Inland Seas

Molecular Sequestration

The Great Lakes act as hydrologic reservoirs where legacy particulates settle. Our Sub-Benthic Stabilization protocols utilize specialized geofabrics to neutralize industrial-era compounds at the molecular level, ensuring they remain ecologically inert and isolated from the water column.

Vortex Interception

Utilizing centrifugal vortex physics to isolate micro-plastics and industrial oils at municipal discharge points. By intercepting these elements at the source, we maintain the pristine integrity of the broader basin.

Reactive Core Engineering

We deploy Reactive Core Mats (RCMs) containing organoclay and apatite. This engineering solution creates a passive chemical barrier that binds targeted ions while allowing clean water to cycle naturally through the system.

Hydrodynamic Separation

Vortex separators utilize the kinetic energy of flowing water to spin out 80% of urban particulates. This passive technology requires zero external power, maintaining a net-zero carbon footprint for the CCIF Inland Seas network.
