Our students of the course Sustainable Water Management took part on a field trip with course instructor Prof. Zoltan Illes on February 17, 2025, and got an inside look at one of the most efficient wastewater treatment plants in the world, the Vienna Main Wastewater Treatment Plant Simmering! Not only do they clean the water before releasing it into the Danube, but they also generate electricity from water outflow and produce biogas from sediment.
Last Tuesday, the 21st of March, our students ran a sustainable food roundtable. This discussion, moderated by our MESPOM student Jocelyn Wong, sought to explore what sustainable food means in a Viennese context. It did so by drawing together people working in this field from in and around Vienna.
