Project BIOTREAT: Biotreatment of drinking water resources polluted by pesticides, pharmaceuticals and other micropollutants

2011-01-01 – 2014-12-31

Abstract

The aim of BIOTREAT is to develop new technologies for bioremediation of drinking water resources contaminated with micropollutants. Micropollutants are organic pollutants that occur in water at extremely low concentrations ranging from 0.1 to 10 μg/l. The basis of the proposed technologies is bioaugmentation, which is the introduction of specific degrading microorganisms or microbial consortia into existing sand filters.
