WE ACT FOR WATER WITHOUT
MICROPLASTICS AND MICROPOLLUTANTS

Microplastics and micropollutants pollute our waters. They destroy the balance of our ecosystems and pose an enormous risk to our health. They have been detected numerous times. From the Arctic ice to the deep sea. From the Danube to Mount Everest. In animals, to human intestines, placentas, and most recently in blood, lungs, and breast milk. Every day, the microplastic burden on our ecosystems and bodies is increasing. Until now, there are no efficient technologies in place to prevent this.

WE WANT TO CHANGE THAT!

HOW SYSTEMATIC ACTION LEADS TO BETTER WATER QUALITY

Das ist Wasser 3.0 - das Unternehmen für Wasser ohne Mikroplastik und Mikroschadstoffe
Anyone can become part of the solution

Donate to Wasser 3.0.

Non-toxic materials together with a simple equipment design enable the clumping and skimming of microplastics and micropollutants. In combination with microplastic detection and reuse, we enable the greatest possible efficiency in water purification, resource conservation and circular use of waste and wastewater.

We are thus making measurable contributions to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

GreenTech as a Social Business

It only works together.

We work in a highly motivated, interdisciplinary team and in diverse collaborations and partnerships. As an independent non-profit company, we take a systematic approach to tackling micropollutant and microplastic pollution of waters at a global scale.

At our company, innovative water technology goes hand in hand with applied basic research and transformative education like our educational tool WASoMI and outreach initiatives.

... BECAUSE A HEALTHY LIFE NEEDS WATER WITHOUT MICROPLASTICS AND MICROPOLLUTANTS.

These are our contributions to achieving the UN Sustainable Development Goals

Through the cross-sector, cross-stakeholder, non-profit business model and the tireless commitment of the team around Dr. Katrin Schuhen, multiple synergies take the place of silo boundaries: Not only research and development, technology and innovation, and education are thought about and tackled together, but equally economic, environmental, and social levers for water without microplastics and micropollutants.

We deal with many types of water, from wastewater to seawater to drinking water and groundwater, but also with the different pollution scenarios. From general microplastics and micropollutants to different classes of substances such as (water-)soluble polymers, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and in particular.

Our solutions are always developed from a sustainability perspective. From the initial investigation to the finished system. In the final step, you receive a fully Sustainability Upgrade. Future-proof. Traceable. Adaptable.

Outlook for World Water Day

In order to draw society's attention to the great importance of water and water availability, the UN decided in 1993 to declare March 22 every year as World Water Day. This is to both celebrate the importance of water and draw attention to the ongoing water and sanitation crisis. The motto of this year's World Water Day is "Accelerating Change together." Since every day is World Water Day for us, there is also a competition in addition to the outlook.

Partners in Mission: Nordic Water

With Nordic Water GmbH from Neuss, we were able to gain a strong cooperation partner for our pilot project at the Landau-Mörlheim sewage treatment plant, which supported us with technical components. You can find out in our blog how we approached the cooperation for water without microplastics and micropollutants and what results we were able to achieve.

News about Micropastics Detection

The detection of microplastics is of crucial importance when it comes to assessing the risk potential and the entry routes of microplastics into the environment. A standardized detection method is therefore essential to collect comparable and reliable data on microplastic pollution and to identify hotspots. This blog gives an overview of our current study and the most important results.
