Project 2: Development of water purification technologies
Goal: To develop water purification technologies for wastewater treatment with constructed wetlands and for defluoridation of community water supplies in Northern Tanzania.
The project would like to ensure that people are informed of the potential of technology to solve water quality challenges, especially in Northern Tanzania. Therefore, P2 is planning to implement actions on Sanitation (through Constructed Wetland Technology) and Water purification (Defluoridation of Water supplies) by implementing technologies that are adapted to local contexts and that are sustainable. These actions are done through building capacities to future generations under PhD studentships.
