MEET THE TEAM

TRAMPOLINe- consortium has on board research groups that have gained expertise on fundaments of bacteria-electrode interactions, progressive reactor configurations and materials for application fields for METs (e.g. biological water/gas treatment, bioremediation, resource recovery, CO2 capture and utilisation and novel routes for the production of biochemicals), as well as industrial partners that are capable to transfer the MET technologies to the market.
