BioLargo Water Collaborator Presented Peer-Reviewed Abstract on AOS Micropollutant Treatment Results at Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) International Conference


We have previously reported in press releases and other public disclosures about the special capabilities for BioLargo’s Advanced Oxidation System (AOS) clean water technology to eliminate micropollutants from water.

Recently, Yuhe He from the lab of Dr. Greg Goss at the University of Alberta presented his work on this topic at the Society of Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry (SETAC) North America Annual Meeting in Toronto, Ontario. The study he presented focused on demonstrating that the AOS is effective in reducing the toxicity of micropollutant-contaminated municipal wastewater. You can read more about his work below.

Micropollutants are widespread and persistent contaminants of significant concern to regulators due to environmental and human health concerns and are difficult to treat using conventional wastewater treatment technologies (such as UV and biological treatment). The fact that our AOS technology shows significant promise as a solution to address micropollutant contamination in municipal water creates a significant opportunity for BioLargo Water to solve a substantial and widespread market need.

BioLargo Water and its collaborators are also committed to disseminating their scientific findings (on the AOS or otherwise) at internationally recognized peer-reviewed scientific meetings such as this one, as part of our mission to advance the understanding and science of water treatment.

Assessment on the Environmental Safety of Advanced Oxidation Water Treatment System (AOS)

The Advanced Oxidation System (AOS) is a water treatment technology for bacterial disinfection and contamination remediation. The AOS can effectively remove bacterial and organic contaminants from water through the electrochemical manipulation of potassium iodide salt, electrolysis, and expanded graphite adsorption. Iodine acts as the primary disinfectant in the system. Evidence shows formation of additional iodinated and oxidative species, which may contribute to the disinfection and decontamination achieved by the AOS reactor. However, the formation of reactive oxygen species and potential secondary oxidative species may pose additional hazards to aquatic organism living in the receiving water affected by the post-treatment effluent. The effect of exposure to AOS treated waters, especially the long-term effect on aquatic ecosystem receptors (fish, invertebrates) is a commonly raised subject of concern, and thus requires further investigation to demonstrate both efficacy and safety of this process. To examine the long-term effects of AOS treated water, a 21-day chronic daphnia exposure, a 96-hour acute zebrafish embryo exposure, and a 14-day chronic rainbow trout exposure, were conducted, with treated and untreated municipal wastewater effluent (MWE) spiked with model organic contaminants, benzo[a]pyrene and 17β-estradiol. The results indicated AOS treatment significantly reduced the adverse effects caused by exposure to MWE and model organic contaminants to baseline levels in daphnia (reduced fecundity), zebrafish embryo (elevated EROD activity), and rainbow trout (elevated plasma vitellogenin). Overall, this study demonstrated that AOS treatment is a promising and environmentally friendly technology for wastewater treatment

BioLargo, Inc. Updates the Stock Day Podcast on Quarterly Growth, Commercialization, and Its Role in Solving the PFAS Crisis

Source: Newsfile Corp.



Phoenix, Arizona--(Newsfile Corp. - November 12, 2019) - The Stock Day Podcast welcomed BioLargo, Inc. (OTCQB: BLGO), an innovative technology developer and environmental engineering company driven by a mission to "make life better" by delivering robust, sustainable solutions for a broad range of industries and applications, with a focus on clean water, clean air, and advanced wound care. President & CEO BioLargo, Dennis P. Calvert, joined Stock Day host Jamie Fellows.
Fellows began the interview by asking Mr. Calvert for an update on BioLargo's revenue growth and balance sheet. Calvert explained that the company will be publishing their quarterly report in just a few days. "The revenues for the quarter will come in at just about $500,000, which is another record for the company."
Calvert then expanded on BioLargo's progress in improving its balance sheet. "Just a few months ago, we were able to restructure short-term debt into long-term debt," explained Calvert. "We were also able to pay off and retire about $1.2 million in what the industry refers to as variable-priced debt. That's a big deal," said Calvert. He further explained that the company has followed an aggressive investment strategy, which is now paying off. "All of the fruits of these investments are now panning out," said Calvert. "I think it's a very exciting time for the company."
Fellows asked Mr. Calvert about the EPA grant that BioLargo Engineering was recently awarded to help solve the growing issue of PFAS (per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances) contamination. Calvert explained that PFAS water contamination is a widespread problem because these chemicals are found in a vast number of household and industrial products and don't break down easily in nature. They are also linked to adverse health effects. "As a result, there is a big crisis," said Calvert. "People are finding that our groundwater is contaminated with PFAS," said Calvert.
Mr. Calvert then commented on the technology they developed as a result of the US EPA grant they were awarded. "We have proven claims that we're getting at least 99% reduction [from water] in a single pass," explained Calvert. "We're busy with patents, we're busy with scale-ups, and we're in discussion with major partnerships," said Calvert. "We've got the talent in-house to support this technology."
Mr. Calvert also answered questions about BioLargo's wound care subsidiary, Clyra Medical Technologies. "Clyra Medical just got its first FDA clearance, just a few weeks ago, for its first advanced wound care product," shared Calvert. "With that product, we can continue to focus on extraordinarily high-value assets," he continued. "Now what we're focused on is building that infrastructure, getting clinical [trials], and slowly entering the market," said Calvert.
Mr. Calvert closed the interview by saying, "We think the future for BioLargo is exceptionally exciting and it's a great time to take a look at this company."
