			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Turkish company, active in environmental technologies, has upgraded a modular system for grey water treatment with improved efficiency. The treated water cannot be used for drinking but for domestic and / or industrial purposes. The method provides up to 50% savings in water, and drops water treatment costs significantly. The Turkish company offers establishing grey water treatment systems by signing commercial agreement with technical assistance with potential partners.</p>
<p>Treating grey water at the place offers various advantages:<br />
- Helps preventing the natural water resources as treated grey water will be used for domestic purposes (such as reservoirs) instead of high quality water.<br />
- If the grey water is treated sufficiently before discharging to the sewage system, less treatment volume will be necessary, resulting in dropping the investment costs for the waste water treatment plants built by the municipalities.<br />
- Grey water treatment plants will decrease the usage of drinking water amount resulting in dropping costs for water distribution network. It will also save the fresh water resources.<br />
- Treated grey water is a water source to be used for garden irrigation and watering the plants especially in dry climates.<br />
- Treating grey water enables 50% saving in water.<br />
- Grey water treatment plants require less energy in compare to conventional / black water treatment plants as the pollution load is smaller.<br />
- Grey water treatment plants emit less Carbon in to the atmosphere.<br />
- Grey water contains less Nitrogen in compare to black water. Based on the given fact it is easier treating grey water.<br />
- Grey water is a good source of fertilizer source if used as irrigation water.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A German company offers a multi-phase process for digestate treatment that requires little volume and storage capacity, thus significantly reducing transport costs. The process results in high quality fertilizer and re-useable effluents. Applications are e.g. in wastewater and waste treatment and in biogas industry. Industrial partners are sought for commercial agreements with technical assistance.</p>
<p>A German company, specialised in solutions for water and wastewater treatment, has developed a modular concept for the treatment of fermentation residues. The effluent is of such high quality that it can be readily disposed or even re-used. The concentrates are re-usable or can be marketed as a nutrient-rich fertilizer.<br />
In this multi-phase separation process, the plant sizes range between 20,000 and &gt; 500,000 t/a digestate with a plant footprint starting from 250 m².<br />
The process includes the following steps.<br />
1. Press screw<br />
2. Flocculation<br />
3. Decanter<br />
4. Ultrafiltration<br />
5. Reverse Osmosis</p>
<p>Solid-liquid-separation is carried out with press screw and decanter. Liquids are treated with ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. The process results in solid as well as liquid manure and clean water for direct discharge to receiving waters or for re-use purpose.</p>
<p>Type of partner sought: Industry, e.g. engineering companies, plant and equipment manufacturers, value-adding distribution companies</p>
<p>- Specific area of activity of the partner:Wastewater treatment, biogas plant operators</p>
<p>- Task to be performed by the partner sought: Integrate process in their equipment and offers.</p>
<p>All relevant know-how will be transferred by the German company.</p>
<p>Partners could be e.g. engineering companies offering services in the field of wastewater treatment and biogas, interested in expanding their portfolio. They should be able to provide installation and after sales service. The relevant know-how will be transferred by the German company.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A Romanian company has developed an installation for treating industrial waste water that can be used in industrial fields as: petrol and gas extraction, refinery. The main advantage of the technology is that it combines unique methods for hydrocarbon removal from waste water by combining separation, sedimentation, treatment, flotation and used water filtration phases. The company is looking for technical co-operation and commercial agreement with technical assistance.</p>
<p>Romanian company has developed an installation for treating industrial waste water that can be used in industrial fields as: petrol and gas extraction, refinery.</p>
<p>The technology relates to a performance pilot installation that separates, treats and filters water with the purpose to reintroduce it in the production process or to overflow treated water in natural emissaries. The most important steps in volved in the process are: separation of free hydrocarbons, chemical treatment and micro flotation of hydrocarbons, settlement, advanced filtration of waste water and treatment of residues resulted in the process.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>An Israeli SME has developed a technology that substantially increases the efficiency of wastewater treatment.The company will market proprietary biomass-carrier knit-fabrics stretching media and support-devices that will substantially increase the water treatment efficiency of existing and specifically-designed WWTP while decreasing energetic-demand for treatment. The company seeks partner to jointly construct, experiment and commercialize the proprietary technology the company has developed.</p>
<h3>Innovative Aspects</h3>
<p>The Israeli companys biomass-carriers media offers a substantially greater biomass growth surface areas per given volume of media when compared to other commercially available biomass-carriers. Unlike commercially available biomass-carriers, when integrated into stretching-relaxing devices, the Israeli companys biomass-carriers replenish at-will the growth surface areas, thus providing continuous logarithmic growing, highly metabolic active, microorganisms.<br />
The Israeli companys technology is easy to implement in presently operating WWT-facilities, large as well as small. The technology saves energy by providing just the right growth conditions for the biomass without energy wasted on excess aeration and water circulation.</p>
<h3>Partner expertise sought:</h3>
<p>- Type of partner sought:A company in the field of water treatment involved in the field in the scope of planning, construction, maintenance and/or equipment supply of large and small water treatment facilities.<br />
- Specific area of activity of the partner:Water treatment facilities (including municipal, industrial wastewater as well as recycling grey water).<br />
- Task to be performed by the partner sought:Jointly with the Israeli company to construct and test devices based on the Israeli companys technology.<br />
To commercialize devices based on the Israeli companys technology.</p>
