Water is the source of all life. Yet clean water is becoming an increasingly rare resource in many parts of the world.
In the course of laboratory research and tests under practical conditions carried out over several years in collaboration with partners from science and industry, UFZ scientists have succeeded in demonstrating that waste water can be made hygienic for irrigation purposes using simple technology. After a general introduction, the DVD provides information in the form of menu po

A large number of sites around the world have been contaminated on a large scale with harmful substances. Europe alone is known to have over 20,000 of these ‘megasites’. In many cases, the contamination means that the sites can no longer be used. Led by the UFZ, scientists are working at specific locations to develop potential solutions for the revitalisation of contaminated megasites. This DVD (with background text, but no sound) uses animations, photos and diagrams to give a fascinating in
