About Moleaer:

MoleaerTM is an American-based nanobubble technology company with a mission to unlock the full potential of nanobubbles to enhance and protect water, food, and natural resources. Nanobubbles are neutrally buoyant, produce oxidants, are electrochemically active, and reduce surface tension. These characteristics enable nanobubbles to replace inefficient, energy-intensive gas transfer equipment and harmful chemical oxidants and surfactants with a single, energy-efficient, chemical-free solution.

Moleaer established the nanobubble industry in the U.S. by developing the first nanobubble generator that can perform cost-effectively at municipal and industrial scales. Through partnerships with universities, Moleaer has proven that nanobubbles can solve complex industrial challenges in agriculture, horticulture, aquaculture, wastewater, aquatic management, and resource recovery. Moleaer has deployed nanobubble generators at more than 600 customer sites worldwide in 32 countries, on six continents since 2016. The Company has 6 patents and patent applications and aims to broaden its patent portfolio around the use of nanobubbles across a range of physical, chemical, and biological processes. Moleaer has been the recipient of the Fast Company World Changing Ideas awards and AgTech Breakthrough awards and has been featured in Forbes. In June of 2022 the Company announced the closing of its $40 million Series C financing round led by funds managed by Apollo (NYSE: APO) and was joined by Husqvarna.

About Nanobubbles and impact on Horticulture & Agriculture:

Nanobubbles are invisible to the naked eye, 2500 times smaller than a single grain of table salt. Nanobubbles remain suspended in water for long periods Impacts of time, acting like a battery that delivers oxygen continuously to the entire body of water. As oxygen is consumed, the nanobubbles diffuse more oxygen into the solution, sustaining the dissolved oxygen level. Moleaer provides the highest proven oxygen transfer rate in the aeration and gas infusion industry, with an efficiency of over 85 percent per foot of water (Michael Stenstrom, UCLA, 2017).

Moleaer nanobubbles efficiently enhance water in multiple stages of the growth cycle. Nanobubble-enriched water has been proven to improve water quality and soil, root, and plant health while lowering treatment and oxygen costs. Many growers have also experienced increases in yield.

Improved Water Quality

• Algae reduction in source water

• Reduced Pythium levels

• Metal oxidation

• Reduced reliance on chemical treatments

• Reduction of biofilm in irrigation pipes

• Increased dissolved oxygen in water with nearly perfect gas transfer

• to reduce oxygen costs

Root, Soil & Plant Health

• Healthier root development

• Increased nutrient uptake

• Improved water retention in soil

• Improved vegetative growth

• Larger fruit size and yield
