The Global Infrastructure Challenge

  • is rapidly evolving toward decentralized and sustainable solutions, driven by increased urbanization, climate change challenges, aging infrastructure and regulatory demands for environmental stewardship.

    At AKYAS, we align with this vision by developing modular, scalable wastewater systems that integrate seamlessly into urban and rural infrastructure.

Half of the world’s population is not connected to sewer network

  • includes five key steps:
    1. Containment → 2. Emptying →
    3. Transportation → 4. Treatment →
    5. Disposal/Reuse

    At AKYAS, we simplify this entire chain by starting at the source — Step 1: Containment. Our approach focuses on separating liquids from fecal solids, especially in contexts with water-based body cleansing and wet toilet systems.

    By reducing liquid content early, we unlock major efficiencies across the rest of the process — making FSM more effective, scalable, and easier to manage both on-site and off-site.

AKYAS is at the forefront of advancing sustainable, decentralized water & wastewater solutions. Explore below to learn how we’re transforming wastewater management for communities and environments worldwide.

Simplicity and adaptability for wastewater management.

AKYAS simplifies wastewater management in two smart ways.

  • When waste streams from sanitation systems are mixed, it creates complex and expensive management. We cut complexity at the source by separating liquids from solids.

  • The myriads of non-standardized sanitation systems used across households and industries result in costly and often unreliable service chain. Our innovations are universal plug-ins —without replacing entire existing systems — and instantly elevate the onsite (waste-)water quality

AKYAS Impact Duo: Smart & Simple

AKYAS Impact Duo

The AKYAS Impact Duo includes the EDU and the NET Box. Each one comes with powerful technical features for the wastewater (& water) sector.

Together, they are even more powerful.

  • EDU = Effluent Diversion Unit. It separates liquids from solids to simply subsequent management.

  • NET = Nano-bubble Effluent Treatment. It produces super tiny bubbles to kill pathogens and break down masses.
