Ostara named to Global Cleantech 100

Vancouver-Ostara Nutrient Recovery Technologies, which is showing the way to extract phosphorus and ammonia from wastewaters, has been named to the 2010 Global Cleantech 100 by the Cleantech Group, which highlights clean technology companies from around the world that are likely to make a significant market impact in the next decade. “We are very proud to be elected to the prestigious Global Cleantech 100,” said Phillip Abrary, Ostara’s president and CEO. “It is a testament to an amazing team at Ostara that has collectively transformed a promising technology into a viable business. Our technology is not only helping preserve a non-renewable resource by producing a fertilizer from a sustainable source, but is also providing a solution for wastewater treatment plants to recover otherwise polluting nutrients, and turn them into a valuable product, and further protect local waterways.”
