Floating Solutions for Clean Water

We turn sunlight into a weapon against invisible pollutants.

CLEAR BlueTech is developing a floating photocatalytic module that uses nothing but sunlight to break down the pharmaceuticals, pesticides and PFAS that conventional water treatment leaves behind.

The problem

Most water is never treated, and treatment does not remove what matters most.

Remote or non-electrified areas

0%of water treated

100%contaminated with pharmaceuticals, pesticides and PFAS

Wastewater treatment plants

56%of water treated

under 40%of micropollutants removed

How CLEAR works

A module that floats, and runs on daylight

Zero energy.

It works wherever sunlight reaches, with near-zero operating costs.

Floating, modular, plug and play.

It installs in five minutes, with no construction work and no infrastructure.

Complete degradation.

Micropollutants are degraded and mineralised, unlike membranes, activated carbon and advanced oxidation.

Regenerable materials.

CLEAR spheres regenerate easily, with minimal maintenance cost.

How the technology works

We have only just begun.

Research and proof of concept ran from 2022 to 2025 and the feasibility study is complete. Validation in a real environment is the work of 2026, and market entry is planned for 2028.
