Our offers for the industry

With detect | remove | reuse to ecologically and economically compatible and sustainable process solutions.

We deliver modular and adaptive solutions for water without microplastics and, if required, extend the range of action to include micropollutants or inorganic parameters. At the same time, we deliver savings in energy, CO2, water, waste, as well as reduced operating and maintenance costs.

The multidimensional approach of microplastic-free production not only achieves measurable contributions to the UN sustainability goals, but also addresses tomorrow's requirements and regulations – today.

Wasser 3.0 PE-X® plant engineering offers:

  • Easy integration into existing processes.
  • Adaptive units.
  • Modular structure.

We combine:

  • scaling and growth.
  • transferability and maximum flexibility.
  • transparency and sustainability.

Details about the rental plant

  • Containerized plant for batch or continuous operation trials.
  • Capacity of reactor tank for MP removal: 250 L.
  • Capacity of steel tank for COD removal: 250 L (100 L clear water zone, 150 L fixed bed).
  • Dosing of Wasser 3.0 PE-X® and contact time in the fixed bed: adaptable and customized, depending on the specific requirements of the process.
  • Belt filter as separation unit.

Our pilot plants and rental model plants provide you with answers, especially regarding economic efficiency and ecological-social benefits. Our plants are modular, adaptable, and scalable and are assembled to fit your exact needs.

  • They allow maximum flexibility in terms of type and concentration of pollution and water type.
  • Our solutions are implemented as stand-alone solutions or add-ons to existing plants.
  • We work in a resource- and cost-oriented manner based on existing processes and existing infrastructure.

Finding solutions to your problems with feasibility studies

In our feasibility studies, your data, processes, and goals meet our interdisciplinary scientific expertise as well as the findings and results of our research and development work related to your process data.

We examine possible solutions to your processes regarding their basic feasibility. Within the framework of the feasibility study, potential solutions are analyzed, risks are identified, and prospects for success assessed. We give equal consideration to economic, ecological, and social parameters.

In our test center and service lab, we have a wide range of options at our disposal.

Our focus - your solution. Always in line with the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Your way to your Sustainability Upgrade of industrial processes

Impact of microplastics on wildlife

Microplastics are a pervasive environmental pollutant affecting wildlife, ecosystem, and human health. Microplastics can be consumed at all trophic levels and transmitted along the food chain, resulting in numerous long-term detrimental impacts on wildlife and ecosystems across the world. The amount of research investigating such impacts has been increasing over the years. We have gone through recent, state of the art research that has been done on microplastic impacts on wildlife in terrestrial, freshwater, and marine ecosystems, and summarize some of the main points in this blog. (Micro)plastic pollution is a complex global issue, affecting ecosystems, wildlife, and human health around the world. Understanding the inputs and fluxes of microplastic pollution across environmental compartments and ecosystems provides a critical foundation for effective policymaking and environmental management. By taking action against (micro)plastic pollution and transitioning towards a more sustainable and circular economy, numerous potentials and advantages can be identified, including measurable contributions towards achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Microplastics and Textiles – a state description

One of the main sources of direct microplastic entry into the environment is through the wearing and washing of synthetic textiles. This accounts for approximately 35% of the microplastics entering the global marine environment every year, amounting to between 200,000 and 500,000 tonnes. There are multiple pathways and options to target the unintentional release of microplastics from textiles, from the design through to the use and disposal, that must be considered. The European Commission has identified the textile value chain as a key priority in the EU Circular Economy Action Plan and proposed key actions and measures that are set to be finalized by the end of this year. This blog will provide an overview of issues related to the synthetic textiles, the proposed pathways to target unintentional microplastic release, along with the associated challenges that must be addressed.
