With the revised EU Urban Wastewater Treatment Directive, many wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) will finally be required to monitor microplastic levels – but only twice per year for those serving > 150,000 population equivalents (p.e.) and only once per year for smaller WWTPs. The question remains – is this sufficient? The answer: NO! How do we know this?

More and more droughts, more and more pollution, more and more corrupt exploitation. Our water is more endangered than we realise. There is bad news wherever you look. But in between there is a glimmer of hope – an encouragement. A new non-fiction book ‘Rebellin des Wassers’ will be published in October and is the first book by Dr Katrin Schuhen. More in our blog.

Get up in the morning, drink a glass of tap water, make coffee or tea, take a quick shower, brush your teeth, do your laundry, cook and so on. We need water - for everything. Water is a fundamental and natural part of our lives. Without clean water, we cannot live, we cannot survive. But the image of crystal clear water is becoming clouded. More and more pollutants, more bad news. How should we deal with water as the basis of life in the future?

On the trail of the WHY.... The world is becoming ever more dynamic. The role and function of education and training (school, work, everyday life) is becoming increasingly important. The aim is to offer complexity-reducing transfer tasks and provide assistance in order to be able to argue and act on the basis of facts in the search for answers to pressing questions. This is all quite complex and requires some optimization and adaptation. A look behind the scenes of WASoMI.

World Water Day celebrates water, teaches us about the importance of water in different contexts, and guides our thoughts and raises awareness of the more than 2.2 billion people worldwide who live without access to clean water. World Water Day is about raising the visibility and recognizing the value of water as well as taking action to protect water and tackle the global water crisis.

As an interdisciplinary team of experts on a mission for water without microplastics, it is our pleasure and concern to share our knowledge and make it accessible to the next generation in the simplest and most appealing way possible.
The basis for FREIRÄUME is provided by the scientifically sound digital-real educational space WASoMI. Our chemists, environmental scientists and sustainability experts have contributed their knowledge to it. Thanks to the support of the Postcode Lottery participants, we were able to implement the FREIRÄUME project last year and take the wealth of knowledge about water without microplastics to the next level.
