 A new technology for municipal and industrial wastewater treatment with low environmental impact An Italian research institute has developed a new technology for wastewater treatment, characterised by high biomass concentration and negligible sludge production. When applied to industrial wastewater, it allows integrating biological degradation and chemical oxidation, which is useful to make biodegradable refractory contaminants. The institute is interested in technical cooperation with companies producing wastewater or developing solutions for textile and tannery wastewater treatment. (Ref: 07 IT SUTC 0JEZ - 11/01/2008) Innovative wastewater treatment system for heavy metals, removing metal ions by inducing sedimentation, without the use of any chemicals An Israeli SME, expert in the application of breakthrough and innovative technologies and solutions for industrial wastewater treatment, purification and recycling has developed a line of innovative patented systems designed to remove heavy metals including copper, zinc, chromium, cadmium, and nickel from manufacturing discharge waters without the use of chemicals, which enables a factory to reuse the water it employs in manufacturing. The company is seeking partners for joint ventures. (Ref: 07 IL ILMI 0JFT - 03/01/2008) Revolutionary cyanide removal system for treating industrial wastewater - absolute decontamination from cyanide without use of chemicals An Israeli leading-edge SME has developed an innovative patented system designed to remove cyanide from manufacturing discharge waters without using chemicals, which enables a factory to reuse the water it employs in manufacturing. The company seeks partners for joint venture. (Ref: 07 IL ILMI 0JBN - 03/01/2008) Advanced microbiological solutions for unconventional industrial wastewater treatment (high-pollution, hard-to-degrade substances, etc.) An Italian SME focusing on chemical and biological technologies to eliminate pollution from wastewater has developed specific and innovative microbiological treatments for waters that cannot be drained by traditional WWTPs due to high pollution rate. This is accomplished by means of microbiological products, to be balanced with the chemical section of WWTPs, in order to obtain a treatment that meets the customers’ needs. The company is looking technical cooperation on specific requirements. (Ref: 07 IT LADA 0JDS - 02/01/2008) New technology based on bio-flotation for sewage treatments and water recycling An Italian research centre has developed a system based on bio-flotation to treat liquid industrial wastes containing detergents and dyes. The system uses a specific ejector allowing preparation of the appropriate conditions to biologically treat pollutants. This new method produces very little sludge with comparison to existing technologies, and is low-cost. The centre is looking for companies interested in applying this method to their industrial processes.
