Improving current barriers for controlling pharmaceutical compounds in urban wastewater treatment plants (LIFE Impetus)
Start date: Jan 1, 2016, End date: Jun 30, 2019,
Background
Pharmaceutical compounds (PhCs) are emerging contaminants of environmental-health concern that, if not checked, could adversely affect drinking water sources and reuse projects, two key issues of sustainable water management.
To develop water reuse and ensure the preservation of drinking water supplies in Europe, it is thus important to elimi ...

A common European approach to the regulatory testing of nanomaterials (NANOREG)
Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
The innovative and economic potential of Manufactured Nano Materials (MNMs) is threatened by a limited understanding of the related EHS issues. While toxicity data is continuously becoming available, the relevance to regulators is often unclear or unproven. The shrinking time to market of new MNM drives the need for urgent action by regulators. NANoREG is the first FP7 project to deliver the answe ...

Tailoring hybrid membrane processes for sustainable drinking water production (LIFE HyMemb)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Background
Anthropogenic pressures and climate change are responsible for severe variations in raw water availability and quality, and for the degradation of water sources by emerging contaminants that are of environmental-health concern because of their toxicity, mutagenicity and/or endocrine-disrupting behaviour. These include personal care products and ...
