Water Efficiency in European Urban Areas (WE@EU)
Start date: Jul 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,
WE@EU is a coordination action born from the initiative of a wide range of actors from five different European regions that have a true awareness on problems related to availability of water in sufficient quantities and adequate quality in their regions. Taking into account that over 80% of the population is expected to be living in urban areas in EU countries by 2050, pressures on the availabilit ...

Citizens' observatory for coast and ocean optical monitoring (CITCLOPS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
In the marine environment, anthropogenic pressures on resources and non-anthropogenic causes may create harmful conditions that affect human society. Harmful algal blooms and habitat destruction are examples, which pose serious human-health threats and severely affect numerous industries, causing annual economic losses in the tens of millions of euros, in the form of reduced sales, diminished tour ...

“MFC4Sludge”: Microbial fuel cell technologies for combined wastewater sludge treatment and energy production (MFC4SLUDGE)
Start date: Aug 1, 2013, End date: Jul 31, 2015,
“MFC4Sludge” is a research project that aims to develop, according to participating SME needs, an innovative solution consisting of a MFC coupled to a hydrolytic-acidogenic anaerobic digestion (HA-AD) to treat sewage sludge from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The technologies to be developed herein will not only improve existing sludge treatments in environmental terms (even avoiding sludge ...

Advanced data management and informatics for the optimum operation and control of wastewater treatment plants (DIAMOND)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
"Nowadays most of the EU countries treat practically the totality of the volume of urban waste water (WW) generated. However, a deep look at the performance of most of the existing wastewater treatment facilities (WWTP) evidences that significant steps forward can still be given in terms of effluent quality, process robustness and operational costs.One of the main technical limitations for optimiz ...

ADVANCED CONTROL SOLUTIONS FOR WASTE WATER TREATMENT (ADD CONTROL)
Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2011,
"Current procedures for the design of WWTP controllers are usually based on long and very expensive experimental studies. In this respect, the availability of WWTP simulation tools specific for control design would allow automation companies to establish and complement experimental procedures with enhanced procedures based on mathematical modeling and simulation. In addition, WWTP simulation softw ...
