Integrated water treatment in a one-stage oxidative-adsorptive process to degrade and remove harmful substances (OxFloc)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Current costs for industrial wastewater treatment in Europe are already an economic burden and are expected to rise. With 4.5 billion Euros spent each year this is restricting the growth of the European production sector, especially in water scarce areas where there is a pressing need to reuse water. OxFloc aims to reduce treatment costs by at least 30% while offering modular installation and appl ...

A novel energy efficient electrodialysis cell to recycle Acids and Bases from industrial process water based on new types of electrodes to enable internal energy recovery (NOVEED)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
Within NovEED we will investigate, develop and demonstrate a novel electrocatalytic process based on electrodialysis for the efficient recovery of acids and bases from salt solutions normally discharged at cost. This process is demanded by industrial users of acids and bases, e.g. galvanic industry, metal plating and mining industries, who will be able to regenerate their neutralized solutions to ...

Electro-agglomeration and separation of Engineered NanoParticles from process and waste water in the coating industry to minimise health and environmental risks (NANOFLOC)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Mar 31, 2015,
"The rapid introduction of nano-based products into the market has caused a major concern both for health and environmental impacts, among others from the paint and coating business. A number of studies have documented health risks related to nanoparticles, inhalation exposure and dermal contact being main exposure routes in the coating and paint industry. Likewise, discharge of nanoparticles into ...

Demonstration of a novel system to breakdown hazardous substances in wastewater streams into harmless bio-friendly compounds using multi-chromatic UV light (L4CW-DEMO)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
Many industrial processes create a significant volume of polluted waste water streams, which needs to be cleaned prior to return to the environment to ensure the sustainability of the water supplies and the environment. This is reflected in a significant body of legislation, including the European Water Framework Directive and the IPPC directive. Light4CleanWater R4SME project (FP7-SME-2008-01-232 ...

A NOVEL SYSTEM TO BREAKDOWN HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES IN WASTE WATER STREAMS INTO HARMLESS BIO-FRIENDLY COMPOUNDS USING MULTI-CHROMATIC UV LIGHT (Light4CleanWater)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2011,
There is a need to mange Europe’s finite water resources. Water discharged from industrial processes needs to be returned into our environment in a safe and clean state. This is reflected by the Water Framework Directive (EC 2455/2001/EC) and other legislation. Over 7,000 million cubic metres of heavily polluted water are discharged by our targeted industries every year in Europe, existing technol ...
