The name 'Önundr,' with its Norse origins, is commonly interpreted to mean "victory of the ancestors." Some sources propose that Windermere might have been referred to as 'Onundr' for a certain period, possibly in honour of the Norse King. Our origins are intricately linked with the picturesque Windermere in the Lake District, and this meaningful association is the inspiration behind our company name, 'Onunda.'

Onunda has partnered with Newcastle University, a globally recognised and ranked institution based in the North East. We are working with Newcastle University to develop Onunda’s HTC design elements in support of the pilot project for our robust technology solution. The University conducted a Feasibility Study on the suitability of the design, with findings confirming the technology’s merit. Learn more about our strategic partnerships: https://loom.ly/icGz9pE

The UK Bioresources Strategy is an initiative aimed at developing a comprehensive and sustainable framework for managing bioresources, specifically focusing on the solids extracted from wastewater treatment, known as biosolids. This strategy is driven by the need to address environmental impacts, regulatory requirements, and sustainability goals such as achieving Net Zero Carbon and supporting the circular economy.

Onunda has developed a unique integrated method of treating sewage and sludge by combining hydrothermal technology and gasification. The application of high temperature and pressure breaks down organic material into its constituents, recovering valuable nutrients and eliminating harmful chemicals and pathogens in the process. This is combined with sludge dewatering technologies to produce an energy-rich hydrochar which is subsequently converted into clean energy using our proven gasification technology.

The use of sludge, a byproduct of wastewater treatment processes, in agriculture poses significant risks to both human health and the environment. There is a pressing need for a sustainable alternative. Onunda’s technology uses hydrothermal carbonization, which utilises waste heat and autogenous pressure to convert sewage and other organic wastes into their constituent elements: carbon-rich hydrochar and nutrient-rich liquor. This nutrient-rich residue can then be used as an agricultural fertiliser in place of sludge. Find out more: https://lnkd.in/eqSNmMyS
