The invention enables the purification of industrial and household waste water to be carried out much more efficiently and cost effectively in a space four times as small.

Earlier this year, Van Loosdrecht also received the Lee Kuan Yew Water Prize 2012 during the Singapore International Water Week and in May, the first sewage water purification plant to use this technology was opened in Epe in the Netherlands.
