About us

Gross-Wen Technologies uses its patented wastewater treatment technology, known as the revolving algal biofilm system (RAB), to cost-effectively recover nutrients such as nitrogen and phosphorus from wastewater. Compared to other treatment options, our system is significantly more affordable and produces algae biomass which can be sold as a slow release algal fertilizer or bioplastic.

    “The algae grown to remove the nitrogen could also become a source for future bio-aviation fuels,” said Worley. “Pacific Northwest National Laboratory has a biofuels program, taking algae and turning it into crude oil. The governor of Washington is very excited about Pasco being a source for this.” Excited to be part of this project, it is a circular economy at its finest. Let's fuel the future sustainably.

    We're excited to announce that Burnham RNG's groundbreaking collaboration with Pasco Public Works has been featured in Wastewater Digest! The article, "Pasco Public Works Sees Benefits Ahead From Wastewater Treatment Project With Burnham RNG," highlights our role in transforming Pasco's approach to wastewater treatment, focusing on sustainability and innovation. This partnership not only aims to reduce treatment and disposal costs for the community but also to improve environmental outcomes and reuse energy, water, and nutrients efficiently. "We were looking for companies that could be the designer, contractor, operator, maintainer, and financier. Both Pasco and Burnham were very interested in finding innovative solutions, and we had to do it in a way that brought our processors along the way," said Steve Worley, Public Works Director of the City of Pasco.

    Last week we had the privilege of hosting folks from the Ames Chamber of Commerce Leadership Program here at the GWT headquarters. They learned about our Revolving Algal Biofilm (RAB™) System and its pivotal role in mitigating nutrient levels in wastewater. It was an enriching experience exchanging ideas with local leaders and showcasing our commitment to environmental stewardship!
