PeroxyPro will use only water, electricity and air as inputs, and will output a high-purity, safe H2O2 solution directly on site. PeroxyPro will secure consumable-free supply of a highly effective biocide and oxidizer in critical applications; will displace centralized, GHG and toxic-waste intensive production, with an eco-friendly, zero-emission and zero-waste, distributed generation process; and will replace a hazardous and costly supply chain with on-demand, safe generation directly at the point of use.

Throughout the first reporting period we have:
Tested and validated our technology solution in 2 pilot sites for the mitigation of water-borne pathogens, and successfully converted these pilot sites to paying customers
Tested and validated our technology solution in 3 pilots sites for chemical-input free UV/ peroxide Advanced Oxidation Processes (AOP), together with global water technology firms.
Scaled up our technology towards larger-scale applications in municipal and industrial water treatment.
Advanced towards design freeze and industrialization.
Secured our first patent.
