This video is part of The Wave Talk’s in-house project, the Digitized Water Project (DWP). Using our advanced water measurement technology, the project aims to provide valuable insights to help society access cleaner water. Starting with this video, the DWP will span several series, during which we will develop prototype products and conduct various experiments to ensure cleaner water across different sectors. Staying true to The Wave Talk’s mission, we hope to make it possible for more people to drink and use clean, pure water. The turbidity of the water used prior to filtration in this experiment was 0.40 NTU. Please note that the results may vary depending on the quality of the water used.

TheWaveTalk has successfully completed its participation in the 7th cohort of the 2025 Dream Play open innovation program, jointly hosted by LG Display, ENSL Partners, and the Seoul Startup Hub (SBA). The program focused on validating and exploring the commercialization of our deep-learning–based ultrapure water monitoring solution. Over the past seven months since the Kick-Off in March, The.Wave.Talk collaborated with LG Display to complete a Proof of Concept (PoC) on high-speed bacterial detection in ultrapure water. As a result, the company was selected as a top-performing startup and secured a formal pathway for follow-up collaboration with LG Display. A Core Technology for Yield Improvement in Precision Manufacturing AI-generated image inspired by the product used during the PoC TheWaveTalk’s ultrapure water monitoring solution combines laser speckle–based optical measurement with deep-learning analysis to rapidly detect bacterial presence. This capability is critical for improving yield and reducing defects in display and semiconductor manufacturing. Throughout the PoC period, LG Display validated the technology’s performance, accuracy, and operational efficiency in a real precision manufacturing environment. The results confirmed the solution’s strong potential to enhance quality control and productivity. The technology has already received Korea’s New Excellent Technology (NET) certification in 2024 and was recognized globally with a CES 2025 Innovation Award. Follow-Up Collaboration Toward a New Industry Standard Photo from the final evaluation of the ‘2025 Dream Play’ 7th cohort / Photo by ENSL Partners During the final evaluation held on November 11 at LG Science Park in Magok, Seoul, TheWaveTalk was selected as one of the top-performing teams. This milestone lays the groundwork for positioning our deep-learning–based ultrapure water monitoring solution as a new standard in precision manufacturing. A representative from TheWaveTalk commented: “The successful PoC with LG Display is an important milestone demonstrating the practical value of our technology in precision manufacturing. Through continued collaboration, we aim to accelerate development and grow as a leading partner in ultrapure water quality management.” TheWaveTalk will continue working with LG Display to advance quality and efficiency in manufacturing processes and expand its impact across the global display and semiconductor sectors.

Global Public Drinking Water Infrastructure: A Safety Blind Spot Unlike South Korea, where indoor water purifier rentals are widespread, global markets—especially the United States—rely heavily on direct-line public drinking fountains and bottle-filling stations (such as Elkay systems) across schools, parks, offices, and airports. "From US School Mandates to Dubai’s Public Campaign" Louisiana in the U.S. enacted legislation mandating bottle-filling stations in new and renovated school buildings (at least one per floor and per 100–200 occupants). Similarly, Dubai’s "Dubai Can" campaign is expanding refill stations citywide to curb single-use plastic bottles. Driven by rising public health awareness, the global drinking fountain market continues to grow steadily. However, most of these stations are directly connected to main plumbing lines without real-time water quality monitoring. If aging pipes corrode or filter replacements are delayed, contamination remains undetected until an incident occurs—creating a critical safety blind spot. The Scalability Advantage of Public Drinking Fountains Unlike commercial water purifiers leased on individual contracts, public drinking fountains are permanent building fixtures integrated directly into architectural plumbing plans. In countries like the U.S., building and plumbing codes legally mandate a specific number of stations based on occupancy count as a requirement for building completion. Because they are directly plumbed, these stations deliver unlimited continuous flow—ideal for high-traffic venues like museums and stadiums—while eliminating disposable cup and plastic bottle waste. This structural integration allows for far faster, broader adoption than individual rental purifiers. Integrating Real-Time Turbidity Monitoring into Drinking Fountains THEWAVETALK envisions directly integrating our real-time turbidity monitoring system into global public drinking fountains. By continuously tracking filter status and water quality without requiring manual end-user maintenance, our solution safeguards public drinking water. Protecting thousands of daily users with a single sensor, this model delivers an exponential impact per installation that individual water purifiers simply cannot match.

