Potable water from wastewater via nature based solution + UF in Kericho Kenya - Kericho Circular Water Ghent University
Due to population growth and increasing water usage, various regions worldwide become water stressed. Converting wastewater into potable and/or process water can play a crucial role in closing the gap between water demand and supply. In contrast to rainwater, wastewater is weather-independent, which leads to fewer fluctuations in the water supply. Moreover, water should never be treated as a waste product but reused as a resource in a ...

Soil microplastic pollution - assessing, testing and reducing the risks on soil health Ghent University
While the effect of plastic in marine ecosystems has been studied extensively, the knowledge on microplastic (MP) pollution in soil ecosystems is limited. We do not know if MP pollution affects soil ecosystem functions such as plant growth, microbial biomass and water permeability. Fundamental insights in their role on soil and plant health are missing as well. In this project we will therefore advance the field by working in a three step ...
