This post is a part of the Early Stage Climate Startup series from Climafix 2024


Highlights

  • Eunoia’s unmanned surface vessels are designed to autonomously collect up to 1,000 liters of waste. With continuous pollution level tracking, providing actionable data.
  • Can operate up to 6 hours with a 5 km line-of-sight range.

1. Value Proposition

  • High Waste Collection Capacity: Capable of removing up to 1,000 liters of solid waste, including plastics and microplastics, with real-time monitoring integrated.

2. Pain Points

  • Labor Reduction: Automates waste collection, reducing labor needs and boosting efficiency while providing water quality data for informed pollution management.
  • Versatile Capacity: Expandable from 300 to 1,000 liters, enabling flexible waste management with a 6-hour runtime and 5 km range for efficient operation.

3. Climate Impact

  • Removes large quantities of plastic waste and other contaminants, helping to restore aquatic ecosystems.

4. Current & Future Target Segments

  • Current Target Segments: Municipal corporations, irrigation and water boards, tourism and resort operators, real estate developers, NGOs, and CSR-driven businesses.
  • Future  Target Segments: International markets and engagement in heavily polluted Indian water bodies.

5. USPs

  • High Capacity: Waste capacity of 300–1,000 liters, surpassing competitors like ClearBot and Jellyfish Bot.
  • Extended Operational Time: Up to 6 hours of autonomous and uninterrupted operation.
