WembraneX is an Italian start-up born with the ambition to make a significant contribution to UN Sustainable Goal 6 - Ensure Access to Clean Water and Sanitation for all by 2030.
The invention relates to the water purification sector; it refers to a phytodepuration module and to a plant including this module. The objective is decontamination and recovery of drinking water from contaminated springs and wells, thermal, rainwater, wastewater and industrial wastewater. Phytodepuration tanks are known which use ferns to decontaminate water, but have the limits of requiring large surfaces and / or long treatment times.
AIS aim is a robotized inclinometer measurement in standard inclinometer boreholes. The deep measurements have multiple applications, including: evaluating the rate of deep-seated ground deformation in landslide areas, evaluating the volume of deep-seated landslides and assessing landslide hazards. The AIS is composed by an electronic control manager, an inclinometer probe and an electric motor equipped with a high precision encoder for handling and continuous control of the probe in the borehole.
Geopolymers belong to the class of chemically bonded ceramics: they are synthesized at low temperatures and are eco-friendly, as besides the low consolidation temperature required by the process they can be produced from secondary raw materials and industrial waste of various kinds, thus reducing the energy demand and the environmental impact of the entire production cycle. Materials such as fly ash, steel mill slag, biomass ash, sludge and silt, extractive residues, mineral and ceramic powders, organic or inorganic waste fibers, plastics, etc.
