The SYMBIOREM project (Symbiotic, circular bioremediation systems and biotechnology solutions for improved environmental, economic and social sustainability in pollution control) aims to use the bioremediation capabilities of microorganisms, microbiomes, proteins, plants and animals to remove pollutants from the environment. 

This webinar will highlight one of the project’s core ambitions: demonstrating how different bioremediation technologies perform under real conditions. This goes beyond assessing individual solutions and examines how they work in combination, revealing where synergies and enhanced pollutant‑removal effects emerge. This work also investigates how recovered resources can be transformed into circular products, and how viable business models can be co‑created to support future deployment.

Participants will learn:

• How SYMBIOREM technologies were tested in combination, enabling the removal of multiple pollutants and demonstrating symbiotic effects observed across soils, sediments and water systems.
• How recovered materials can be transformed into circular products, and how utilisation pathways are identified through collaborative innovation with project partners and stakeholders.
• How a circular bioremediation tool is being developed, integrating site data, technology performance and design criteria to support real‑world decision-making.
• How business models are being co‑created with stakeholders, enabling scaling, replication and long‑term sustainability of SYMBIOREM’s circular bioremediation systems.

This webinar offers practical insights into SYMBIOREM’s technology testing results, early circular product concepts and ongoing business‑model development. It will highlight advances for future large‑scale, circular bioremediation.

It is the final webinar in the SYMBIOREM webinar series, Strategies for a cleaner future.

This event will take place in English at 10:00 to 11:30 CEST on 10 June. Registration and programme.
