Project Flux

Project Flux

The Industrial laundry sector uses significant amounts of energy and water to wash everything from hotel linen to workwear. The UK industrial laundry industry puts over 4 million cubic metres of hot waste water to drain per annum. The Project Flux membrane technology shows that hot waste water can be cleaned and put back into the wash cycle saving energy, water and chemicals. The system uses durable ceramic membranes coated with alumina oxide. By recycling wastewater and putting the hot water back into the washing cycle, significant savings of gas and water have been demonstrated and quantified. Reduced gas and water usage also reduces carbon emission significantly. The patent-membrane filtration technology provides water recovery rate of up to 80% and energy cost savings of up to 50% due to the high membrane flux and continuous filtration capability.

Additionality in this project

Additionality represents a net environmental benefit and real mitigation of GHG emissions in excess of the baseline scenario. 


ISO 14064-2

  • ISO 14064-2 GHG emissions additionality. GHG emission mitigations are additional to the baseline scenario.

Statutory Additionality

  • Statutory additionality. The project implements actions that go beyond statutory requirements.

Technology

  • Technology, institutional, common practice additionality. The project implements climate actions that are subject to barriers to implementation or accelerates deployment of technology or activities.

Level 4b

  • Level 4b additionality

Sustainable Development Goals

Adopted by all United Nations Member States in 2015, provides a shared blueprint for peace and prosperity for people and the planet, now and into the future.


Clean Water and Sanitation 

Ensure availability and sustainable management of water and sanitation for all.


  • Our goal - Target 6.3 Improve water quality by reducing pollution, eliminating dumping and minimizing release of hazardous chemicals and materials, having the proportion of untreated wastewater and substantially increasing recycling and safe reuse globally. The Pure Pulse process specifically falls under indicator 6.3.1 as this process is a sustainable filter for purifying, recycling and saving water and removal of microplastics which are becoming more common and are found to be harmful to humans.

Affordable and Clean Energy

Ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy for all.


  • Our goal - Target 7.3 Double the global rate of improvement in energy efficiency The Pure Pulse technology allows end user savings via reduction in the cost of water, wastewater and gas. In turn, satisfying indicator 7.3.1.

Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure

Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation


  • Our goal - Target 9.4 Upgrade infrastructure and retrofit industries to make them sustainable, with increased resource-use efficiency and greater adoption of clean and environmentally sound technologies and industrial processes, with all countries taking action in accordance with their respective capabilities The Pure Pulse technology is sustainable membrane designed for industrial laundries allowing for recycling of water, energy savings and less use of detergent. This is of great importance as to date the UK industrial laundry sector uses significant amounts of energy and water to wash everything from hotel linen to workwear. The UK industrial laundry industry puts over 4 million cubic meters of hot wastewater to drain per annum. As outlined under indicator 9.4.1.
