ELEMENT15

In 2017, Element15 was founded by Ingmar Barendregt to reclaim valuable minerals and other components from urine. The main driver behind this idea is that urine contains phosphorus, which is a critical component in fertilizer. As the global phosphate resources are depleting rapidly, it would be very useful to start recycling urine and reclaiming phosphorus. The fifteenth element in the periodic table of elements is phosphorus, which is how Element15 got its name. Unfortunately, since current urine recycling technologies would lead to much higher costs than benefits, the idea was put on hold... Element15 is founded by Ingmar Barendregt, who has built the company since 2017. Over the years, Element15 has been performing extensive research and tests to progressively optimize the design and functionality of BAR. His background in Aerospace Engineering from the ETH Zürich has strongly helped him in this process... Optimize impact - Element15 aims to maximize the positive impact it makes..
