Energy. Energy is measured by the ability to do work. We design energy projects based on the ability to do sustainable work measured against the Triple Bottom Line.
Accelerating innovations in materials science, digital technologies, 3-D printing, and economies of scale are delivering on the promise for clean, safe energy and energy efficiency solutions. In addition to our Anaerobic Digester energy projects (see Soil), VITAL deploys best-in-class energy efficiency solutions for SmartBuildings & SmartCampuses, plus innovative hydrogen teams to form a collaborative network of next generation solutions. The problem remains access. VITAL accelerates energy projects by working with partnerships for UN SDG-7 and SEforALL. We are committed to maximizing the goals for universal access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all. |
Water. Water is life. 75% of the earth's surface is covered in water. Our bodies are composed of 60% water. Plants also rely on water to grow. Through photosynthesis, plants provide the oxygen we breathe and the food we eat. They also help purify the water we drink, sequester carbon from the atmosphere and provide habitat for wildlife. Our ecological health hangs in the balance of healthy water.
VITAL's water revitalization solutions remove dissolved solids from water using breakthrough clean technology, requiring very low energy inputs. In addition VITAL integrates patented innovative de-watering technologies, utilizing food-grade additives and low energy inputs for comprehensive water solutions targeting contaminated lakes and watersheds, as well as industrial de-watering and process water clean-up projects. |
Soil. Soil is the foundation of civilization. Communities settled and thrived based on their ability to nurture healthy soils. Long before exotic foods were traded around the globe, soil was steadily nurtured for successful harvests, year after year. Part of our team DNA includes the Irish soil heritage where buckets of kelp were hand-carried up to fields from the seashore to build up soils on rocky outcrops.
Soils are living ecosystems structured as a composite of minerals and microbes. Soil is friable and pliable when healthy, host to living networks that sequester carbon for thousands of years, providing nutrients to plants and trees released over time. VITAL integrates Anaerobic Digestion and pyrolysis to transform organic waste and woody feedstocks into energy offtakes, plus soil amendments like compost, compost teas and Biochar to improve soil health. No incineration. No ash. |
