The challenge
Surface waters, such as rivers, lakes, seas and oceans are becoming more and more biologically contaminated. Plastics and micro-plastics have been the protagonists of the discussion, putting biological pollution on the background. The United Nations defined this alarming phenomena it in the millennial goals (14.2) as one of the most serious threats affecting planet Earth. Expert solutions suggest pouring hydrogen peroxide apply mechanical oxidation or dredge everything from water environments to “cleanse” them…but these are all aggressive and invasive short-term remedies to the kill the illness. What are the 3 Initial Problems NAUTI tackles? 01.Hypoxia - NO Oxygen Areas 02.Harmful Algal Blooms 03.Loss of biodiversity - Critical DEAD ZONES!
The solution
We are building the only biological water cleaning vessel that uses different functional modules & data to enhance the inmune system of our waterbodies through natural rebalancing strategies. We are building not a remedy but the preventive cure to rebalance biologically contaminated waterbodies. Nauti is an Autonomous Surface Vehicle that restores imbalanced ecosystems with Bio-remedy PoCo (Pollution Control) Widely tested and proven biological Catalyst that enhances the activity of latent microorganism present in various layers of polluted waterbodies. It wakes them up, giving them a necessary boost to start decomposing bacteria, zooplankton, chemicals through natural reactions. With smaller projects in Venezuela, Paraguay, and Nicaragua we are building the technology to reach the desired scale and impact. In short we are building an Autonomous Surface Vehicle that 1. Cleans surface and deep level waters from biological contamination 2. Uses measurements and water parameters as the base for tech-developments 3. Contains modular action modules that help battle misbalanced waterbodies (e.g., rivers, aquifers, communal ponds, lagunes, etc.) Nauti is the starting point of a regenerative blue economy.
Mission
What is our mission: - Enable organizations and governments to restore and rebalance biologically polluted waterbodies through data-based clean-up strategies. - Enable the environment to naturally rebalance itself on the long term creating economic opportunities for the stakeholders involved in its cleaning.
