Arvia Technology

What Arvia Technology does

Arvia Water Technologies Ltd (trading as Arvia Technology) is a UK-headquartered industrial wastewater treatment equipment company founded in 2007 and based in Runcorn, Cheshire. The company designs, manufactures, and supplies the Nyex™ family of treatment systems — Nyex Ellenox for COD reduction and colour removal, Nyex Rosalox for pharmaceutical and micropollutant removal, and the recently launched Nyex Florenox for PFAS destruction — built on a patented combination of adsorption using proprietary Nyex™ media and electrochemical oxidation that regenerates the adsorbent in-situ. The technology eliminates the chemical dosing, media replacement, and sludge handling associated with granular activated carbon (GAC) systems, requiring only 2-3% annual media top-up.

Arvia sells primarily through an enterprise field-sales model supported by technical sales engineers, free treatability trials, and a network of regional EPC partners in Italy, Spain, Portugal, UK/Ireland, Korea, and China, with direct offices in the UK, USA, and Shanghai. Customers are industrial enterprises in life sciences, agrochemicals, specialty chemicals, petrochemicals, electronics, and aquaculture, with named deployments at Anglian Water, Sinopec Jinling Petrochemical, and Zestron China. Revenue is generated through hardware sales of treatment systems, supplemented by managed-service plant hire, professional-services treatability trials, and commercial water testing.

The company is privately held (Arvia Water Technologies Ltd, registered in England and Wales), has raised approximately $16.5M across three disclosed funding rounds between 2012 and 2015 from Parkwalk Advisors, SI Capital Private Equity, MTI Ventures, and Earth Capital UK, and employs between 11 and 50 people. Arvia is positioned to benefit from tightening PFAS regulation and pharmaceutical PNEC discharge standards, with no disclosed AI/ML capabilities and differentiation resting on proprietary electrochemistry and process engineering rather than software.

Core offering

Arvia designs, manufactures, and supplies Nyex™ wastewater treatment systems that combine proprietary adsorbent media with in-situ electrochemical oxidation to remove persistent organic chemicals — including PFAS, APIs, pesticides, recalcitrant COD, colour and micropollutants — from industrial wastewater to trace levels. The portfolio comprises Nyex Ellenox (COD and colour), Nyex Rosalox (pharmaceutical and micropollutant removal), and Nyex Florenox (PFAS destruction), supported by treatability trials, plant hire, and commercial water testing services.

Product overview

Arvia Technology is a wastewater treatment technologies company that designs, manufactures, and supplies a portfolio of Nyex™ branded treatment systems for industries with persistent organic chemicals in their effluent. The product line consists of three core systems: Nyex Rosalox (general pharmaceutical and micropollutant removal), Nyex Ellenox (COD reduction and colour removal), and Nyex Florenox (PFAS destruction). All three products share a common patented technology combining adsorption using proprietary Nyex™ media with electrochemical oxidation, which regenerates the adsorbent in-situ, reducing energy consumption and eliminating the need for chemical dosing. The company also offers water testing services, wastewater plant hire, and treatability trials as associated services.
