Company Summary

Created by Harvard physicist Russell Seitz, Bright Water uses microbubble dispersions to limit solar absorption, reducing solar heating and evaporation at unprecedently low costs. These slow-rising reflective "hydosols" can last for hours and only modest pressures are needed to create such microbubbles, making their continuous regeneration highly affordable.
