Bacteria-based platform for carbon-negative water treatment

Lux Biotech is an industrial biotechnology company developing bacteria-based products for water treatment and pollution remediation.

Using organic waste effluents as bacterial feedstock, the company produces microbial solutions that replace chemicals in sewage and water treatment processes.

The approach is carbon-negative and designed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions associated with conventional treatment infrastructure.

Applications extend to agriculture. Lux Biotech has received Innovate UK grant funding and collaborates with Swansea University.
