E-limina HC (Eni-Linking Isotopic and Microbial Investigation to aid Natural Attenuation on Hydrocarbons) project aims to investigate the possibility of using chemicals analysis techniques, such as: compositional and isotopic analyses, in combination with microbiological and geochemical analysis, in order to better characterize the biodegradation potential of soils and waters contaminated by petroleoum hydrocarbons. This investigation techniques are essential in monitoring degradation processes such as MNA (Monitored Natural Attenuation) or induced by bio stimulation (Enhanced Attenuation).

AMIIGA (Integrated Approach To Management Of Groundwater Quality In Functional Urban Areas) is an Interreg Central Europe project focused on integrated assessment, remediation and management strategies, as well as on the development of tools for characterization/prioritization of groundwater contamination sources. More information about the project can be found here.

The NAURU project, financed by Milano Municipality within Expo 2015 actions, focuses on water supply improvement. The NAURU project aims to start the exploitation of GW resources in the central plateau of Nauru island making available an additional water resource and avoiding the saltwater intrusion problem. The purpose is to provide Nauru with new infrastructures for the groundwater exploitation and directives for its sustainable management. More information and materials available here.

Project funded by Lombardy Region and MIUR (Ministry of Instruction, University and Research). Collaboration with Tethys Srl and Politecnico di Milano’s Energy Department, in order to implement and monitor a ground source heat pump plant providing heating, cooling and ventilation to a piglet room. A set of different energy and subsoil temperature parameters was monitored to numerically model the environmental impact on groundwater system. More information and materials available here.
