Kolisoon
| Output characterisation | |
| OUTPUT SENTENCE | An automated on-line self control device for the detection of E. coli |
| OUTPUT TYPE | prototype |
| WATER TOPIC | Quality of natural systems |
| KEYWORDS | E. Coli, self control device, automated, kolisoon |
| MARKET NEED TAILORED | The project Kolisoon aims at substantially contributing to the resolution of the E.Coli contamination problem by developing a new rapid analytical system for the measurement of E. coli concentration, such to make up for the insufficient timeliness of the traditional procedures. |
| OUTPUT DESCRIPTION | Kolisoon is an automated on-line self control device for the detection of E. coli |
| STATE OF DEVELOPMENT | Complete |
| INNOVATIVE ASPECTS AND ADVANTAGES | Rapid analytical system for the measurement of E. coli concentration, as opposed to traditional methods |
| INTELLECTUAL/INDUSTRIAL PROPERTY RIGHTS | ISRIM |
| TRANSFERABILITY | This technology could be used for any other similar treated wastewater effluents around Europe |
| POTENTIAL USERS/CLIENTS | Wastewater treatment plant operators, utilities, consultancy offices, local authorities and environment authorities. |
| Estimation of risks | |
| INNOVATIVE DISADVANTAGE | This is a new technology, and as such, has no long term feedback. |
| ECONOMICAL RISKS | Unknown |
| TECHNICAL RISKS | Unknown |
| MARKET RISKS | Unknown |
| SOCIAL RISKS | Absence of risk |
| Steps ahead | |
| NEXT STEPS TO ACHIEVE THE STATUS 'READY TO USE' | The device per se is ready to use and has been tested satisfactorily. Dissemination of information would be an asset. |
| TASKS TO BE PERFORMED | An extra round of information dissemination would help in knowing of the device. |
