No more microfibres

PlanetCare wrote: Every time we wash our clothes – especially if we wash synthetic fabrics, we release millions of microparticles into the world water supply, that eventually ends up in the ocean. But it doesn't have to be that way. Because when we install our filter technology into the next generation of washing machines and when consumers put this filters into existing washing machines, we capture those microfibres before they're ever released. So that they can be disposed at safety and responsibly... Source: EIT Climate KIC's ClimateLaunchPad

NuReCo wrote: Currently, wastewater treatment companies (wwtc) use technologies to catch suspended particles (solids and molecules i. E. Nutrients, organic matter, fibres, and phosphate) included microplastics that are not yet neither environmental nor economic sustainable . Nureco’s team has developed a device, the mbb-fox® system, that makes this catch sustainable. Since, it does not need pre-treatments neither addition of extra chemicals other than the flocculant, and it generates reusable residues. Its technology is based on a unique mixing mode that facilitates the aggregating properties of a flocculant that clumps together suspended particles present in the sludge to form strong floc...

Oacity - Green City Oases

Oacity wrote: As a team, we responded to the climathon challenge to create sustainable green oasis in cities. Our aim with that is to transform existing urban areas for more sustainable places to improve air quality and promote biodiversity. However, in order to achieve our aim, we have to involve and empower inhabitants. Nowadays inhabitants feel the need to be part of the development and decision making. Of the neighborhoods and feel themselves owner of their places. With this development we came up with the solution to provide a program with modular elements for outdoor space. In the beginning we will aim for inhabitants of rental houses. These inhabitants often don't feel connected with the outside area of their building... Source: EIT Climate KIC's Climathon
