Ferrate Solutions, Inc.

Ferrate Solutions, Inc. (FSI) is an early-stage technology company developing a new water purification technology, potassium ferrate (ferrate). The company addresses the growing challenges faced by water and wastewater treatment facilities everywhere: expensive treatment upgrades, new regulations and difficult-to-treat contaminants, and toxic byproducts resulting from conventional chlorine treatment.

Ferrate is an iron-based chemical that in one step can kill bacteria and viruses, treat organic contaminants, and remove toxic, suspended metals. Ferrate is more effective than chlorine in treating new contaminants, without generating harmful byproducts. Ferrate's unique capabilities in water treatment are widely recognized by the scientific community. However, it is not available commercially due to traditionally high costs of production. FSI's proprietary technology enables the economical production of ferrate in scalable quantities.

FSI is developing the ferrate technology in strategic partnership with Battelle Memorial Institute, a world-renowned technology innovator conducting $3 billion in annual research and development.
