MEET THE TEAM REIMAGINING WATER STEWARDSHIP
About Us
Our proprietary forward osmosis membrane solutions efficiently remove water and retain only the most valuable components of products for a variety of industries including coffee, beer, juice and others.
Porifera was established in 2009 in response to a Department of Defense DARPA challenge to develop a low-energy, easily transportable water purification system. Our team of PhDs created a membrane with better selectivity and 3x more throughput than any other product on the market. We continue to work in partnership with several agencies to develop award-winning processes for product concentration, waste minimization and water reuse.
We manufacture our membranes, membrane modules and membrane systems in California. Learn more about our capabilities.
