| contents | <p>This factsheet was created for the Horizon Europe project WaterProof and informs on the relevance of wastewater treatemnt for environment and health, steps of wastewater treatement, advanced treatment methods, sludge generation and use, challenges in light of climate change and for resource recovery. It also informs on European legislations and solutions offered by the WaterProof project.</p> <p>WaterProof (urban Waste and water Treatment Emission Reduction by utilizing CO2 for the PROduction Of Formate derived chemicals) aims at developing an electrochemical process that converts CO₂ emission captured from consumer waste incineration and wastewater treatment facilities into formic acid to be used in valuable green consumer products such as cleaning detergents and the tanning of fish leather apparel. Additional products of the electrochemical process are peroxides that can be applied to remove pharmaceuticals and pesticides from wastewater. Furthermore, formic acid is used for the generation of acidic deep eutectic solvents (ADES), that can be applied to recover precious metals from wastewater sludge and incineration ashes. As the electrochemical process uses renewable energy, it contributes to a clean water cycle with zero-emission.<br>WaterProof enables the closing of the waste(water) carbon loop and the shift from fossil to renewable carbon sources. It hereby supports the transition towards a climate-neutral Europe and an effective and truly circular economy.</p> <p>More on the project can be found here: https://waterproof-project.eu/</p> <p>Funded by the European Union.
