KIRA
ActiveWe transform industrial wastewater into clean water for data centers: we enable critical infrastructure.
What it does
KIRA turns industrial wastewater from a liability into clean water and recovered minerals, so water never bottlenecks critical infrastructure. Our modular, software-defined treatment systems drop into mining, oil & gas, and data centers, where water is the #1 cited cause of $64B in stalled projects. Founded by MIT PhDs and hardware engineers who shipped their first commercial system in under three months vs. 2+ year industry timelines. KIRA is already at $900K in contracted ARR with LOIs across these industries.
