Join Toksika Hackathon – Innovate for Cleaner Soil!
Published on: 14/03/2025
TOKSIKA specializes in biological soil treatment and invites innovative proposals to accelerate the cleanup of petroleum-contaminated soils while preserving the delicate balance of microorganisms essential for the process. Contamination with petroleum products poses a significant environmental threat, disrupting ecosystems and slowing natural recovery efforts. TOKSIKA challenges you to design an efficient and environmentally friendly solution to enhance bioremediation without harming the microbial communities driving the cleanup.
This hackathon’s challenge focuses on: accelerating biological soil treatment for petroleum-contaminated (especially long-chain petroleum hydrocarbons) sites while preserving the viability of the microorganisms responsible for breaking down pollutants. By addressing this challenge, participants can contribute to a cleaner, healthier environment and create scalable solutions for soil remediation efforts, not only in Lithuania but across Europe and beyond.
TOKSIKA IS LOOKING FOR:
- Development of Bio-Stimulants or Nutrient Additives
- Microbial Consortia Engineering
- Optimized Environmental Parameters for Bioremediation
- Encapsulation or Protective Coating for Microorganisms
- Enzyme-Based Solutions
