Objective
NAMOR project pioneers a next-generation water treatment solution that combines the co-cultivation of microalgae and bacteria with advanced membrane filtration in a modular plug-and-play system. This innovative approach enables decentralized treatment of diverse water and wastewater streams and supports a sustainable and resilient urban water cycle. NAMOR's hybrid system is designed for maximum adaptability, with demonstrations across three different climate zones — high, medium and low temperatures — under different lighting conditions to ensure robust performance in a variety of environmental scenarios. The system will deliver high quality, fit-for-purpose effluents with minimal energy consumption and environmental impact, improving urban water management. It will integrate seamlessly into existing centralized water networks and enable local, site-specific treatment. In addition, the biomass produced will be efficiently valorized for nutrient and energy recovery, contributing to a circular economy. At the heart of NAMOR’s innovation is the development of a digital twin model equipped with a sensor network and predictive analytics to monitor and predict system performance in real time. This is complemented by a Decision Support System that optimizes energy efficiency and maximizes water and nutrient recovery, tailored to the specific local requirements. NAMOR also places great emphasis on citizen engagement and social acceptance of decentralized water solutions. Through an inclusive, participatory approach, citizens are actively involved from planning to implementation. Social science methods will assess public opinion and willingness to adopt these systems, while targeted policy recommendations will encourage greater public participation. NAMOR is also researching the global market and regulatory landscape to find ways to adapt its solutions to international contexts, thus positioning itself as a pioneering solution for future urban water systems worldwide.
