Advanced Environmental Technologies, LLC (AET) has developed and patented an innovative bioelectrochemical (BEC) system for wastewater treatment, which is commercially known as E-Redox^®.  The E-Redox^® BEC system has demonstrated that this unique BEC system can treat wastewater at rates comparable to conventional aeration systems.  This demonstration conducted at a wastewater treatment plant yielded chemical oxygen demand (COD) degradation rates that were within 4% of the aerated wastewater treatment system, which can substantially reduce energy requirements since BEC systems require zero energy input.



AET has further improved and enhanced the performance of the E-Redox^® systems by integrating photocatalytic materials.  Photocatalytically-enhanced BEC (or PBEC) systems have been tested at small-scale by the E-Redox^® team, where the PBEC^TM system degraded and maintained COD at levels comparable or surpassing conventional aeration (activated sludge) system.
