The responsible parties around the Baltic Sea are urgently looking for sustainable concepts to treat the water from PFAS hot spots and from the Urban WWTPs. The project facilitates cooperation between environmental authorities, universities, consulting engineers and treatment solution suppliers (SMEs) to develop, test and demonstrate sustainable solutions. The cooperation will hereby increase the use of green technologies.
The technology concepts in focus for the project are emerging treatment technologies like granular activated carbon (GAC) and ion exchange resins (IEX). Sustainable disposal of the collected micropollutants from GAC and IEX, with the decomposition of the substances, is a key issue in the project.
