Demonstrating resource recovery from domestic wastewater for use in agriculture.
Publications
On this page you find an overview of the documentation that has been generated within the framework of the Run4Life project. This includes general information about the project and the concept of resource recovery from source-separated domestic wastewaters. For example, publicity materials such as brochures and posters, but also specific project results that have been presented and published can be found. Furthermore, the public deliverables are added here, most of these will become available at the end of the project.
As Run4Life advances new items will be added on a regular basis, so make sure to visit this page again soon.

Run4Life workshop “Decentralized treatments for resource recovery from domestic wastewater” at the IWA EcoSTP, June 24th 2021
Run4Life partners Nicolas Morales of Aqualia, Grietje Zeeman of LeAF, Paraschos Chatzopoulos of Desah and Beatriz Medina of Water, Environment and Business for Development (WE&B) engaged participants in the challenges and opportunities encountered in resource recovery from wastewaters and food waste, a crucial aspect of the transition to a circular economy. Also, Juan M. Lema Rodicio, Professor Emeritus of the Universidad de Santiago de Compostela, partner of the Run4Life consortium, was awarded with the highest recognition granted by the Politecnico di Milano: the Honorary Degree ‘Laurea Magistrale ad Honorem’. More information can be found here, including access to the presentations.
For attendees the online recordings of the workshop are available here. Use your code choose “explore” or “live sessions”, choose 24-6 and workshop #8.
