Water Technology
The research group water technology aims at development of applicable technologies for sustainable water (re)use in a combined fresh/saline delta. Current research themes include:
- Recycling of surface and process water for industry, agriculture and aquaculture. Examples are reuse of cooling tower blowdown, rainwater runoff and industrial wastewater.
- Recovery of valuable content in waste water, like nutrients.
- Monitoring and control. Examples are monitoring and control of water filtration systems and control of biofouling in water systems with ultrasound.
