Adapted and Near-Natural Treatment Concepts

Developing and emerging countries are addressing water supply and sanitation challenges with nature-inspired solutions

Simple and robust membrane processes such as gravity driven membrane for water supply and related water kiosk concepts are key activities in this field. We support actual implementation in developing countries. We also work on managed aquifer recharge.
