about avivid Global water
our team of industry experts
The Avivid leadership team has over 200 years of collective industry experience and has been instrumental in the successful launch and operation of more than 10 new businesses and a public offering.
Together, we can unlock the full potential of wastewater treatment and resource recovery.
Avivid Global Water is a one-stop water treatment company based in Boulder County, Colorado.
Avivid’s unique technology was recognized by the State of Colorado in 2015 when granted a $200,000 Advanced Industries Accelerator Award.
Several years in research and development have been required to develop the TurboCoag® electrocoagulation reactor, one of our key elements in our engineering suite.
After several iterations of R&D supported by field and lab testing, Avivid now has a mature product that is reliable, easy to maintain, and is ready to treat your wastewater.
Avivid has proven the performance of its electrocoagulation technology with on-site pilots in Colorado, West Virginia, and New Mexico, and is expecting to execute contracts with customers in oil & gas, cooling tower, landfill leachate, mining, construction site dewatering, and research sectors.
In 2013 and 2015, Avivid received US patents on its innovative and unique rotating anode system. The company also holds international patents in several potential market countries. The unique configuration of the system is readily identifiable for the enforcement of patent rights.
