DATA CENTERS
Turning Waste Heat Into Cooling, Water, Additional Compute Capacity, and Carbon Removal
Avnos transforms low-grade waste heat from data center operations into cooling support, distilled water, additional compute capacity, and integrated carbon removal through a single platform.
Performance
70%
Around 70% reduction in facility water consumption
10%
Up to 10% increase in available compute capacity
20%
Up to 20% lower energy required for CO₂ capture
Performance estimates are based on modeling of a standard data center campus and are intended for illustrative purposes. Actual results will vary by site and operating conditions.
Deployment
Factory-built modules simplify deployment and support repeatable infrastructure deployment at scale.
The Opportunity in
Data Center Waste Heat
AI and cloud infrastructure investment is driving unprecedented growth in data center capacity worldwide.
Every data center generates two outputs: compute and heat. For decades, operators have focused on maximizing the first and managing the second.
Avnos is built around a different idea: low-grade waste heat can become an infrastructure resource that supports cooling, water production, additional compute capacity, and integrated carbon removal through a single platform.
Data Center Platform
One Platform.
Multiple Outcomes.
Water Production
Avnos produces clean water on-site as part of its process, reducing facility water consumption by approximately 70% and creating a new on-site water source for cooling reuse.
Infrastructure Efficiency
Avnos can operate on waste heat and excess power already available within the facility, creating additional value from existing infrastructure resources while supporting attractive project economics.
Increase Available Compute Capacity
Modeling based on a standard data center campus indicates Avnos can increase available compute capacity by up to 10%, helping operators create additional value from existing infrastructure.
Integrated Carbon Removal
Permanent atmospheric carbon removal is integrated into the same platform, creating an additional value stream without requiring separate infrastructure.
Platform Design
Built Around On-Site Resources
Avnos is designed to work with resources data centers already generate or manage every day: low-grade waste heat, atmospheric moisture, and excess power capacity.
By using resources already present on-site, Avnos helps operators create additional value from existing infrastructure.
Factory-Built.
Designed to Scale.
Each Avnos module is manufactured to a standardized design, factory-tested before deployment, and engineered for deployment across a range of facility types.
This modular approach reduces site complexity, supports faster deployment as infrastructure requirements grow, and is designed to deliver meaningful economic value alongside operational and sustainability benefits.
Backed by Industry Leaders
Avnos is backed by more than $100 million in funding from partners including Shell, Mitsubishi Corporation, NextEra Energy, ConocoPhillips, JetBlue Ventures, the U.S. Department of Energy, and the U.S. Department of Defense.
