OBJECTIVES
- Integration individual low cost, sustainable and biologically based water sanitation technologies in multiple modular configurations
- Demonstration across 10 countries in 4 continents the long term viability of innovative, modular and sustainable solutions for wastewater treatment in real-environment and contribution to stimulating economic growth, business and job creation in the water sector both inside and outside Europe
- Eco-design and optimise the proposed solutions to increase the sustainable performance of the water sector through an optimised environmental performance
INNOVATIVE ASPECTS
- Conforming the dierent INNOQUA technologies on the basis of a modular system, and using in different combinations through different scenarios
- Increasing EU innovation potential by offering a modular solution that integrates innovative technologies in new ways and making possible the accessing to the new markets
- Use of Lumbrifilter, which is an innovative technique effective in removal of solid and particulate matters
- Reusing of purified water for irrigation, watering, aquifer recharge and domestic applications
TECHNOLOGIES
- Assessment and validation the effective performance of the integrated “Lumbrifilter and Daphniafilter” system for wastewater treatment
- Bio-solar purification (BSP)
- Monitoring and Control through embedding sensors, software and connectivity in a modular system
- LED UV
IMPACTS
- Enhancing confidence among end-users and stakeholders regarding the long-term sustainable benefits of the system in a range of realistic applications and locations
- Generating LCA positive impacts regarding chemical and resource use
- Reduced stress on and solution for the EU aging water infrastructure
- Reduced release of untreated/poorly treated wastewater and avoid CO2 emissions equal to 625 tons/year
- Improvement sanitation and health conditions in both rural and underdeveloped regions
