Innovia GEO is focused on decarbonizing how we heat and cool our buildings and homes by developing innovative renewable heating and cooling solutions. Our flagship GEOthermal Piles significantly cut the cost of implementing clean and efficient geothermal HVAC systems by integrating geothermal functionality into steel foundation piles, thereby enabling their dual use as both a foundation structure and a geothermal ground heat exchanger.

Chemicals & Advanced Materials

Industrial purification and separation processes account for 15% of the world energy consumption and 16% of the CO2 emissions. This is because we still use energy-intensive, century-old technologies. At Osmoses, we developed a clean solution to change this: molecular filters that can purify hydrogen, natural- and bio-gas, and can perform carbon capture at scale. We are committed to transform chemical separations and contribute to tackle climate change while generating value for our customers.

Osmoses is also the Carbon Sequestration/CCUS winner for 2021.

Princeton NuEnergy (PNE) is developing a novel lithium-ion battery recycling process to directly recover and regenerate used battery materials. Compared to current industrial battery recycling processes, PNE's process is simpler, more cost effective, and more environmentally friendly. With our process, critical battery materials such as the cathode and anode can be recycled, restored, and reused in new batteries, without the need to break the materials down into the raw elements.

STAC Technology invents and develops turbo-compression systems for use in large-scale cooling applications. Our patented system and novel compressors employ only water (R718) to simultaneously produce ice slurry and hot water. As a solution capable of retrofit into existing buildings, industrial processes or district heating and/or cooling networks, our system lowers energy consumption and emissions versus available solutions as well as eliminating the need to employ conventional refrigerants.

Energy Efficiency

High dilution lab exhaust fans run 24x7 to dilute potential contaminants in the lab exhaust air. However, lab exhaust air is clean 80%+ of the time. SmartStack® monitors the cleanliness of lab exhaust air and indexes the associated lab exhaust fans accordingly, driving significant savings. SmartStack® is one of the required technologies for all new high dilution lab exhaust fans in California per their Title 24 Energy Code. We recently patented another lab exhaust monitoring product.

We are developing a specialized industrial-scale reactor that uses light and a catalyst to break down PFAS, also known as “forever chemicals”. Available solutions merely filter out and concentrate PFAS and inevitably recontaminate the environment. We are developing a system that safely breaks down PFAS to non-toxic compounds, permanently solving the problem. We expect our solution to be scalable and energy-efficient, thus affording us a unique business model that aligns financial interests.
