Live and online - book the Wasser 3.0 team for your event
Our heart beats for water without microplastics and micropollutants, our expertise lies in the areas of
- Microplastics, micropollutants and other organic and inorganic contaminants in the water cycle;
Challenges and technologies of water purification in the 21st century; - Design of organization and business model taking into account the triple bottom line: equality of people, planet and profit (greentech meets social business);
- Sustainability, circular economy, blue economy, ESG, SDG, impact measurement and other transformation concepts from the user's perspective.
Seminars, workshops and lectures for clean water and new entrepreneurial action
Transparent communication about what we do, why we do it and how we do it is part of our educational mission.
Formulating answers to current questions that are suitable for everyday use while remaining scientifically sound is part of our DNA.

We need more people asking questions
Social challenges require society as a whole and the leverage of each individual and all stakeholders in order to advance real solutions.
Only those who know processes and products and understand the sense and non-sense of action can actively participate and take forward-looking action. This applies not only to industry and politics, but also to us consumers.
We provide you with bundled knowledge. We provide answers and ask questions ourselves.
Further information
Learn more about innovative technologies and processes for microplastic detection, removal and reuse.
In the knowledge database section, you will get an overview of common questions and answers about water without microplastics and micropollutants.
We conduct research in (inter)national projects, develop solutions for water without microplastics, carry out feasibility studies and implement educational projects.

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.

Under the auspices of the EU Green Week, the Water Innovation Europe Awards 2024 were presented on the first day of Water Innovation Europe 2024. At the ceremony with more than 260 participants, five innovators and their groundbreaking solutions in the water sector were the center of attention. And we were right in the middle of it all!

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.
