מה אנחנו עושים
What we do
Purification projects
Our purification systems engineer natural processes to purify even severe contamination that cannot be treated in any other way. Our understanding of natural purifying processes make it possible for us to offer creative solutions that are aligned with nature and the environment.

מרכז מידע
Information Center
In this database you will find articles describing studies we conducted, case studies and extensive material in the field of water purification by the constructed wetland method that we have developed and improved during the last 25 years.
Purifying dairy farm wastewater using the natural biological system
Wastewater from dairy farms is known in Israel and abroad as a polluting factor that requires special treatment. For this purpose, a reform was enacted to act as leverage for adapting this field to contemporary environmental requirements. Notwithstanding sizable investments by the government and efforts of the dairy farmers, many dairy farms are still not ready for the new regulations.
Constructed Wetlands and Reed Beds
The constructed wetlands and Reeds Beds purifying method, is a branch of the scientific field of Phytoremediation. This field deals with water and land purification using plants and the microorganisms related to them. Constructed wetlands mainly purifies water, and, in some cases, sludge.
Treatment with mineral oils and phenols using aquatic plants
Natural biological systems are used more and more in purifying "hard" wastewater containing phenols and hydrocarbons. The path was paved by studies funded by the US Army and the large gas companies 10-15 years ago. Today the US army is gradually transferring all its facilities to vegetated systems, as are the companies Texaco and others.
