A unique purification method of organic water-soluble substances from hydrophobic contaminants using nanosegregation in aqueous solutions.

Competitive advantage

  • the only medium used in purification is water, thus a cheap and harmless substance;
  • low price of instrumentation/technological equipment;
  • low operating costs;
  • processed (purified) volumes (weights) are not limited;
  • applicability in the area of very low concentrations of contaminants, i.e. the possibility of purification to very high degrees of purity;
  • no need for highly qualified staff.

Use of technology

  • in the food industry (purification of ethanol and solvents used for the extraction / preservation of products, e.g. glycerol);
  • in the chemical industry (purification of solvents or final products);
  • in the pharmaceutical industry or in research, where is a significant need for high-purity solvents for analyzes, need for standards, pure substances for experiments, syntheses, etc.
