Project summary

Galiza (Minho, Lima, Ria Vigo) and develop new analytical methods, innovative technologies of remoção em ETARs, ecotoxicological and predictive nova ferramentaments for EPs that present the potential for ecosystems. Vai contribute to melhorar a qualidade da Água and fornecer informação for implementação da DQA. Enquadra-se no eixo 3, priority 6F, seeking to reduce the environmentais riscos associated with EPs contributed to uma gestão joint de espaços transfronteiriços of high value. The Results will be transferred to public institutions involved in implementing DQA and technology companies
