Our expertise

The majority of the innovation budget went to projects that are already in the demo phase, namely the test setup for decentralised treatment technologies in the Kruitfabriek (former gunpowder factory) in Vilvoorde and a test setup for Bluebloqs. This is a circular water system for the collection, treatment and recycling of stormwater runoff in public spaces. The system uses a biofilter and in the pilot installation at our treatment plant in Aartselaar, we are investigating which forms of pollution this biofilter can remove. The project is a partnership with TU Delft and Field Factors and is funded by EIT Climate-KIC.
