Workshop on Resource Recovery by Phototrophic Organisms
Join us on 19 May 2025 for a workshop on resource recovery using phototrophic species during the IWA Resource Recovery Conference 2025. Organised by IHE Delft and TU Delft, this workshop will explore various resource recovery pathways involving phototrophic species, while also addressing the techno-economic challenges that hinder the commercialization of these technologies and proposing potential solutions.
About the workshop
Phototrophic organisms offer a sustainable approach to recovering nutrients and high-value products from wastewater. Participants will gain insights into the resource recovery potential of photogranules, purple bacteria, and algae, along with an overview of the industrial products that can be derived from both pure species and mixed cultures. Furthermore, the workshop aims to bridge the gap between academia and industry by discussing the techno-economic evaluation of the biorefinery concept, including various scale-up strategies.
Registration
This workshop is exclusively open to registered conference participants. Registration closes on 1 May 2025. Find more details here.
