Bio-electrochemically-assisted recovery of valuable resources from urine (ValueFromUrine)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

The bio-electrochemically-assisted recovery of valuable resources from urine (ValueFromUrine) project will develop, optimize and evaluate an innovative bio-electrochemical system that allows for the recovery of phosphorus (P), ammonia (NH3) and electricity (E) or hydrogen from urine. The innovative principle is that biological oxidation of organics (present in urine) at a bio-anode drives both the ...

Bioelectrochemical systems for metal recovery (BIOELECTROMET)

Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Mar 31, 2016,

Global primary metal resources are rapidly dwindling and the mining and metallurgical industries are increasingly turning to lower grade minerals for metal extraction, typically increasing costs. Innovative environmental metal extraction techniques are required to increase mining sustainability, increase revenues and lower its impact on the environment. In this project, bioelectrochemical technolo ...

Capacitive mixing as a novel principle for generation of clean renewable energy from salinity differences (CAPMIX)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

"Electricity can be generated by mixing salt water and fresh water in a controlled way. Salt water can be sea water and fresh water can be river water, so this technology can be used wherever a river flows into the sea. CAPMIX stands for capacitive mixing and is a new way of harvesting this potential power. The principal advantage of this technology is that the electricity generation is directly l ...
