We get a lot of questions about our thoughts on the EPA’s stance on PFAS. This announcement from the EPA was released on Monday and it should clear up the questions. We are excited that support from the federal government to remove PFAS from the water table is increasing.

Please visit the Discussion Board for an update on our progress. There is more room to share in the discussion.

We are thrilled to share that our project with the Town of Cary, NC, is up and running smoothly. Our initial data samples are in line with our expectations, and we are successfully extracting water directly from Lake Jordan while eliminating PFAS!

This project holds particular importance, as Cary is a recognized leader in water treatment processes and technologies. With our positive preliminary data validating our system’s effectiveness, we are poised for expansion throughout North Carolina and, in the near future, across the entire United States.

We will coming out of our “quiet period” next week to make some announcements, but we had the honor to present in front of the NC Legislature last week adn wanted to share a little more information about it.

Today we announced significant results for removing and destroying PFAS compounds from drinking water. A project at a Drinking Water in NC, has demonstrated IW’s system’s ability to eliminate all EPA-regulated PFAS compounds from the Drinking Water’s source.

IW’s innovative and low-cost solution is a single, highly efficient, cost effective, and easily deployed system. By not only removing the PFAS from the water, but also destroying it, this solution eliminates the need to manage additional hazardous waste streams common with other solutions and prevents their re-entry into the environment, providing a long-term solution to PFAS contamination.

“We are thrilled to share these groundbreaking results that were verified by an independent industrial laboratory, certified to provide PFAS analysis,” said Jason Taylor, COO at Invicta Water. “Our process resulted in undetectable levels in all of the PFAS compounds that were present in the water, that will be regulated by the EPA”.

2024 is progressing very well for us and as we get closer to the end of the year we will be announcing some new projects but here is a quick update on our current projects.

Project updates:

Pittsboro, NC: Drinking Water Pilot We are about 50% completed with the Pilot study and everything is working as expected.

Cary, NC: Drinking water Pilot We are assembling the system and expect to install it at the Drinking Water Plant in about 4 weeks.

Burlington, NC: Wastewater Plant We are completing the planning stages and expect to begin assembly in about 4-6 weeks.

There are a number of additional proposals that are outstanding in NC, SC, GA, TN, MA, VA and MD.

Other updates:

In Jan 2025 we will have a mobile system that we will use to do On-Site-Demos for potential customers. This system will be used in place of a Pilot System for many potential customers.

Invicta Water has launched a new web site. Please visit www.invictawater.com

You may have seen that yesterday the EPA announced limited on PFAS in drinking water. The EPA’s new PFAS limits highlight the urgency of removing these harmful “forever chemicals” from our water. Invicta Water Systems rises to the challenge with a groundbreaking solution.

Invicta’s technology uses a special process to destroy PFAS, unlike traditional methods that only filter them. This means cleaner water, lower costs, and less waste. We are proud to offer a low-cost and scalable solution that not only meets but exceeds regulatory standards. Invicta’s method is faster, cheaper, and more efficient than existing options. It requires less space and energy, making it a sustainable choice for communities everywhere.

We know of no other method that can destroy PFAS as efficiently and cost-effectively and we are excited that our technology will make safe water ubiquitous.

With the EPA’s new regulations and Invicta’s innovation, the future of clean drinking water looks brighter.

We want to share some incredible results from a on-going project!

Invicta Water was presented with the challenge to clean some highly contaminated water located on a former industrial site. The analysis of the retention ponds identified ~24,000 parts per trillion (in total) of multiple PFAS compounds. Untreated, this water is unsafe for human use or consumption.

The Invicta Water System was able to capture and destroy the PFAS, leaving clean water behind. The pre and post treatment analysis were performed to ASTM standards by an independent laboratory.

Read the Case Study to get more details!

The Burlington, NC town council took a significant step towards cleaner water last night! They approved a project plan to install an Invicta Water system, designed to remove and destroy harmful PFAS (“forever chemicals”) from the town’s wastewater.

Invicta Water’s technology stands out for its efficiency. It combines removal and destruction of PFAS in a single, easy-to-use system, minimizing waste and simplifying operation. This translates to a more streamlined and cost-effective approach to tackling this environmental concern.

The Pittsboro project (PFAS and DIOXANE) is getting more attention. Our solution was highlighted on a major NC news channel last night.

We are excited by the extra publicity and momentum.

