2 EIP Water Action Group overview The below pages provide an overview of the focus of all 25 Action Groups and 11 FP7 funded demonstration projects, organized per EIP Water priority area. Contact details for all Action Groups are available on the online Market Place:

3 P1 - Water re-use and recycling AG132 - RESEWAM-O - Remote sensing for water management optimization Develop an integrated toolbox for water scarcity detection, diagnostics and DSS for water re-distribution in water scarcity areas. AG045 - Industrial Water Reuse and Recycling Development of different recycling concepts; standardizing different water qualities; standardize treatment technologies in modular approach. DEMOWARE (InnoDemo) Collaborative programme of demonstration and exploitation, using nine existing and one greenfield site; create a unified professional identity for the European Water Reuse sector. DemEAUmed (InnoDemo) Demonstrating and promoting innovative technologies, for an optimal and safe closed water cycle in Euro-Mediterranean tourist facilities.

4 P2 - Water and waste water treatment AG108 - ARREAU - Accelerating Resource Recovery from Water Cycle Commercialize value chains for resources from the water cycle, in particular iron from drinking water production, phosphorous from waste water and cellulose from waste water. AG110 - MEET-ME4water - Meeting Microbial Electrochemistry for water Commercialize microbial electrochemical, zero energy technologies to treat urban and industrial wastewater and recover/synthesize. AG118 - MSWTP - Modular low-cost concept for WWTPs design and build Proof of concept of modular low cost concept WWTP in real scale demo sites in different countries by BIOMETAL DEMO (InnoDemo) Demonstrating feasibility of the application of novel biotechnologies for the treatment of metal polluted wastewaters with development of two pilot plants.
