OpenCEL – Changing the Paradigm of Processing Wastewater

OpenCEL is an Environmental Biotechnology Company with a proprietary technology that significantly improves processing of wastewater biosolids. The OpenCEL – Focused Pulsed Technology applies high frequency electrical pulses to break open biosolid cell membranes, releasing soluble material that can more readily be reduced and converted to energy.

OpenCEL enables the use of biosolids as a resource to create or save energy. Use of the OpenCEL technology:

• Reduces biosolids requiring disposal by 40% - 50%
• Increases biogas generation by 60% - 75%
• Transforms biosolids to an effective carbon source for denitrification
• Improves the efficiency and effectiveness of biomass to energy conversion

OpenCEL’s proprietary technology accelerates the “reorganization” and subsequent biodegradation of organic and biological materials, thereby enabling the release and capture of stored energy locked up in these materials.
