Company:
Beyond The Dome is building a containerized system that destroys contaminants in water in seconds. We help industries dealing with wastewater meet their climate commitments, generate power, and clean water. Our ultra-efficient supercritical water oxidation (ultra-SCWOTM) process destroys over 99.9% of organic contaminants within a few seconds, including PFAS, microplastics, and pharmaceuticals, and uses the energy contained within the waste to power the process. Our long‑term goal is to give people access to the best possible wastewater treatment by developing a global network of our ultra‑SCWOTM systems.
