Membrane for ENERGY and WATER RECOVERY (LIFE MEMORY)

Start date: Jul 1, 2014, End date: Jun 30, 2018,

Background More than 500 million people in Europe generate around 27 billion m³ of municipal wastewater each year. Municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) consume large amounts of energy. For example, WWTPs in Germany use around 4400 GWh/year, the equivalent to roughly 1% of the country’s total net electricity consumption per year. Currently, mo ...

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 ...
