During this action, the project partners performed all necessary steps for a good technical preparation for the upcoming phases: construction, installation, small-scale test and full-scale demonstration.
Linnaeus University performed the verification of the chemical, biological and physical status of the bay of Malmfjärden. The project also investigated possible beneficial uses of the sediments from Malmfjärden bay.
Environmental licenses and/permissions were prepared and submitted to the environmental authorities and a control program was made to monitor all relevant parameters.
The planning and preparation included all processes of public tendering and purchase of equipment and materials to start the main activities of the project.
Dredging equipment will be constructed to suit the project purpose and objectives.
To know how to fully use the equipement in full scale, we will first test the system in small scale.
Based on the knowledge of the small scale test, we will perform full scale dredging and treatment.
The focus for monitoring and evaluation is mainly to follow up the effects of the dredging activities.
How to disseminate the technology and results of Life SURE.
LIFE SURE will ensure that the solutions developed in the project can be used throughout the EU
