RASA is a technology and engineering company revolutionizing molecular
science.
We apply our groundbreaking theory of molecular interactions to achieve
outcomes once thought impossible, enabling us to transform materials
with unprecedented Precision and Efficiency.
The application of our advancements unlocks endless possibilities to
transform industries such as energy, recycling, manufacturing, and
ecological conservation.
This will change how we make and remake our world.
‘programmed’ to recognize their unique properties
regardless of their context or environment
resulting in a higher-quality, higher-value yield
resulting in low-to-no environmental costs
To make the biggest impact, we focus on one molecule: hydrocarbons.
Hydrocarbons are the foundation of the global economy, as well as the
source of the world’s most pressing challenges. What is more, hydrocarbons are everywhere, and RASA’s technology extracts them from
anything:
With precision: targeting distinct hydrocarbon groups and separating them from their host material.
With efficiency: dramatically reducing economic costs while
incurring low-to-no environmental costs.
The hydrocarbon industries are essential to modern life, yet face demands for change near impossible to achieve. Our radical approach resolves these intractable challenges and paradoxes.
Transforming materials is central to human technology and industry. For millions of years, we have relied on just one approach: Brute Force-
through the application of Heat and Pressure.
This approach is inherently imprecise, wasteful, and energy intensive. It depletes natural resources, harms the environment, and leads to economic inefficiency.
Today’s global industrial systems demand a shift away from these destructive processes that no longer align with our economic or
environmental standards
RASA’s insights into the properties and behavior of molecules allow us to harness nature’s own laws to guide material transformation. This eliminates the need for brute force and its destructive consequences, in stark contrast to every industrial process since the beginning of time.
Our process operates with low energy and low entropy. The result, in short, is RASA achieves more with less. More precision and efficiency with
less waste, less costs, less resources, less emissions, less energy, less pollutants, less harm…
Brute force methods rely on high energy inputs such as heat or pressure. Our approach doesn’t require intensive energy resulting in greater efficiency, which is more sustainable and lowers costs.
Brute force methods cause a system to become chaotic and disordered (high entropy). Our approach minimizes this randomness, resulting in a purer product with no contaminants and less waste.
The Polar Selective Agent in action, transforming plastic forks back to virgin stock for recycling.
We tune a Polar Selective Agent (PSA), in gas or liquid form, to recognize the unique properties of a target molecule.
The PSA and target molecule conjoin generating a polar condition that repels other matter – aggregate, water, contaminants etc. – separating
them from the host material.
This not only produces a purer, higher-quality yield, but also refines the molecule, which retains a 'memory' of the interaction, preserving specific
properties and making it more valuable.
The process generates no heat or waste, and takes place at ambient temperatures and pressures, resulting in low environmental and economic
costs.
When detached from its target molecule the PSA will go to hunt for more, making the process virtually perpetual.
