Fouling resistant ceramic honeycomb nanofilters for efficient water treatment (CeraWater)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2015,
The main challenge of the proposed project is the development of a ceramic honeycomb nanofiltration membrane with strongly increased membrane area of up to 25 m². The strongly increased membrane area in comparison with existing ceramic membranes for nanofiltration in combination with a high surface to volume ratio shall be competitive with polymeric membranes in terms of economics. The nanofiltrat ...

PREPARED “ENABLING CHANGE” (PREPARED)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2010, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2014,
IPCC climate change scenarios have a global perspective and need to be scaled down to the local level, where decision makers have to balance risks and investment costs. Very high investments might be a waste of money and too little investment could result in unacceptable risk for the local community. PREPARED is industry driven, 12 city utilities are involved in the project and the RDT carried out ...
