Deliverable on new biofouling prevention concepts

Microbial growth is an important topic in industrial water systems. Problems like the formation of
biofouling on pipes and membranes reduce the performances of the systems and microbiological
pollutants limit the use of water. Prevention technologies like Denutritor and Nanosilver decrease
the use of chemicals for water conditioning and cleaning, and increase the possibilities of water
recycling and re-use.
This report describes laboratory tests to evaluate the potential of the use of Denutritor for
biofouling reduction and microbial growth in waste water from the chemical industry and rain
water for application in food industries, and tests to evaluate the impact of Ag nanoparticles on
biological processes in effluent treatment for the paper industry. Denutritor pilot tests in chemical
and food industry were started based on the results of these laboratory tests.
