CENIRELTA, Cost-Effective NItrogen REmoval from waste water by Low-Temperature Anammox. (CENIRELTA)
Start date: Jul 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,
Background
Eutrophication is a major issue throughout the European Union. It is caused by high loads of nutrients, mainly phosphate and nitrogen, being discharged to water. It results in reductions of biodiversity, and a decline in the ecological quality of surface waters. Furthermore, it can lead to blooms of toxic algae.
Over the years, the phosphate l ...

Managing Adaptive Responses to changing flood risk in the North Sea Region (MARE)
Start date: Dec 31, 2008, End date: Dec 30, 2011,
Recent flooding has demonstrated the vulnerability of North Sea Region. Municipalities have an urgent need to reduce flood risk, but lack a framework and the resources. The overarching aim of MARE is to enable widespread implementation of local adaptive measures that mitigate flood risk. The project is focusing on developing a transnational methodology to implement urban Flood Risk Management (FRM ...

Efficient membrane filtration units with integrated High Frequency Backpulsing device (HI-FRE)
Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2011,
Membrane filtration has become a key technology for many environmental and industrial applications. Yet in spite of several cleaning options at hand, fouling phenomena such as cake layer formation and pore blocking still limit its performance. The objective of this project is to overcome these limits by developing, a high frequency back-pulsing device, integrating it into membrane filtration sys ...

Connecting 3 pSCI around the Hoeksche Waard for Root Vole (Vlietmonding)
Start date: Feb 23, 2006, End date: Dec 23, 2008,
Background
The island of Hoeksche Waard in the south-west of the Netherlands contains three pSCIs: Haringvliet, Hollandsch Diep and Oude Maas. All three are important areas for root vole (Microtus oeconomus subsp. arenicola). This subspecies is endemic to the low-lying parts of the Netherlands. It is estimated to be a relic of the Ice Age and is found in ...
