The MELiSSA community organised its international conference in Toulouse with over 250 attendees. HYDROHM has presented the URIDIS technology as well as the activities in the SaRY project to this audience which has attracted considerable attention. It is clear that separate urine treatment will play an important role in future manned spaceflight, enabling not only water recovery but also…

In September, we moved to our new office: Hauwenhauwstraat 2B, 9810 Nazareth, where we have plenty of space to construct and operate pilot skids to demonstrate our electrochemical technologies.

Read more about our URIDIS technology in the case study report on socio-economic benefits from ESA Technology Transfers, made by know.space for ESA.

For the coming months, our two URIDIS pilots will be installed at two schools: campus Sint Hendrik (Leiepoort) in Deinze and College O.-L.-V.-ten Doorn in Eeklo.

Did you know that our URIDIS technology was initially developed for deep-space exploration missions? Watch the video with astronaut Thomas Pesquet explaining how space research is used to improve the quality of life every day on our Planet.

QinetiQ is proud to announce the start of the SaRY activity (Salinity Reduction of Yellow Waters), in the frame of the MELISSA project of the European Space Agency. This activity started on September 1 and will be performed together with the partner companies Hydrohm and Firmus France. A step further in water resource optimization and nutrient recovery, in space as…

Hydrohm and Pureblue Water team up in a CrossRoads2 Sustainable Energy project. This is a project within the European program Interreg Flanders-Netherlands and aims at stimulating collaborations between SMEs in Flanders and the Netherlands. Together, we will develop an electrochemical hydrolysis technology that enables cost-effective and energy-neutral decentralised water treatment. Furthermore, our technology creates the…

“We can’t stop producing waste. It’s the only resource that increases with population. Projects like A Place to Pee are a way to make the most of it.” Click here to discover our overseas adventure!.

On July 6th, the ‘Place to Pee’ was officially opened. The Place to Pee is the first demonstration of the URIDIS technology at full scale. It is placed on the recreational domain ‘De Blaarmeersen’ in Gent (Strandlaan 24, BE9000- Gent), and will be operational from July until the end of September. A public toilet container…

Hydrohm will work together with Ekopak in the framework of Electrodis, an open-call project by Vlakwa (Vlaams Kenniscentrum Water) and POM West-Vlaanderen. Electrodis aims to replace the use of chemicals for the cleaning and protection of water treatment membranes, by on-site electrochemical upgrading of RO-concentrate, which is currently a waste stream. More information can be…
