Lemnion Green Solutions
Lemnion Green Solutions has been proudly providing biological systems for the treatment and reuse of wastewater since 2017. We provide solutions based on a proven toolkit configured for specific cases. This toolkit is based on principles of ecological restoration, phytoremediation, and bioremediation. Our team truly connects with our customers and provides the exceptional service they deserve.
Our biggest differentiator is the minimal use of additional energy for operations leading to a significant reduction in OPEX. Some of our solutions also offer an opportunity to harvest additional byproducts such as protein-rich biomass, which has the potential to provide an added revenue stream.
About Us
Our mission is to bestow beneficial services that integrate social and environmental solutions for water treatment and its up-cycling, animal feed, pisciculture, bio-energy, and other environmental advantages.
