On Thursday, 18 September 2025, the NYMPHE project will hold a dedicated technical workshop during RemTech Europe in Ferrara, Italy, titled: "Innovative Microbial Solutions for Environmental Remediation: Technologies and Strategies from the NYMPHE Project"
This session will showcase the bioremediation technologies developed by the NYMPHE project partners, aimed at exploring and demonstrating the potential of bioremediation for restoring contaminated soils and waters.
The event will bring together project partners, researchers, stakeholders, and practitioners to share scientific and technical outcomes, and to gather feedback on the feasibility and implementation of nature-based remediation strategies.

Date: Thursday, 18 September 2025
Time: 09:00–13:00
Location: Ferrara, Italy (RemTech Europe 2025)
Format: on-site / online
