Our Story

This technology was born out of research carried out by Diran Apelian and Sean Kelly at the Center for Resource Recovery and Recycling (CR3) at Worcester Polytechnic Institute. The team went on to secure a Phase I and Phase II SBIR award from the National Science Foundation for the further development and commercialization of VALIS.
