About Cascade Aquatics

Built around a problem, not a favorite technology

Cascade Aquatics is an early-stage water-quality company developing new approaches to permanent nutrient removal from freshwater lakes.

We believe some impaired lakes need more than nutrient control—they need an engineered pathway that allows accumulated phosphorus to actually leave the aquatic system.

Cascade combines lake science, process engineering, treatment technology, monitoring, and data to determine where permanent nutrient removal can create meaningful restoration value.

Mission

Create scalable tools that permanently remove excess nutrients and help restore freshwater lakes.

Vision

Make measurable nutrient export a standard option in the lake-restoration toolbox.

How we think

The customer problem comes first

Cascade is not fundamentally a filtration-equipment company. The goal is to combine diagnostics, treatment selection, process integration, permitting experience, operating capability, and outcome data around one practical metric:

Phosphorus permanently removed per dollar—paired with improvement in lake condition.