From Research to Industry, and Into Bio THEWAVETALK has been developing core technologies to analyze diverse particle characteristics using proprietary Optical Scattering and Image Analysis. In a recently published paper, we introduced a novel analytical method for high-precision nanoparticle measurement. By combining image-based analysis with data processing technology, we successfully overcame the limitations of conventional optical measurement to deliver far more accurate micro-particle analysis. This achievement proves that our core optical platform can seamlessly scale beyond nanoparticle analysis into a wide range of industrial applications. 👉 Read the Full Paper: https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/nap2.70193 Proven Technical Excellence: Top-Tier Water Quality Measurement Our AI-based turbidity measurement technology has gained widespread recognition for its excellence through prestigious national certifications and evaluations in South Korea, including: Ministry of Environment Type Approval (K-EPA) NEP (New Excellent Product) Certification K-water New Technology Registration Minister’s Award at the Korea Invention Patent Exhibition These milestones demonstrate that our innovation extends far beyond laboratory results—it is a field-proven, highly reliable technology ready for industrial application. AI-Powered Bacteria Detection in Ultrapure Water (UPW) We are currently developing a new bio-analytical device by integrating deep-learning algorithms into our proven optical scattering technology. This upcoming system aims to detect bacterial contamination in Ultrapure Water (UPW) in under 3 hours. Unlike conventional culture methods that take days to deliver results, our technology offers minimal reagent use, rapid testing times, automated analysis, and low operational costs. It is poised to deliver a game-changing alternative for UPW monitoring across high-tech sectors including semiconductors, displays, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology. We are actively pushing forward with development to launch a working prototype within this year. Proven Technology Reliability THEWAVETALK proves its technological maturity through real-world field operations, not just laboratory data. We will continue expanding our field demonstrations across public and private facilities to set the standard for maintenance-free water quality monitoring.

Innovative Maintenance-Free Turbidimeters, Proven in the Field THE.WAVE.TALK’s proprietary optical and image analysis technologies are solving long-standing pain points in real-world water quality management. Conventional optical water quality meters frequently suffer from sensor fouling and ongoing calibration issues. Our turbidimeter overcomes these challenges, earning both Ministry of Environment Type Approval (0–10 NTU) and NEP (New Excellent Product) certification in South Korea. Building on this government-validated technology, we have expanded our measurement range up to 0–50 NTU for swimming pool environments and are successfully conducting multiple on-site field demonstrations. Public Swimming Pool in Seoul: Maintenance-Free Since February 2026 Since its installation, our water quality monitoring system has been operating reliably for six consecutive months with zero maintenance. By completely eliminating the need for manual sensor cleaning by field personnel, this site serves as a prime case study demonstrating how facility operational expenditure (OPEX) can be dramatically reduced. Launching New Field Validation at Public Swimming Pool in Gyeonggi Building on the high reliability demonstrated in our initial project, we launched a new field demonstration this past July, rapidly building out our operational track record. Two Major Municipal Swimming Pools Equipped with Larva Detection Monitoring At two major facilities in Daejeon, our turbidimeters have been upgraded with an integrated Larva Detection Monitoring feature. Our proprietary image analysis and deep-learning algorithms accurately distinguish subtle pattern differences between larvae and harmless elements like air bubbles, minimizing false alarms while precisely detecting micro-larvae as small as 1 mm. Operating 24/7 autonomously, the system instantly triggers real-time alerts to the central control monitoring system upon detecting larvae. This enables operators to take immediate corrective action before contaminated water enters the pool, establishing a rapid, reliable defense against complex water quality threats. Proven Technology Reliability THEWAVETALK proves its technological maturity through real-world field operations, not just laboratory data. We will continue expanding our field demonstrations across public and private facilities to set the standard for maintenance-free water quality monitoring.

