About Us

Wastewater infrastructure hasn’t kept pace with the world. Sankoya is changing that.

We’re engineers, scientists, and builders developing patented technology that treats solid waste at source—eliminating the need for sewers and centralized treatment plants. Our mission is to modernize the systems communities depend on—faster, more cost-effective, safer, and lower carbon.

The world has perfected “flush and forget.” But the infrastructure handling what comes next hasn’t meaningfully changed since the 19th century. The consequences are everywhere: waterborne disease, contaminated groundwater, and a growing climate burden.

Globally, hundreds of millions of tonnes of untreated wastewater are discharge each year.

Solar proved that decentralized, scalable technology can reshape an entire system. We believe wastewater is next—and Sankoya is building the technology to make that happen.
