Development of innovative water and wastewater treatment systems for sustainable urban water metabolism

Research Project Outline

In order to improve the sustainability of safe water supply, it is essential to establish new water metabolic systems that incorporate advanced water and wastewater treatment systems. In this project, we will integrate nano- and bio-technologies such as membrane separation and toxicogenomics to develop autonomous decentralized water and wastewater treatment systems as well as health risk assessment technologies for micropollutants and pathogenic microorganisms. In addition, we will evaluate the feasibility of practical use of newly developed water and wastewater treatment systems.
