Title:
2S Water Sensor Demonstration
Agreement Number:
1029059
Agreement Value:
$553,705.09
Agreement Date:
Mar 4, 2025 - Dec 31, 2025
Description:
2S Water is developing a sensor system to ensure safe drinking water. Our system will scan the output of water treatment facilities for 105 contaminants identified in federal water guidelines, and provide reports and near real-time data to operators on demand via web-enabled technologies, no matter what the operator’s skill level. Our service will be fully automated and only require annual maintenance. Over the first five years of deployment, the impact of launching this new technology will be the reduction of 13,334 tonnes of CO2e, 349,778,500 m3 of water, 19,265 tonnes of chemicals, and 211,363,645 m3 of tailings water in the first five years of deployment, which represents 117 treatment facilities in Canada and 1118 worldwide, totalling 1235 deployment.
2S Water will help communities protect their water quality by letting operators know immediately when the quality of their water changes or a contaminant intrusion occurs. This will enable communities to better protect the health of their citizens, and improve the environment by allowing their operators to use more precise amounts of chemicals in their water treatment at lower cost.

Program Purpose:
The NRC-IRAP Clean Technology Program will support Canadian SMEs in the research and development of sustainable development technologies, up to their commercialization, with the potential to deliver economic and environmental outcomes.
Coverage:
NRC-IRAP Clean Technology projects stimulate wealth creation for Canada through sustainable development technological innovation, while improving Canada’s environmental indicators related to greenhouse gas emissions (GCG), waste management, air quality or drinking water based on the types of sustainable development technologies that will be supported.│Les projets de technologies propres du PARI-CNRC stimulent la création de richesse pour le Canada grâce à l’innovation technologique en matière de développement durable, tout en améliorant les indicateurs environnementaux du Canada liés aux émissions de gaz à effet de serre (GES), à la gestion des déchets, à la qualité de l’air ou à l’eau potable en fonction des types de technologies de développement durable qui seront soutenues.
