Water treatment

Technical and economic study of materials to be valorized and technologies adapted to the Walloon context (organic and mineral materials).

For better water management, buried infiltration systems temporarily store rainwater and gradually infiltrate it into the soil. This project aims to study the durability of these systems and the efficiency of filters to avoid clogging and reduce maintenance costs.

Reusing treated wastewater for agricultural irrigation can support agriculture in Wallonia. SPGE and SWDE will launch pilot projects, requiring a comparative study with other EU countries to assess technical and regulatory risks, thus establishing a methodology for these 'ReUse' projects.

Develop a methodology for the circularity of water, its energy and recoverable materials. This methodology will be used to identify projects for improving water management within companies. In particular, it will be used and tested by low-carbon and circular economy referents.
