ABP and DCU mark World Water Day

THE country’s largest meat processor, ABP, is working closely with academics at DCU on improving wastewater treatment at its plants nationwide.

The innovative project, carried out in partnership with Enterprise Ireland, is focused on developing sustainable, environmentally friendly and cost-efficient ways of treating wastewater.

Prof Fiona Regan, project lead at DCU’s Water Institute, said the new technologies will identify nutrients that could be used as fertiliser. DCU are highlighting the project ahead of tomorrow’s World Water Day.
