The collaboration between academic and industrial partners through the WE Africa project has led to successful joint research and development projects, addressing critical water challenges in Ghana. Researchers from Kwame Nkrumah University and industry partners like 3ESL have developed a new membrane filtration system designed to treat contaminated water for rural communities. Initial implementations have shown a 90% increase in water quality and accessibility. This project has drawn the attention of local governments, prompting discussions for scaling the technology across other regions.
