An Integrated Membrane Process for Oily Wastewater Treatment, Water Reuse and Valuable By-Products Recovery (O-WaR)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
A large amount of wastewater in the form of oil-in-water is generated in different industries such as olive mills, metal processing and offshore oil and gas. The wastewater treatment equipment market was worth >€1 billion in 2010. All the industries face the same problems: to separate emulsified oil from water in a cost-effective way and to handle large volumes of oily waste in an economical way. ...

PREPARED “ENABLING CHANGE” (PREPARED)
Start date: Feb 1, 2010, End date: Jan 31, 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 ...

High algal recovery using a Salsnes Water to Algae Treatment (SWAT) filter technology (Operation SWAT)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
... modifying wastewater treatment technologies to harvest algae. Salsnes Water to Algae Treatment (SWAT) technology will use a flocculator followed by a Salsnes Filter to harvest algae. Two RTDs (Aquateam and HERI) will carry out research and development to achieve the objective. Two test sites have been chosen (IGV in Germany and Aqualia in Spain) to test the SWAT technology.The SWAT technology wil ...

An Integrated and Modular Bio-Monitoring Ballast Water Treatment System based on Advanced UV Plasma Technology Delivering Maximum Performance and Lowest System Lifetime Cost (UV-Mon)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2013,
Ballast Water poses a significant threat to the environment since it contains invasive species which are discharged to sea. The cost for controlling invasive species is very high (€9.6 - €12.7 billion). Prevention is better, hence the IMO introduced standards in 2004 (due to come into force). The Convention requires ships to have Ballast Water Treatment (BWT) system installed by 2016. BWT is an ev ...

"Treatment of high organic load, high temperature and high salinity industrial waste water containing recalcitrant contaminants" (PROMETHEUS)
Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Oct 31, 2012,
"PROMETHEUS aims to treat high organic load high temperature (85°C), and high salinity industrial waste waters containing recalcitrant contaminants originating from injection/extrusion and post-washing processes in aluminium and rubber parts production industries. PROMETHEUS waste water treatment system treats these waste waters obtaining a final effluent meeting discharge requirements plus high p ...
