Forsking & prosjekt
Projects
SMARTEN focuses on innovative practices based on serious games in education, addressing the water subject in line with the European goals on environment and climate.
The ambition of MEMPREX is to develop a Virtual Membrane Excellence Network addressing the next decade's challenges in the water sector, specifically focusing on the optimisation of the use of membranes in water and wastewater treatment.
The overall idea of the PATCHER project is to protect the aquatic ecosystem and human health from micropollutants by preventing their release into the environment at the source – wastewater treatment effluents.
The AECo project aims to develop a world-class international research and education platform for advancing water and wastewater treatment technologies by combining them with electrochemical processes.
The EU-funded project will develop real-time control and monitoring systems as well as a novel, cost-effective, easy to use surveillance system to optimise the removal of emerging water contaminants.
RECOVER skal finne nye prosesser for å gjenvinne fosfor og nitrogen, samtidig som det legges til rette for utnyttelse av energi fra avløpsvannet.
