Researcher: Sustainable agricultural water management and reuse through the application of nature-based solutions (NBS) via EURAXESS

Universita' di Bologna

Bologna, Italy 🇮🇹

Offer Description

The aim of the research is to develop knowledge and innovation for a broader application of nature-based solutions (NBS) aimed at improving integrated water resource management in agriculture and promoting the transition toward the principles of the circular economy and increasingly sustainable agricultural systems. The study will analyze, for various types of NBS, the hydraulic and hydrological functioning mechanisms, as well as the pollutant removal processes, in order to optimize their performance in terms of resource management, storage capacity, and natural purification for different types of contaminated waters, including domestic wastewater and agricultural runoff. Particular attention will be given to the potential for water reuse in agriculture, with the goal of producing effluents suitable for irrigation.
