Water Dialogues - What’s underground? Undervalued Groundwater

We have all been students at some point. In fact, we are still all students. The study of natural phenomena is not complete, and the study of human societies and how we govern Earth’s resources is more important than ever. SIWI’s new webinar series Water Dialogues reminds us of why this is so important. In the first episode, on 11 January, Stockholm Water Prize laureate John Cherry ...

Treatment of Radioactive Wastewater Plants

Radiation therapy produces wastewater, which can contain considerable amounts of radioactivity. Up to 90% of the dose administered can enter the wastewater. With conventional methods, the load of the wastewater is reduced through radioactive decay (natural decomposition of the isotope), an often complex and very expensive process. The BioChroma method was developed by us as an alternative. It ...