Resolving the Fatal Bottleneck of Detecting Contamination 48 Hours Too Late Biological contamination in the Ultrapure Water (UPW) lines—the core of semiconductor yield and bio/pharmaceutical quality—leads directly to astronomical production losses. However, traditional microbial cultivation methods typically take 24 to 48 hours to confirm results, making immediate initial response structurally impossible when contamination occurs. To completely eliminate this fatal industry bottleneck, THE WAVE TALK is set to officially launch the game-changer, Alert-Culti 500, in the second half of 2026, redefining the paradigm of microbial testing in advanced industries. The Core of Alert-Culti 500: Time Innovation and Precision Deep Learning Object Recognition Ruling out the inaccuracy of traditional visual inspections while maximizing field speed and efficiency, this device delivers the following overwhelming capabilities: Revolutionary Testing Time Reduction (Under 6 Hours): The Alert-Culti 500 radically reduces the sterility testing time in ultrapure water to under 6 hours. This eliminates the "blind time" of contamination awareness and minimizes damage to the processing line. Fusion of Precision Laser Optical Technology and Advanced Algorithms: We have fully integrated our precision laser optical technology with our proprietary image analysis and deep learning algorithm. Based on laser scattering signals, our advanced AI precisely targets trace amounts of microbial growth and early patterns, pushing data credibility and alarm reliability to the absolute limit. Minimized Pre-treatment and Maximized Usability for Non-Experts: Designed for immediate use in industrial sites, we minimized pre-treatment processes, thereby eliminating human errors. By adopting an intuitive User Interface (UI), we have maximized usability so that general field operators, not just specialized microbiologists, can operate the equipment instantly without complex training. Official Launch in H2 2026: Securing the Water Safety Net for High-Tech Industries The Alert-Culti 500 flawlessly resolves the critical time delays of traditional microbial testing, providing overwhelming labor productivity and risk-blocking effects for advanced B2B industries where UPW is vital.

As water infrastructure faces unprecedented challenges globally, securing reliable water quality data without prohibitive operating expense (OPEX) is the ultimate industry goal. At ACE 2026, THE WAVE TALK took center stage at the official Education Session, presenting a definitive architectural solution to the industry's chronic headache: sensor fouling and manual upkeep. The Core Tech: Complete Fouling Immunity Global engineers were highly intrigued by the physics and AI architecture powering our Fouling-Immune Turbidimeter: Dynamic Time-Series Image Analysis Unlike traditional sensors, our technology utilizes a proprietary image analysis and deep learning algorithm. It continuously analyzes dynamic behavioral shifts in high-speed optical images rather than relying on absolute light transmission. Eliminating the Adhesion Blind Spot The software autonomously distinguishes fluid turbidity changes from particulate buildup, completely eliminating the need for failure-prone mechanical wipers. Future-Proof Scalability (Bacteria Sensing) This very same algorithmic intelligence is being advanced to realize real-time bacteria sensing without traditional biological reagents. The Global Market Echoes: Commercial Readiness Tier-one global water enterprises responded enthusiastically to our commercial readiness, highlighting three distinct milestones: Government-Validated Certified Product Successfully achieving official Type Approval and NEP (New Excellent Product) certification, making it fully ready for immediate commercial deployment. Proven Commercial Footprint Moving beyond the testing phase to active, flawless operation across major public water treatment facilities. 1-Year Zero-Maintenance Data Empirical field data showing over one full year of continuous operation with zero manual intervention or calibration drift, sparking high-level discussions for global adoptions. By proving a true fouling-immune environment is achievable through algorithmic intelligence, THE WAVE TALK is transitioning from an innovator to an infrastructure standard. We look forward to reshaping the global water treatment landscape.

Integrated Monitoring Beyond Physical Checks to Block Biological Threats As biological contamination risks, such as the discovery of larvae in tap water, continue to rise globally, the safety nets of purification plants and municipalities are under threat. Traditional monitoring systems relying solely on physical and chemical indicators cannot proactively defend against sudden biological threats in real-time. In response, THE WAVE TALK officially introduces the Customizable Total Water Quality Monitoring System (TMS). Going far beyond the limitations of conventional monitoring, this system blocks unpredictable biological threats in real-time, restoring absolute trust in tap water. The Core of Our TMS: Real-Time Larvae Detection and Government-Validated Tech This system is the most flexible modular monitoring framework designed to accommodate diverse field environments and budget constraints, boasting the following unmatched capabilities: 6-in-1 Customizable Configuration with Larvae Detection: We have seamlessly integrated the industry’s greatest challenge, real-time larvae detection, alongside the 5 essential parameters (Turbidity, Residual Chlorine, pH, Electrical Conductivity, and Temperature) into a single system. Clients can economically build their system by selecting only the sensors they need tailored to their specific site conditions. Minimized False Alarms via Government-Validated Technology: Data reliability is the lifeblood of any monitoring system. The integrated turbidimeter has acquired the coveted NEP (New Excellent Product) certification, officially recognizing its technological prowess by the state. Based on this highly stringent Government-Validated technology, we minimize false alarms, entirely preventing confusion among field operators. Fouling-Immune Core Sensor for TCO Reduction We aim for a strictly Maintenance-Free environment for our core turbidimeter through internal structural innovations that fundamentally suppress the adhesion of foreign substances. It guarantees stable 24-hour operation even in harsh, unmanned observation posts, resulting in a dramatic TCO (Total Cost of Ownership) reduction over the entire deployment period. Completing Smart Water Networks with Site-Specific Designs THE WAVE TALK’s TMS provides an immediate water quality control network with a flexible design tailored to your site's budget and needs. We protect industrial and public water infrastructures with outstanding economic efficiency and state-backed reliability.

