Greetings from the Environment Week in Berlin! 🌍🌿 On 4 and 5 June the Federal President and the DBU Deutsche Bundesstiftung Umwelt (DBU) are hosting the Environment Week in the park of Schloss Bellevue. #TUBraunschweig is also represented, for example by the Institute of Sanitary and Environmental Engineering (Prof. Thomas Dockhorn) with two projects at two stands: 🥬💧 In the HypoWave+ project, funded by the Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung, researchers have developed a concept for vegetable production with treated wastewater in #hydroponic systems. It is currently being put into practice on a large scale for the first time. 🌱♻️ The Precoat Filter project is testing a technology that can remove dissolved trace substances and very fine particles, such as microplastics, from the effluent of municipal #wastewater treatment plants to a greater extent than is currently possible. The aim is to reduce selective inputs of environmentally relevant pollutants into wastewater treatment plant effluent and their potential negative impact on the aquatic environment. 📸 Institute of Sanitary and Environmental Engineering/TU Braunschweig #FutureCity #Sustainability #Braunschweig #Niedersachsen
