Organisation: AquaMem Tech S.r.l. ( DeepTech SME from Calabria, Italy). Core Technology: BOA_SKELETON (TRL 7) — an autonomous, solar-powered aquatic floating drone featuring in-situ smembrane filtration ey Innovation: Conducts automated, volumetrically accurate sampling and pre-concentration of microplastics, nanoplastics, and emerging pollutants (PFAS, pharmaceuticals) directly on-site. It eliminates heavy manual sampling, cuts operational costs (OPEX) by up to 80%, and delivers digital, georeferenced data ready for ISO/IEC 17025 laboratory validation.
Target Project Missions:
Protection of Mediterranean marine, coastal, and freshwater ecosystems.
Monitoring and mitigation of plastic/microplastic pollution in ports, estuaries, and protected areas.
Blue Economy, smart water management, and compliance with EU water directives.
