Aquafortus: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

The cutting-edge water technology business Aquafortus Technologies Limited has created the ABXTM, a new non-thermal liquid to liquid crystallizer that converts wastewater brine to dry salt and clean water. In order to achieve zero liquid discharge (ZLD), almost all of the water in the wastewater must be recovered before the residual waste may be shovelled onto a truck for disposal. Government laws throughout the world that forced extremely polluting and water-intensive sectors to become ZLD or risk huge fines and eventually closure have caused the ZLD market to grow quickly.

About FundedIQ's Aquafortus Funding Data

FundedIQ tracks announced funding rounds and refreshes this profile every week. Round dates, stages and amounts are normalised to a single format, converted to US dollars, and de-duplicated: two records of the same round announced days apart are merged, and two genuinely different rounds are kept apart on the amounts they disclose. Amounts shown are the disclosed figures only — a round announced without a number is listed and excluded from the total rather than estimated.

Employee counts are reported bands, not exact headcounts. Founder and executive names carry the job title on record. Anything we do not hold for Aquafortus is left off this page rather than filled in.
