Other Information: Founded in 2009, The RenixUIX™ platform evolved from research on the use of steady-state processing for soy protein recovery at Western University's Faculty of Chemical & Biochemical Engineering. Renix President & Founder Christine Haas was attracted to the technology’s potential to transform critical industrial processes while also advancing the industry’s business and sustainability goals. Given the widespread use of liquid separation & purification, the technology presented an opportunity for significant impact in multiple processing industries. Gathering a team of dedicated engineers and scientists, Haas led Renix through early investment rounds and brought the early-stage concept through platform development, testing and four scale-up stages. The team also built customer and partner relationships in agri-business, mining and industrial water management, testing the platform in multiple applications.
