CleanTech is bigger than you think…

While cleantech often conjures up images of wind turbines and solar panels, the term ‘cleantech’ actually considers all technology that lessens the environmental impact associated with energy production.

The aim of cleantech is to reduce the impact of energy production on air, land, and water, along with the associated ecosystems they support.

As a result, applications are broad, with examples in all of the conventional energy sectors. Examples of cleantech include advanced instrumentation for the detection of small releases of greenhouse gases, data science models for optimization of energy consumption in conventional energy plants, and microbiology that has been engineered to remove pollutants from water used during energy production.

Enabling these complex clean technology solutions requires a broad set of competencies, covering a range of pure and applied sciences. Coanda’s integrated offering includes advanced mathematics, fluid dynamics, chemical engineering, analytical chemistry, and microbiology.

Our long-running expertise in these disciplines has led to significant advances in the commercialization efforts of many cleantech innovators.
