Název projektu:
PS - FP7 BIOREMED - Efficient on-site remediation technology for the elimination of soil contaminants, especially chlorinated hydrocarbons (11 HU 5010 3M2F)
Popis:
A Hungarian research centre intending to submit a proposal to the FP7 Research for the benefit of SMEs, inviting partners to develop an efficient on-site remediation technology for the elimination of soil contaminants, especially chlorinated hydrocarbons.
Councils, state institutes or estate developers are awaited which have land that need remediation which could serve as a test site. Local authorities responsible for giving permission for different land remediation methods are also awaited.
The Hungarian research centre is inviting councils, state institutes or estate developers and local authorities responsible for giving permission for different land remediation methods to the FP7 Research for the benefit SMEs (FP7-SME-2012) proposal.
In the EU the soils total sums up to 4,146,242 km2, thus to more than 95 % of the total surface area. Soil is a non-renewable resource and needs to be managed sustainably before it is too late for soil to recover. In the new millennium, the recognition that soil is as essential to human well being as air and water induced stricter soil protection legislation and the creation of more effective enforcement mechanisms in Europe and worldwide. This trend had a major impact on the European soil remediation market and sharply increased the demand for effective services to manage contaminated sites.
Among the different types of contaminations, chlorinated hydrocarbons represent the bottle neck of the remediation process. Chlorinated solvents such as perchloroethylene (PCE), trichloroethylene (TCE), vinyl chloride (VC), and many other organic contaminants including polyaromatic hydrocarbon compounds (PAHs) and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) pose serious threats to environment and human health. Nevertheless, nor biological remediation neither chemical treatment can completely eliminate these pollutants. A highly effective, on-site method for the remediation of sites contaminated with chlorinated hydrocarbons is highly needed.
The proposed in-situ remediation technology combines effective groundwater circulation treatment with stimulation of site specific remediation cultures, chemical treatment and continuous monitoring of microorganism activity by advanced sensor technology.
The proposed method includes complete assessment of the contaminated site, installation of the state-of the art ground water circulation wells, on-site fermentors, and chemical treatment facility. The addition of matched microbe strains to the medium loaded into bioreactors will intensify the resident microbe population's ability to break down contaminants. Its combination with the appropriate chemical method will lead to several process advantages such as increased rates of pollutant biodegradation, shorter treatment times, and thus lower cost for the total remediation process. The proposed approach will target the decomposition of chlorinated hydrocarbons, representing one of the most difficult pollution in the remediation process, but will also be able to decompose other pollutants, such as hydrocarbons, including natural oil and, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), solvents and detergents.
As a result of the project, a complete BIOREMED system will be installed at a demonstration site to be remediated.
Technical Specifications / Specific technical requirements:
Call title: Research for the benefit of SMEs
Call identifier: FP7-SME-2011
Probable publication: July 2011
Percentage of EU funding: 50%-100%
Councils, state institutes or estate developers are awaited which have land that need remediation which could serve as a test/demonstration site for the project. The company is looking for local authorities responsible for giving permission for different land remediation methods and would actually be willing to participate in the project to validate the technology from a legal aspect.