We are excited to announce that the Town of Pittsboro (NC) has taken a significant step towards improving water quality by unanimously approving a small-scale implementation of Invicta Water’s PCD system, specifically targeting 1,4 dioxane, marking the first use of Invicta Water’s technology for this purpose. This project could lead to the installation of a full-scale system at the Pittsboro water treatment plant, ensuring cleaner, safer drinking water for the community. Quotation from the Town’s memo: “If the…new technology is effective against 1,4 dioxane in our real-world application, implementing said treatment at our water treatment plant’s total capacity of 2 MGD will cost significantly less than what we initially thought for the “Phase II” expansion for the Water Plant’s advanced treatment. This type of advanced treatment is also more sustainable, uses less energy than other solutions and does not require filter/media replacement or management of concentrated waste streams.”

Over the past few months, we have actively engaged municipalities, industry, and academia; introducing our groundbreaking water treatment systems. We have learned a lot from those engagements, particularly how our systems compare to existing technologies. Providing a better option to address PFAS and other emerging contaminants has generated a lot of excitement. This simple graphic (attached) enumerates the significant advantages of our systems.

We are excited to announce that Invicta Water’s first Partial Scale Implementation of PFAS technology is SET and SCHEDULED to begin installation in Q1 of 2024.

This implementation will be for approximately 500,000 gallons of water per day at a Wastewater Treatment facility in the Piedmont Triad Region of North Carolina. The Invicta Water system is engineered to remove and destroy PFAS from water at the facility to below the upcoming EPA PFAS regulations designated for Drinking Water.

More details to follow…

Are you ready for a Water Filter to remove PFAS at your home? This is the type of filter that we are all used to seeing in pitchers that filter our tap water.

We have made significant progress in the development of a PFAS Water Filter that can be used in our homes.

Our first working prototype is being tested as we speak!

There have been a lot of questions about developing a filter for consumer use that removes PFAS and we wanted to give you a bit of an update. There has been significant progress on this development in the last couple of weeks. These filters are the types that we use every day in pitches and water bottles.

Invicta Water is working with our partner TruSpin Nanomaterials Innovations to develop filter materials that can be used in PFAS Filters for consumers.

Robert from TruSpin took the time to describe how Invicta Water and TruSpin are working together to get this done.

Nano-magazine.com published an interesting article about “Filtering the Water of Tomorrow with Advanced Nanomaterials”, and they highlighted Invicta Water as a “most recent development”. We are excited to be turning some heads our way as news of our technology is proliferating!

Analyzing water samples for PFAS is complex and requires sophisticated equipment. We wanted to show you how this is done in one of the labs that we work with.

We had the pleasure to present at the Demo Day last week. If you did not get a chance to watch live, here is a recording of the presentation and the Q & A session.

The Invicta Water team is constantly working to improve our technology and our latest developments increase the rate that we destroy PFAS and this translates into lower costs. Invicta Water is committed to developing a product line that is as cost effective as it is efficient. We do not want to have any economic barriers hampering the implementation to our solution. The Invicta Water system will only cost Municipalities and Industry users a fraction of a penny per gallon of water.

Charlotte Angel Connection’s 151st interview was with Co-Founder of Invicta Water and BNNano.

During the conversation, Steve delves into the fascinating world of nanomaterials, sharing the challenges he faced during the company’s early stages and the strategic approach to expanding their customer base.

He sheds light on Invitca Water’s groundbreaking work in water purification, revealing how their nanomaterials can remove harmful substances from water sources thus addressing environmental concerns we now face.

Tune in to the Charlotte Angel Connection’s 151st interview with Steve Wilcenski.

We continue to make progress and improvements as we prepare for our first pilot install.

Check out this brief video of Invicta Water’s Crystal Photo Catalytic Destruction system in operation.

We had a chance to spend some time with Dr. Clar from Elon University and talk about how our Boron Nitride materials will capture and destroy PFAS. This is a short video of that conversation.

What does it cost to have water free from toxic PFAS chemicals, to be safe from the risks of the diseases they cause?

Using current technologies, the cost is very high, over $400 BILLION for the US alone, due to the large infrastructure requirements and the annual cost of hazardous waste transportation and destruction.

Invicta’s technology provides a modular and scalable solution with on-site destruction, minimizing infrastructure and eliminating hazardous waste transport - making the total cost of PFAS free water a small fraction of current technology.
