Clear River Enviro, an i2E portfolio company, is out to revolutionize the disposal of pharmaceutical waste in surgery centers and hospitals.

The standard is hiring a third party to come pick up barrels of chemicals and transport them to a medical chemical waste incinerator in another state.

Clear River’s solution is a patented portable device, called RxDestructTM, that uses a unique chemical process to break up molecules in pharmaceutical waste and render them safe for the environment.  These chemicals are rendered inert and can be poured down the sink in the operating room.
