LIFE smallWAT is funded by the European Commission's LIFE Programme.

In particular:
✅ Advanced constructed wetlands with the implementation of:
🔹Bioelectroactive substrates
🔹Forced aeration systems
🔹Smart sensors
🔹Digital control systems
✅ Filtration columns for nitrogen and phosphorus recovery
✅ UVC-LED disinfection technologies

💧LIFE smallWAT focuses on the development of a sustainable and innovative wastewater treatment solution for small and remote areas, integrating nature-based systems and bioelectrochemical technologies.

🔍 Besides, the LIFE smallWAT solution will also be evaluated in Almería (Spain), Orby (Denmark) and Saint-Joseph (Martinique), and will be replicated in France and the Canary Islands. (+)

📊To ensure that the solution is truly environmentally friendly, LIFE smallWAT plans to conduct a Life Cycle Assessment. This will enable the design of the technologies developed to be optimised, taking into account various factors, including the #environmental component. (+)

💧This initiative, led by Aqualia and involving partners from France, Spain and Denmark, will create technologically advanced solutions, including intensified #wetlands, filtration columns and UV-LED disinfection systems, for wastewater #regeneration and #nutrient recovery. (+)

🌍Today is #WorldWetlandsDay, one of the most important elements in LIFE smallWAT.

LIFE smallWAT is an European project whose objective is to develop an innovative, versatile and resilient #wastewater treatment system for small areas of fewer than 2,000 population equivalent. (+)
