The EU could reuse 6 billion cubic meters of #wastewater for irrigation each year.

Our scientists co-authored an article for @NatRevEarthEnv explaining how.

Europe is faced with more & more droughts.

Water 💧 is an invaluable resource that we can’t take for granted.

Today’s new 🇪🇺 standards for the safe reuse of treated wastewater in agricultural irrigation will be extremely beneficial for our farmers.

Continuous mutations of SARS-CoV-2 pose challenges for current detection tools.

But now all #COVID19 circulating variants can be more accurately detected in clinical & wastewater samples

Thanks to our new universal detection method!
