Your challenges

Micropollutants present diverse and evolving challenges across the water cycle.

Complex and Diverse Contaminants

Micropollutants include drugs, pesticides, hormones and chemicals - each requiring specific detection and treatment systems. Our technologies are adapted to the various forms and concentrations of micropollutants.

Low Concentration, High Impact

Even in minute quantities, micropollutants can disrupt aquatic ecosystems and accumulate in the food chain, making early detection critical.

Regulatory Pressure and Public Awareness

Tightening regulations and rising public concern demand proactive monitoring and transparent communication.

Technological and Financial Constraints

Advanced treatment technologies can be costly and complex to implement, especially for smaller communities and facilities. We are proud to have developed solutions that can be adapted to your local needs.

FAQs

What are micropollutants?

Micropollutants are contaminants present at very low concentrations (micrograms to nanograms per liter) in water. Despite their trace amounts, their persistence and toxicity cause serious environmental and health concerns.

Heavy metals

Heavy metals such as lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic are toxic even at low levels. They originate from industrial discharges, mining activities, and agricultural runoff.

Organic micropollutants

These include pharmaceuticals, hormones, pesticides, personal care products, and industrial chemicals. Many of these substances are resistant to conventional treatment and require specialized removal processes.