The Future of Water Quality Monitoring, All in One Platform From water treatment membranes to swimming pools, home water purifiers, smart appliances, and even ultrapure water in precision industries — reliable water quality monitoring has become essential everywhere. Yet until now, the market lacked ultra-compact, cost-effective turbidity sensors capable of delivering high-precision measurements for years without maintenance. The.Wave.Talk is redefining this landscape by mass-producing next-generation turbidity sensors that work seamlessly across all applications, setting a new standard for water monitoring. In-line Turbidity Meter (TSC-50/IQ-50) Designed for municipal and industrial facilities, the TSC-50/IQ-50 Inline Turbidity Meter integrates directly into pipeline systems for real-time monitoring. Operators no longer need separate sampling processes or external devices — turbidity data is available instantly for immediate response. Its maintenance-free and auto-calibrating design ensures stable performance without frequent checks, making it an ideal solution for public utilities operating with limited manpower and budgets. Long-term field tests confirm that TSC-50/IQ-50 maintains accuracy for over a year without any cleaning, delivering unmatched reliability for continuous operation. Turbidity Sensor Module (WP-4000, WP-4001) Until recently, real-time turbidity measurement at the household level was nearly impossible. The WP-4000 module changes that. Based on custom semiconductors, this ultra-compact sensor can operate over 10 years maintenance-free, while being much more cost-efficient than traditional sensors. This breakthrough addresses a critical issue: studies show that 25% of household water purifiers may degrade water quality by releasing contaminants during filtration. With WP-4000, consumers and manufacturers gain access to real-time water quality data at the tap — ensuring that purified water is truly clean. WaveTap : Install Once. Five Years of Data. ※ Under Development WaveTap is a battery-powered turbidity sensor engineered for distributed water quality monitoring at the service connection — the point where the water network meets the end user. Unlike conventional monitoring equipment that requires wiring, periodic calibration, or specialist maintenance, WaveTap mounts onto an existing service line via a standard service saddle. Once in place, it operates on a 5-year sealed-for-life service cycle with zero field calibration or maintenance needed. WaveTap and the host smart meter operate as parallel, independent devices on the same service line — each independently addressable, each handling its own function. Figure 1. System architecture: smart meter and WaveTap as parallel devices on the service line, each independently addressable. WaveTap operates on its own onboard radio module. Supports both greenfield and retrofit deployment. 5-year service cycle. TWO VARIANTS FOR DIFFERENT SMART METER ARCHITECTURES A key design consideration for WaveTap is compatibility with the diverse landscape of smart meter platforms already deployed in the field. WaveTap is offered in two variants accordingly. Host-Shutoff Linked works in coordination with smart meters that have remote disconnect capability. When the host meter closes its shutoff, WaveTap takes its turbidity reading on the stagnant water in the line. No additional valve is required. Valve-Integrated incorporates its own shutoff valve at the sample chamber. This enables fully on-demand turbidity measurement, independent of host meter operation — making it compatible with ultrasonic flow meters and other architectures without integral shutoff. Both variants share the same sensing core, communication module, and 5-year service cycle. In-line Bacteria Measurement Device ※ Under Development (PoC with LG Display) Building upon its expertise in turbidity measurement, The.Wave.Talk is expanding into the field of real-time bacterial detection.Through a Proof of Concept (PoC) with LG Display, the company is developing the world’s first inline bacteria measurement device capable of simultaneously detecting turbidity and bacteria. This product is based on The.Wave.Talk’s technology that received NET (New Excellent Technology) certification in 2025 — “High-speed detection of foreign particles and microorganisms in purified water using deep-learning algorithms.”The technology has been officially recognized by the Korean government for both its technical excellence and commercialization potential. The device achieves a detection limit of 100 CFU/mL and operates 40 times faster than traditional culture-based methods, offering 100,000 times higher resolution than conventional optical tools.It introduces a new standard for microbial monitoring in industries requiring extreme precision and hygiene, such as semiconductor manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and food production. Traditional bacterial analysis methods rely on culture-based processes that take 24–48 hours and require trained personnel and laboratory facilities.In contrast, The.Wave.Talk’s deep-learning–powered technology can identify bacteria much faster with exceptional accuracy.Validated through KOLAS certification, government testing, and clinical trials at Severance Hospital, the system demonstrated 100% accuracy and the capability to distinguish bacterial concentrations as low as 0.1%.Compared to FDA-certified systems, it also exhibited superior sensitivity and specificity. Conventional bacterial and particle measurement systems depend on manual procedures, periodic maintenance, and long analysis times (often over 24 hours).The.Wave.Talk’s