Dry anaerobic digestion as an alternative management & treatment solution for sewage sludge (LIFE-ANADRY)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 28 févr. 2019,
Background
Sewage sludge generated in urban wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is a complex, heterogeneous mixture of microorganisms, inorganic materials and organic substances. It is classified as a non-hazardous waste. Sludge disposal can represent up to 50% of the WWTP management costs. Sewage sludge must undergo some treatment in order to reduce its ...

Synergic TPAD and O3 process in WWTPs for Resoruce Efficient waste management (LIFE STO3RE)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,
Background
Pollution from agriculture is a major pressure on Europeâs freshwater resources. Nutrients (nitrogen and phosphorous) from fertilisers, pesticides, organic material, pathogenic micro-organisms in sediment and micropollutants are washed into waterways. This is especially the case in areas with intense rainfall and poorly drained soils. In some ...

Integrated anaerobic system for wastewater reclamation at ambient temperature in European climates (LIFE SIAMEC)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2018,
Background
The growing problem of scarcity of water of sufficient quality affects around 70% of European citizens, especially those in southern countries where the impact of climate change is greater. In fact, some are living in extreme situations with increased frequency of flooding or drought. As the cost of energy production increases, so too does the ...

ECO-FRIENDLY CERAMIC MEMBRANE BIOREACTOR (MBR) BASED ON RECYCLED AGRICULTURAL AND INDUSTRIAL WASTES FOR WASTE WATER REUSE (REMEB)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 31 août 2018,
The main objectives of the REMEB project are the implementation and validation of a low-cost ceramic membrane bioreactor (MBR) in a Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTP), the study of the impact and replication of the technology for the reuse of the water in regions with water scarcity and the industrial sector, and finally, the definition of a proper business plan to start the commercialization of t ...

Enhanced Reclaimed wAter quality through MainStream anaErobic treatment using Supported biomass growth. (LIFE RAMSES)
Date du début: 16 juil. 2015, Date de fin: 15 juil. 2018,
Background
According to a recent United Nationsâ report, the percentage of appropriated water has risen by up to 30% in recent years: the consumption of water per capita increases (due to the improvement of living standards), the population grows and as a result, the amount of available water is less than the overall demand. Some regions of the Europea ...

Optimised Renewable Mix for Energy Saving in Waste Water Treatment Plants (LIFE-RENEWAT)
Date du début: 1 juil. 2014, Date de fin: 30 juin 2017,
Background
Across the EU, there are around 16 000 waste water treatment plants (WWTPs). Treatment of waste water is necessary to prevent pollution from being discharged into water courses. It can also provide water that is clean enough for re-use in certain contexts, which can be particularly useful in areas suffering from water stress.
However, re-use o ...

Improving Water Reuse at the coastal areas by an advanced desalination process. (LIFE-OFREA)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2016,
Background
Water scarcity in Europe remains a problem, due to, amongst other things, population growth, urbanisation, and climate change. The Water Framework Directive (WFD) promotes measures for water reuse from treated wastewater as one option for helping avoid over exploitation of aquifers. In coastal and island areas this can be especially pertinent, ...
