REA Resource Recovery Systems is a technology company focused on solving a $126 billion annual problem faced by wastewater treatment plants worldwide.

Billions of kilograms of FOG (fats, oils, grease) are discharged into sewers annually, causing pipe blockages that lead to Sanitary Sewer Overflows. FOG is costly to manage, treat and dispose, and has a negative impact on the environment. 

REA’s technology diverts and captures FOG from sewer systems and transforms this waste into premium-grade biodiesel (ASTM B-100) that can be used by municipalities to power their school buses, garbage trucks, fire engines, etc.

With its intellectual property, developed under the auspices of the University of Connecticut over the past 13 years, REA is a market leader in FOG management solutions for wastewater treatment plants worldwide.
