Microbial Desalination for Low Energy Drinking Water (MIDES)

Start date: Apr 1, 2016, End date: Mar 31, 2020,

Shortage of fresh water has become one of the major challenges for societies all over the world. Water desalination offers an opportunity to significantly increase the freshwater supply for drinking, industrial use and irrigation. All current desalination technologies require significant electrical or thermal energy, with today's Reverse Osmosis (RO) desalination units consuming electric energy of ...

Increased Water Efficiency with Ceramic membrane technology (IWEC)

Start date: Jul 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2015,

This project aims to break through the market barriers for the introduction of ceramic membrane solutions, by the implementation of the first full scale ceramic membrane plant for the treatment of waste water produced by drinking water companies. The expectation is that if one major end-user invests in a ceramic membrane solution, the barrier for other potential users will be lowered significantly ...

Regenerable active polyelectrolyte nanofiltration membranes for water reuse and metal/acid recovery (LbLBRANE)

Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Jan 31, 2015,

The shortage of drinking water in many regions on the planet constitutes a real problem and hazard. The use of seawater, brackish water and wastewater for human consumption is not a new concept. In spite of the success of membrane technology in water reclamation, membrane separation systems suffer from a serious problem: membrane fouling. The main downside is an inevitabe increase in operation and ...
