The EiCLaR project is composed of 18 partners from Europe and China and coordinated by the Ecole Centrale of Lyon. EiCLaR will develop scientific and technical innovations for in situ bioremediation technologies that will be directly developed into industrial processes for the rapid, efficient, cost-effective treatment of a range of environmental pollutants (chlorinated solvents, heavy metals, hydrocarbons). These technologies (Electro-Nanobioremediation, Monitored Bioaugmentation, Bioelectrochemical Remediation, and Enhanced Phytoremediation) will expand their range of applications to industrial sites that contain complex, high concentration pollutant mixtures. EiCLaR's environmental sustainable and low impact methods will provide researchers, site managers, developers, procurers, service providers, technology providers with the tools to manage contaminated soil and groundwater, and improve the environmental quality throughout EU and China.https://cordis.europa.eu/project/id/965945
