ITALIAN INVESTMENT SHOWCASE Torino – 11 aprile 2018
1 2 3 PROBLEM CLEAN WATER is a limited resources for the planet. Some POLLUTANTS like heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, nickel, lead and mercury) are highly toxic and carcinogenic and constitute a very high risk for human health and the environment. 3 CONTROL of pollutants in the water is a global problem that requires continues analysis and measurements 26/11/2018
SOLUTION Our microdevices integrate the functions of a miniaturized laboratory (separations, component analysis, reactions, etc.) inside a chip equipped with a microprocessor. 26/11/2018
SOLUTION Our Microfluidic LOC (Lab on Chip) device allows to carry out precise measurements of heavy metals present in the water: in situations and uses for which it is difficult and sometimes impossible to use traditional instrumentation when the speed and simplicity in the measurement are a fundamental aspect 26/11/2018

THEY COULD BE COMPETITORS BUT ALSO CUSTOMERS!! Water analysis and monitoring instruments (I.E. EMERSON, HONEYWELL, ETC) water treatment CHEMICAL PRODUCTS (i.e. BASF, KEMIRA, ETC) water treatment technologies AND MANAGEMENT (i.e. GE water, VEOLIA, EVOQUA, XYLEM, ETC) these competitors STILL NOW HAVEN’T microdevices. THEY COULD BE COMPETITORS BUT ALSO CUSTOMERS!! 26/11/2018
