      Projects of the Institute for Ecopreneurship

      Our highlights

      • Minimising combined sewer overflow

        Michael Thomann’s team is using online sensors and modelling to exploit existing wastewater collection and treatment infrastructure.

      • In the mix

        Thomas Gross and his project team is combining biochar and compost to rehabilitate degraded soils.

      • How well do industrial companies know their wastewaters?

        A tool developed by Miriam Langer’s team is helping industry better answer this question.

      • Let the sun shine in

        Markus Lenz's team is ensuring sustainability of new photovoltaic materials.

      • A systemic approach to safe water

        Maryna Peter and her project team are preventing disease through handwashing technology, behavioural science, effective management and long-term relations...
