About KIRA
Summary
KIRA builds modular, on-site wastewater treatment systems for mining, oil and gas, and data center operators. Each containerized unit uses heat-pump-driven evaporation and condensation, with no chemicals, to convert high-TDS industrial wastewater into clean water and recoverable solids, arriving on a truck and running the same day. The product replaces custom treatment plants, chemical inventories, and multi-year procurement timelines.
Business model
Contracted recurring revenue per deployed system.
Go-to-market
Industrial operators in mining, oil and gas, and data centers are the buyers; systems are sold and deployed directly, with units shipped to site and commissioned on arrival.
