Two people. Three continents of experience. One mission.

Bob Drew: Chemical Engineer, former Kimberly Clark R&D leader, and the person who once eliminated a million gallons of daily water waste from a single mill. He's been solving water problems since before it was urgent.

Mercedes Bazterrica: Economist, multilingual executive, and the person who turns environmental conviction into business strategy. Raised across Spain and France, her career has crossed Europe, Latin America, and the USA.

They founded ECOVIE because the water problem is real, the solutions exist, and someone has to build them.

Every April, water conservation moves to the front of the conversation. But for ECOVIE, it's never left.

Water scarcity, flooding, polluting water discharge, and aging infrastructure are year-round realities, and the buildings we design today will either be part of the problem or part of the solution for the next 50 years.

We're spotlighting the four product lines that make on-site water resilience achievable for sustainable commerical projects.

Creating a water management company isn’t for everyone, but Bob isn’t just anyone.

To dive deeper into why ECOVIE exists, we’re kicking off a video series, starting with our origin story.

In this clip, Bob reflects on his prior experience, and how it led to the idea of starting ECOVIE.

With passing this week and coming up on Sunday, I’m reminded about this interview featuring one of our early projects.

We were living and working in Georgia, and we had the opportunity to root for the hometown team (Atlanta Braves) at Turner Field.

Back then, my goal was to harvest rainwater for irrigation. Now it goes deeper than rainwater, and further into recycling greywater.

It all started a few years after we started ECOVIE. I couldn’t stop thinking about a simple problem: we build sophisticated, expensive buildings, and then we route perfectly usable water straight to the sewer.

Greywater from showers, sinks, laundry, A/C condensate, leaves every commercial building in America without a second thought. It gets treated at a plant, pumped back and billed again. Rinse and repeat.

While we started with rainwater, it’s really the shift into greywater recycling that helps reduce a building’s potable water demand by 20 to 40%.

That’s not a rounding error.

Last year alone, we helped supply 25,000,000 gallons of water across our projects. Can you imagine what we could do with more projects across the US?

If you’re an engineer or developer reading this: water resilience isn’t a future problem. The tools exist right now. The certifications exist. The ROI is real. The only thing missing is the decision to act.

Happy World Water Day. Let’s use it well.

The Spur Hydro building at Colorado State University in Fort Collins, has saved more than 1,000,000 gallons since we installed the AQUALOOP greywater system several years ago.

The CSU Spur houses three separate research facilities: Vida, Terra, and Hydro. Within the Hydro facility is the Water Technology Acceleration Platform (“The Water TAP”), a state-of-the-art laboratory space designed to propel water technology from research prototypes to market-ready (commercial) products.

It was custom designed and installed to be able to test various aspects of source greywater and the impact of the AQUALOOP membrane bioreactor (MBR) on treatment and water quality.

One of the easiest ways to explain what we do is to show you.

Rainwater collected from rooftops is a clean and abundant source or water that can be made potable with minimal treatment. Rainwater harvesting and treatment for potable use is also a key requirement for Living Building Challenge (LBC) certification, highlighting its role in sustainable commercial building design.

Greywater is typically sourced from showers, bath tubs and laundry. It travels down the drains to the AQUALOOP system you see at the bottom of the diagram, then travels back up to be used for non-potable uses, such as irrigation, toilet flushing, cooling tower makeup and more.

Stormwater is precipitation runoff from any surface on a property including parking lots, access roads, and landscape, in addition to roofs. Stormwater is more contaminated than rainwater, but both are abundant sources to be used for non-potable purposes such as irrigation, toilet flushing, cooling tower make-up and more.