sensor is the world’s first to enable real-time, simultaneous, and fully automatic measurement of both bacteria and particles. By combining proprietary optical signal amplification with AI-based speckle signal analysis, the system reduces maintenance requirements by up to 50 times and shortens analysis time by 40 times, providing results within 30 minutes.With over 100 patents filed and 80 registrations completed, this breakthrough technology establishes a new generation of intelligent, efficient, and economically scalable water quality monitoring platforms. Add-on Type(PipeTalk™) ※ Under Development Aging water distribution networks, micro-leakage, and biofilm buildup are common challenges in water supply systems worldwide.Currently under development, PipeTalk™ utilizes real-time turbidity data to detect early signs of anomalies within pipelines, enabling predictive and preventative maintenance. By shifting from reactive response to proactive management, PipeTalk™ enables the transition toward smart, preventive water network operations.This represents more than just monitoring — it’s a step toward a sustainable and resilient water management system. In addition, PipeTalk™ provides real-time membrane integrity monitoring for each vessel, detecting abnormalities in membrane filtration units (MF/UF, NF/RO) and minimizing fouling or damage.The system continuously collects data after backwash, filtration, and permeation stages, allowing operators to gain a comprehensive overview of membrane integrity across the entire process — ultimately maximizing operational efficiency and membrane lifespan. Conventional turbidimeters require regular cleaning, calibration, and skilled operation. In contrast, The.Wave.Talk’s technology delivers world-class accuracy while operating maintenance-free for over five years. Tested and certified by KOLAS and verified by government agencies, the system meets drinking water standards with proven precision and reproducibility. Evaluations by leading global home appliance manufacturers have also confirmed that the sensor maintains stable performance under harsh conditions such as pressure, vibration, temperature fluctuations, and humidity — setting a new benchmark for long-term stability and operational efficiency across both public and industrial sectors.

Blocking tap-water anxiety with a real-time “larvae detection sensor” In recent years, public concern over water safety has grown as tiny organisms—such as non-biting midge larvae—have been found in water treatment plants and tap water across the country. Because microscopic larvae can slip through blind spots in the purification process and reach household faucets, they have become one of the most critical and urgent risks for local governments and water-treatment agencies to address. Until now, larvae monitoring has relied on an analog approach: operators periodically checking strainers or filters with the naked eye. This not only makes real-time surveillance impossible, but also has a fatal limitation—larvae are often detected only after they have already passed through the filtration media. In response, THE WAVE TALK introduces an innovative real-time larvae detection sensor that monitors water quality 24/7 without interruption, presenting a new paradigm in water-quality management. Core of THE WAVE TALK’s Larvae Detection Sensor: Deep-Learning-Based Real-Time Object Recognition THE WAVE TALK’s larvae detection sensor was created by combining our proven core “laser optical technology,” already validated through our turbidimeters, with proprietary image analysis and deep-learning algorithms. In the field, this solution delivers outstanding performance: Precise identification of microscopic larvae (≥ 1 mm) with minimal false detections: A deep-learning algorithm accurately distinguishes actual living organisms (larvae) of 1 mm or larger—difficult to confirm even with the naked eye—from simple particles or bubbles floating in water. This dramatically reduces false alarms that can confuse on-site operators. 24 hours real-time monitoring: In water-quality incidents where every second matters, the sensor monitors continuously without human intervention. The moment larvae are detected, it sends real-time alerts to the control system, enabling immediate first response—such as shutting valves before contaminated water reaches the reservoir. Low-maintenance (OPEX-minimizing) design: Like our turbidimeters, the sensor is designed to minimize fouling, enabling stable long-term operation without frequent cleaning or inspections by field personnel. Strong Interest Proven at ENVEX 2026, Completing Smart Water Network Management THE WAVE TALK recently participated in ENVEX 2026 (International Environmental Industry & Green Energy Exhibition) held at COEX, successfully showcasing the physical sensor and a live real-time demonstration. Many local government and water-treatment professionals who visited the booth expressed strong interest in our deep-learning object recognition technology, which fully overcomes the limitations of visual inspection, and showed high expectations for real-world deployment. Larva Detection Sensor integrated into the Comprehensive Water Quality Monitoring System More than a measuring device, THE WAVE TALK’s larvae detection sensor serves as a dense safety net across the entire water infrastructure—from treatment plants to household faucets. Backed by strong public-sector technological capabilities proven through the K-eco Grand Prize and NEP certification, we will continue to protect clear, transparent water with technology so that everyone can drink with confidence, 365 days a year.

