Innovative and integrated technologies for the treatment of industrial wastewater

Objective

The main objective of the project is to investigate, assess and enhance the potentiality of promising technological options (i.e. technologies, processes and concepts) for the treatment of industrial wastewater with the specific aim to provide tailor-mad e solutions to end-users for a wide range of wastewaters. Such solutions will be essentially based on the optimised integration of the investigated options and on technological improvements with respect to treatment system components, operation and control.

Referring to the investigated options and the envisaged technological solutions, the project's goals are:
-Investigating and enhancing the performances of promising wastewater treatment options such as aerobic granulation, integrated advanced oxidation processes (AOP) and membrane-based hybrid processes
-Achieving fundamental and technological knowledge advancements necessary for advanced wastewater treatment application in different industrial sectors -Assessing the economic and environmental sustainability of promising wastewater treatment options
-Developing integrated tailor-made solutions for end-users in different industrial sectors
-Transferring the developed know-how to potential end-users inside and outside the project
-Favouring their actual implementation for enhancing the EU Water Industry competitiveness.

In order to achieve such goals, coordinated research activities will be carried out on selected options treating different wastewater. The experiences from such activities will be merged to define tailor-made solutions for end-users in different industrial sectors. A major goal will be the definition of treatment needs and framework conditions for a wide range of wastewaters based on the specific features of the options investigate d (i.e. aerobic granulation, AOP combined processes, membrane contactors, membrane chemical reactors).
