PLANET
End-to-end monitoring solutions for smart cities, allowing cities to control, remotely and continuously, their wastewater quality and protect public and environment health.
Challenges
Treated wastewater often still include high levels of degradable and non-degradable contamination due to limited ability to identify pollution within the sewage systems. Wastewater pollution level influences the ability to safely reclaim and reuse water. When discharged into oceans and rivers or in case of an overflow, polluted wastewater is a significant public health issue and a major threat to natural environments.
Investable Solution
Industrial sewage pollution increases the cost of sewage treatment, damages sewer systems and limits treatment efficiency ultimately driving a significant operating and capital expenses to municipalities and wastewater treatment operators.
Kando’s innovative wastewater management technology provides real-time pollution alert system and unlocks tangible value to water utility operators at the untapped market segment of sewage pollution detection. With a strong SAAS business model and track record in all major municipalities in Israel, the company is in a strong position to grow globally and gain significant market share.
Impact
Reduction of effluents toxicity and alleviation in aging of wastewater systems ultimately leading to a reduction in the adverse effect of urban wastewater pollution