Nationally Certified Water Management Innovation: Final Approval for MOTIE's NEP Certification Continuous automatic turbidity measurement is a critical indicator for water quality management in water treatment plants and facilities. THE WAVE TALK has set a new technological milestone in this market, which has long relied on expensive foreign equipment. Our continuous automatic turbidity meter for water treatment plants, the 'TSC-50/IQ-50', has officially received the 'NEP (New Excellent Product)' certification from the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Resources (MOTIR). The NEP certification is a state-guaranteed system that officially endorses products developed for the first time in Korea or those that have innovatively improved existing technologies to secure high performance and economic efficiency. Certified products are subject to strict technological and marketability evaluations, which include making them eligible for mandatory purchase by public institutions. Following the acquisition of the Ministry of Environment's Type Approval (No. DWMS-TM-2025-6), THE WAVE TALK has now passed the NEP certification, securing a solid foothold for expanding into the public infrastructure market. Korea's First Laser-Based Continuous Turbidity Meter: What Makes It Different? The TSC-50/IQ-50 is Korea's first laser-based turbidity meter for water treatment plants, overcoming chronic on-site challenges through our proprietary technology. During the NEP evaluation process, the following exceptional innovations were highly praised: Eliminating Measurement Errors via Proprietary Image Analysis Algorithms: Fine bubbles, irregular water flow (pulsation), and sensor fouling have chronically hindered precise measurements. The TSC-50/IQ-50 applies a proprietary image analysis and processing algorithm to effectively control these external interferences. This minimizes the measurement error to within 6% and ensures uncompromised data reliability even during 24 hours continuous operation. Groundbreaking Reduction in OPEX: By fundamentally blocking the factors that cause malfunctions and sensor fouling, the manual inspection and cleaning cycle for site managers has been drastically reduced to roughly 'once every two years' compared to existing foreign equipment. This directly translates into substantially improved operational efficiency and reduced public operating costs. Minimizing Installation Costs and Space Constraints: The system can be installed without the need for additional bulky equipment, such as large water tanks or constant-speed pumps, which were previously essential to suppress bubbles and pulsation. This eliminates unnecessary construction costs and offers flexible spatial efficiency, even in cramped on-site environments. Achieving Over 90% Parts Localization to Strengthen Korea's Water Industry THE WAVE TALK serves as a new alternative for facilities that have long struggled with the frequent recalibrations and slow part supplies associated with foreign equipment. By achieving a parts localization rate of over 90%, this product reasonably lowers the initial adoption cost compared to foreign alternatives. Furthermore, our domestic production lines guarantee rapid part supply and enhanced maintenance convenience. The TSC-50/IQ-50 has already proven its exceptional effectiveness and commercial viability in actual water treatment plants by winning the 'Grand Prize' at the K-eco (Korea Environment Corporation) Mutual Cooperation Outstanding Project Competition. Earning the NEP certification signifies the arrival of an innovative water monitoring alternative that local governments and public institutions can adopt with complete confidence. THE WAVE TALK will continue to lead the advancement of Korea's water management infrastructure through our proprietary laser-based turbidity meters.
