Strategic Direction
Provide new membrane aided pathways in the
manufacture of bio fuels / bio chemicals / bio
plastics
 Redirect chemical waste streams from incineration
to rectification and reuse
 Recover highly contaminated wastewater to
drinking water quality
 Create a win/win for business & the environment
