RHE-MEDiation · RHE-MEDiation - Responsive hub for long term governance to destress the Mediterranean Sea from chemical pollution

The RHE-MEDiation lighthouse aims at establishing a responsive hub deploying long-term governance centred on the mission to destress the Mediterranean Sea from chemical pollution, including peak concentrations in known HOT SPOTs. In particular, the most impacting components that currently affect Mediterranean resources and threaten its survival in the short term if no action is taken, like heavy metals, pesticides and PFAS & ""forever chemicals"", should be stopped and removed from the fresh and waste waters before they enter the sea. The RHE-MEDiation hub governance at the base of this transformation will a) deploy chemical pollution remediation technologies based on micro-algae solutions to enhance relevant TRL when integrated in existing water / wastewater treatment systems practises and assessed in their benefits with the involvement of the local communities
