The “Thuringian Water Innovation Cluster” (ThWIC), initiated by Friedrich Schiller University Jena in collaboration with the Fraunhofer Institute for Ceramic Technologies and Systems IKTS and Ernst Abbe University of Applied Sciences Jena, is a future-oriented cluster of the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology and Space (BMFTR) that develops solutions for the management of industrial water.
Bringing together 50 university and non-university research institutions, companies and associations, ThWIC unites cutting-edge research on key aspects of water use: novel analytical technologies and purification processes, data science innovations and sociological research.
ThWIC’s objectives are to create new approaches to secure water supply, establish an integrated water assessment framework, and make an impact on the economy and society.
ThWIC’s innovations include, among other things, the further development of oxidative processes for the removal of pollutants from wastewater. Here, advanced and established technologies are combined to achieve maximum purification performance. In particular, the physical phenomenon of cavitation is harnessed through various reactor designs and combined with other techniques.
On the one hand, the focus is on classic mixing processes, such as the introduction of ozone or the mixing of process fluids of all kinds; on the other hand, the focus is on the combination of potent oxidation processes, such as non-thermal plasma, with cavitation. Efficient operation and handling are at the forefront of this work.
