Food and drink production releases various pollutants into water, air and soil, including newer, less understood ones like microplastics and pesticide residues. PURE-FOOD studies these pollutants across six real production sites — from breweries to dairies — and tests improved detection and treatment methods.
1) Assess pollution across six food and drink sub-sectors. 2) Develop harmonised monitoring methods for known and emerging pollutants. 3) Demonstrate real-world treatment solutions at case-study sites. 4) Support healthier diets and improved environmental sustainability standards.
