Project description
Improving water purification and desalination processes to better access potable drinking water
One of the grand challenges of the 21st century is sustainably accessing drinking water and delivering usable water supply for sufficient sanitation and irrigation-based agricultural practices. A valuable element of water resource management systems, the information processing and monitoring of water filtration and refinement processes demands high accuracy, real-time standards and dependability. Several technical challenges must be overcome for an efficient and safe water plant control operation. Using advanced estimation methods and system engineering concepts, the EU-funded PURE-WATER project will develop modulation-based estimation algorithms for water applications that identify deteriorating operating conditions and smart sensors for integrated information processing with respect to water purification.
