OliQuell™ Bio-catalytic coagulant & modular wastewater treatment system.
A fully biodegradable, off-grid bio-catalytic coagulant operating in a 4-stage gravity-driven system — no electricity, no synthetic reagents, no toxic sludge. CE-marked under (EU) 2019/1009. Validated across four continents in industrial, agricultural, and humanitarian deployments.
Wastewater treatment today: expensive, polluting, inaccessible.
Industrial wastewater volumes are growing faster than treatment capacity, and every existing solution carries a structural compromise — either high capital cost, intensive power draw, toxic sludge generation, or infrastructure that is simply unfeasible in rural and emerging-market contexts. The category has been waiting for a single input that closes every gap.
Why current solutions fall short
Every dominant wastewater-treatment technology was developed for a single use case and a single cost envelope. Outside those bounds — at smaller scale, in rural areas, in agriculture, or in jurisdictions without grid power — they fail.
The result: most industrial wastewater is either undertreated, displaced, or generates secondary pollution in the form of chemical sludge that requires its own disposal pathway.
OliQuell™ is engineered to operate outside the constraint set that defines the existing category: no electricity, no synthetic reagents, no sludge byproduct, no infrastructure dependency.
One natural input. Four complementary mechanisms.
OliQuell™ combines five components in a single dispersible powder matrix, each engaged in a distinct physico-chemical mechanism: ion exchange, bio-adsorption, antimicrobial action, natural flocculation, and matrix stabilisation. The combination delivers what no single chemistry — synthetic or natural — has achieved alone.
Component 01
proprietary mineralStabilises pH across irrigation and fertigation loops; supports cation exchange for dissolved-metal capture. The pH-buffering action also enables the cationic polymer component to remain in its protonated, metal-binding form across the operating range.
Component 02
proprietary mineralSurface-active antimicrobial that suppresses bacterial and biofilm activity during retention. Critical for digester and bio-residue applications, where microbial methanogenesis is the source of the GHG and odour load.
Component 03
natural biopolymerA natural cationic biopolymer with high affinity for chromium, copper, lead, and other divalent and trivalent metal ions. Replaces synthetic polyacrylamide flocculants while delivering superior metal retention — without leaving a non-biodegradable polymer residue.
Component 04
plant-derived proteinPlant-derived cationic protein flocculant in a proprietary processed form. The processing route was selected specifically to resolve the supernatant-fouling observed with prior preparations during industrial-customer testing — and is now the production-grade input.
Component 05
natural polysaccharideStabilises the dispersible powder matrix and ensures uniform dose distribution during the aeration phase. Maintains formulation integrity through shipping, storage, and the gravity-flow stages of the modular system.
Proprietary formulation
The specific identity, ratios, and processing route of the five-component matrix are proprietary to Veos Pharmaceuticals. Full composition and CMC data are available under executed CDA to qualified partners, integrators, and regulatory reviewers.
A gravity-driven, four-stage system. No electricity required.
OliQuell™ is dosed into a compact, conical HDPE device that operates entirely on gravity and aeration. The system retrofits into existing wastewater plant flow, deploys as a standalone unit in agricultural settings, or operates as an off-grid module in humanitarian and emerging-market deployments.
Fill & Mix
Aeration in a conical HDPE funnel. Bubbles suspend solids and activate the OliQuell coagulant matrix.
Settle
Sedimentation by gravity. Solids settle out and are removed through the lower drain valve. No mechanical force required.
Decant
Clarified water is drawn from the upper outlet. Zero energy consumption at this stage. Standard for most use cases.
Carbon Polish (optional)
Final polish through an activated-carbon cartridge for residual clarity and trace removal where required.
Lab and field data. Quantified. Across multiple matrices.
OliQuell™ has been validated across diverse wastewater matrices — agricultural runoff, industrial effluent, organic systems, soils, digesters — with quantified outcomes on water quality, contaminant removal, greenhouse-gas mitigation, and soil chemistry.
| Parameter | Reduction / Effect | Matrix | Classification |
|---|---|---|---|
| Turbidity | −74% | Agricultural water & reuse | Water quality |
| Pesticides & heavy metals (Cr, Cu, Pb, Lindane) | −50% | Industrial effluent | Contaminant removal |
| Methane (CH₄) | −84% | Organic systems | GHG mitigation |
| Hydrogen sulphide (H₂S) | −81% | Soils · digesters · bio-residues | Odour & toxicity |
| Nitrogen fixation | +81.7% | Compost systems | Soil chemistry |
| CO₂ → O₂ conversion | +18.5% | Microbial respiration | Atmospheric impact |

Industrial, scientific, governmental — across four continents.
OliQuell™ has progressed from laboratory chemistry to live deployments across three distinct customer archetypes: a Japanese industrial wastewater operator, a Spanish public research institute, and an East African government pilot. Each engagement validates a different segment of the platform's commercial reach.
Taiho Kogyo Co., Ltd.
System deployment at Taiho Kogyo's wastewater treatment plant. Technical feedback from this industrial customer directly drove the current formulation — a processing-route refinement resolved prior supernatant fouling and is now the production-grade input.
IMDEA Madrid
Saline water pre-treatment for reuse: reduced membrane fouling and extended service life on desalination loops. Formal validation underway with the public research institute; peer-reviewed publication in preparation.
Government of Kenya
Field pilot for water and soil detoxification with regional replication potential. Establishes the precedent template for expansion across emerging markets via development-cooperation and multilateral channels — Africa and Latin America the prioritised geographies.
The only input combining every key dimension.
Across the dimensions that matter for industrial, agricultural, and humanitarian deployment, OliQuell™ is the only single-product input that satisfies all criteria — biodegradable, off-grid, broad contaminant removal, low CapEx, zero toxic sludge.
| Dimension | OliQuell™ | Chemical flocculants | Reverse osmosis | Activated carbon |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Biodegradable | ✓ | ✗ | — | ✗ |
| Off-grid (no power) | ✓ | ✓ | ✗ | ✓ |
| Removes heavy metals | ✓ | partial | ✓ | ✗ |

Three field-ready configurations — validated and replicable.
OliQuell™ deploys in three distinct configurations, each validated through a live engagement. The same bio-catalytic input and modular hardware serve industrial retrofits, agricultural closed-loop reuse, and off-grid humanitarian use without engineering modification.
Industrial Wastewater Treatment
Integration into existing industrial wastewater facilities. The modular 4-stage system retrofits into current plant flow, reducing sludge disposal cost and regulatory liability. Also configured for membrane pre-treatment in desalination loops.
Taiho Kogyo Co., Ltd. — Aichi, Japan
IMDEA — Madrid, Spain
Agricultural Water Reuse
On-farm treatment of greenhouse runoff and irrigation drainage water for closed-loop reuse. Enables zero-discharge irrigation and compliance with EU Directive 91/271/EEC. Anchor demand in Almería, Murcia, France, Italy.
Ferme Innovante Ghassan — France
Off-Grid & Humanitarian
Gravity-operated system for communities without centralised treatment infrastructure. Fully replicable modular unit, deployable via development cooperation, multilateral, or NGO channels. Africa and Latin America the priority geographies.
Government of Kenya field pilot
A $210B industrial wastewater market — growing 6–7% annually.
OliQuell™ enters a structurally underserved category. The dominant technologies have served their incumbent customers for decades but cannot extend to the agricultural, emerging-market, and circular-economy segments that now drive incremental demand.
B2B Industrial
Operators with wastewater plants — automotive, food & beverage, textile, chemical sectors. Anchor customer: Taiho Kogyo (Japan, automotive components).
B2B Agricultural
