River, fjord & sea
We protect waterways for cleaner rivers & fjords .
Norway is a country that offers a lot of beautiful nature, including beautiful lakes, rivers and fjords. It is therefore important that we take care of our surroundings by preventing pollution from reaching these receptors.
Dredging in harbors, fjords and marinas is a common consequence of pollution, which is easy to avoid if you take it seriously. There are various methods for removing nitrogen, and Nordisk Vannteknikk is a significant supplier of equipment and expertise in this area.
Pollution in waterways
Norway is a country that offers a lot of beautiful nature, including beautiful lakes, rivers and fjords. It is therefore important that we take care of our surroundings by preventing pollution from reaching these receptors.
Dredging in harbors, fjords and marinas is a common consequence of pollution, which is easy to avoid if you take it seriously. There are various methods for removing nitrogen, and Nordisk Vannteknikk is a significant supplier of equipment and expertise in this area.
Marina
One thing that accounts for a large part of the pollution in fjords is the flushing of hulls from recreational boats, and now measures are required to stop the pollution of, among other things, the Oslo Fjord.
Nordisk Vanneknikk supplies a simple system that effectively cleans the wash water from flushing the undercarriage of boats. The system is designed for easy installation and maintenance-friendly operation, making it ideal for use on recreational boats. Particles and other pollution will be significantly reduced and the water can be safely discharged into the fjord without worries.
Runoff from agriculture
Another problem that is often mentioned is runoff from agriculture. Nitrogen from artificial fertilizers largely ends up in rivers and fjords, which leads to algae blooms and major changes in the ecosystem.
Fortunately, there are good methods for removing nitrogen. A combination of chemical and biological water purification has shown good results in limiting nutrients from process water and wastewater. By limiting the nutrients that flow into the fjords, we will be able to maintain a good balance in nature.

Filter sausage
Pollution of fjords and harbors often starts further up the rivers and waterways. A simple and quick solution to prevent much of the pollution from reaching the fjords is to implement measures in rivers and streams.
Nordisk Vannteknikk has developed a solution for filtering particles such as PFAS. The solution is a filter sausage filled with charcoal that can be placed directly in the river. The charcoal absorbs particles in the water that would otherwise reach the fjord.
The filter sausages are elastic and shape according to the landscape in which they are placed. In addition, they can be supplied with straps for easy placement by helicopter for placement in areas with limited access.
Control container
In order to prevent discharges into rivers and waterways, it is important to know what kind of pollution is in the water. The control container from Nordisk Vannteknikk is a simple and cost-effective way to do just that.
The control container is a simple solution for monitoring discharges to vulnerable receptors. The system is a space-saving container solution that contains a number of measuring instruments, including conductivity, turbidity and pH. The container also comes with a flow meter, automatic water sampler and automatic logging solution, as well as other instruments as needed.
The solution is intended to be both flexible, space-saving and neutral. It can therefore be delivered in a container down to 4 feet if desired, and can be stained in the desired color or clad in wilderness panels.
