Schuwacht produces 3 million m3 of drinking water per year through infiltrated surface water. The visit will involve presentations, discussions, Q&amp;A and a tour. A glance at a totally different &amp; innovative way of filtration! Membrane filtration is not a new technique. However, it has never been applied on a large scale to oxygen-free groundwater to make drinking water. Oasen took the first steps in the development of this technology in 2005. Meet Professor Walter van der Meer, professor of Innovative Water Purification Processes at TU Delft. Professor Van der Meer presented One Step Reverse Osmosis as a complete purification concept. This means: do not use membrane filtration as one of the purification steps, but as a technology on which the entire purification process is based.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>(12.00) Return to Amsterdam for an exchange lunch with Dutch companies and organisations.
