Objective MetaPure is a new bloremediation technology, based on a dried plant biomass, for the removal of heavy metals from (waste) water. The objectives of this research proposal concern the applications of MetaPure in the following real cases Remediation of heavy metals from high salinity water solutions Remediation of heavy metal from solutions containing a cocktail of heavy metals Remediation of Mercury for recycling process The objectives will be achieved by: Research of the biomass metal chemical binding groups and mechanism Optimization of the filtration parameters Optimization of incineration conditions of the biomass, for metal recovery Fields of science natural scienceschemical sciencesinorganic chemistrytransition metalsengineering and technologyenvironmental engineeringwaste managementwaste treatment processesagricultural sciencesagricultural biotechnologybiomass Programme(s) FP4-ENV 2C - Specific programme of research and technological development in the field of environment and climate, 1994-1998 Topic(s) 02020301 - Clean technologies Call for proposal Data not available Funding Scheme EAW - Exploratory awards Coordinator CSD Dr. Verleger Ingenieur- und Naturwissenschaftler GmbH EU contribution No data Address 3,Sachsenwaldstrasse 12157 Berlin Germany See on map Total cost No data Participants (2) Sort alphabetically Sort by EU Contribution Expand all Collapse all AWATEC Abwassertechnik GmbH Austria EU contribution No data Address 7,Kaplanstrasse 3430 Tullin See on map Total cost No data Isorad Ltd Israel EU contribution No data Address 81100 Yavne See on map Total cost No data
