2S Water Sensor Demonstration$554Kvalue2025start2025end

2S Water is developing a sensor system to ensure safe drinking water. Our system will scan the output of water treatment facilities for 105 contaminants identified in federal water guidelines, and provide reports and near real-time data to operators on demand via web-enabled technologies, no matter what the operator’s skill level. Our service will be fully automated and only require annual maintenance. Over the first five years of deployment, the impact of launching this new technology will be the reduction of 13,334 tonnes of CO2e, 349,778,500 m3 of water, 19,265 tonnes of chemicals, and 211,
