CLEANWATER
CLEANWATER is a research project working with solutions to remove micro-pollutants and micro-plastics from wastewater.
CLEANWATER has special focus on reducing the input of micropollutants and microplastic into the Baltic Sea by exploring, developing and comparing new eco‐technological approaches.
Project goals:
- Develop eco‐technological solutions for removing micropollutants and microplastic from contaminated water
- Determine the dominant source, wastewater or stormwater, for various micropollutants and microplastics
- Develop testing methods for analysis of xenobiotics and microplastics in storm‐, leachate‐ and wastewater
LiqTech has developed a membrane bioreactor (MBR) wastewater treatment system with flat sheet membranes with the purpose of removing micro-pollutants, micro-plastics and xenobiotics.
