Title: Ecoremediation - Systems and Methods for
sustainable Environmental protection The problem the
inventor(s) wanted to solve: Ecoremediations (ERM) comprises methods of protection and
restoration of the environment by means of natural processes existing in
ecosystems. ERM technologies combine natural, co-natural and
artificial ecosystems for protection
of environment. Description: A holistic approach to management of catchments
areas prevails, which envisages consideration and integration of all
stressors within a hydrological defined watersheds
instead of monitoring of individual sources. The first step in all activities
is identification and prevention of further pollution and the next step is
establishment of original state of the environment where ecosystems exist in
a dynamic balance. Presentation: This
includes point and non-point pollution sources. It is obvious that it would
be difficult to ensure the setting up of expensive high technology solutions.
Application of ERM methods offers the opportunity of fast adaptations to new
legislative requirements. At the same time it represents an economically
viable solution in less developed regions and for different pollution sources
(agriculture, landfill leachate, motorway run-off)
where treatment by devices that require complex operating processes and a
constant source of energy is virtually impossible. Fields of
application: Agriculture, protected areas (Natura 2000),
water supply, waste management, economy, long life learning, education, sustainable
development. Advantages Due to its characteristics
(undemanding technology, low financial inputs and environmental
friendliness), the proposed technology can be applied throughout various
region, as the problems related to surface water quality are serious and
existing everywhere. Stage of
