ResourcesPoolsafe’s
A novel swimming pool water treatment for the detection and elimination of excess cyanuric acid
Start Date: 01 July 2014 – End Date: 30 June 2016
Poolsafe’s aim was the development of an effective and efficient solution to the cyanuric acid (CYA) problem, prevalent in swimming pools, through the development of a soft sensor to monitor the levels of CYA and other pool water quality parameters, as well as a simple, cost-effective method for degrading excess CYA, using photocatalysis.
Through the development of the novel sensor and the degradation of CYA, POOLSAFE reduces the environmental impact of swimming pool maintenance by eliminating the need to periodically replace the pool water, providing improved water quality and safety to bathers.
TelLab’s contribution:
TelLab led the Dissemination and Exploitation Work Package which included the preparation of an Exploitation Plan for the use of project results, the management of the background and foreground Intellectual property related to the project and the preparation of a Dissemination Plan. As part of the Dissemination Plan, TelLab was responsible for the creation and updating of the project website, Linked in and Twitter pages, attendance at trade fairs and the creation of a commercial brochure.
