REvivED water is a European Union funded innovation project which aims to contribute to overcoming the drinking water challenge by establishing electrodialysis (ED) as the new standard for desalination of seawater. Safe, affordable and cost-competitive drinking water will be produced; with significantly reduced energy consumption compared to state-of-the-art Reverse Osmosis (RO) technology. The expected results and impacts are: 1. Water desalination applications with significant reduction of the energy consumption compared to current state-of-the-art energy technologies. 2. More cost efficient seawater and brackish-water desalination as well as tap-water softening. 3. Contribution to the sustainable provision of safe and affordable drinking water all over the world, covering applications ranging from large industrialised plants to small, stand-alone systems for developing countries. |
AQUATT'S ROLE | |
AquaTT’s role is to promote the project and its objectives, employing a range of communication and dissemination tools; and to support all project partners to carry out scientific dissemination of REvivED water in order to foster awareness and transfer results for creating impact. AquaTT will also provide support to the management of the project. We are the leaders of Work Package 8, ‘Dissemination and exploitation of results’ and contributors to Work Package 1, ‘Project management and coordination’. |
