Projects supporting Policy Area Nutri actions
Sustainable Silage
The project Sustainable Silage will focus on reducing silage effluents and nutrient leakages in a full cycle of silage production.
Visit the project at Interreg Central Baltic Programme Library.
BalticReed
BalticReed aims at recycling nutrients from eutrophicated coastal waters of the Baltic Sea to land. At the same time, the project promotes the sustainable utilisation of reed biomass as a raw material for diverse purposes, for example replacing peat.

StoPWa
StoPWa tackles contaminated stormwater with a filter made of construction and demolition waste (CDW).

Trust Alum
The project Trust Alum – “Building trust in target groups for ALUM treatment – an effective, yet misunderstood method for water quality improvement” tackles historical phosphorus deposits in lakes. The aim is to build trust towards ALUM water treatment by using expertise and experiences of a Swedish partner which has more than 60 years of experience and ~250 positive application examples. ALUM has never been used in Baltic countries due to identified barriers: lack of know-how, skepticism about outcomes, belief it is too expensive, and fear of aluminum itself.

Supported by Nature
The project Supported by Nature – Nature based solution learning sites for a sustainable Baltic Sea aims at increasing the understanding of Nature Based Solutions (NBS) and how they contribute to improved environmental conditions for the Baltic Sea with the long term goal that a better knowledge foundation will lead to more frequent and adequate use of NBS in planning processes, as well as land- and seascape management.

GYPREG
The project Tackling agricultural phosphorus load by soil amendments – GYPREG aims to increase the uptake of gypsum treatment of agricultural fields that allows to reduce phosphorus losses from agriculture. Gypsum has the potential to remarkably cut phosphorus losses from agriculture and to help EU member states to fulfil their obligations towards the EU WFD and MSD, and HELCOM BSAP, and to clean up their coastal waters.

City Blues
The project Bluegreen nature-based solutions for climate change adaptation and citizen well-being – City Blues aims at supporting adaptation to negative effects of climate change and to improving green and blue infrastructure of densifying cities through integrated nature-based solutions (NBS) for urban flooding and stormwater management.

CiNURGi
The project Circular nutrients for a sustainable Baltic Sea Region – CiNURGi links bioeconomy around nutrient recycling to a circular economy for the Baltic Sea Region. This will be done by exploiting synergies between the use of biomass resource streams coming from agricultural, municipal and industrial sources to create fertilizer products that will be recycled back to primary production.

Clean Baltic Source
Clean Baltic Source – Wastewater Treatment in Lviv and Volyn Oblasts
Funded by he Swedish Institute’s SI Baltic Sea Neighbourhood Programme in 2023.

WaterMan
In the project WaterMan, public authorities and water companies model strategies to reuse water and recirculate retained water, e.g. for industry and agriculture.

ReNutriWater
The ReNutriWater project helps public authorities develop action plans to recover wastewater, and reuse it for cleaning, watering recreational areas and plants as well as domestic purposes.

NURSECOAST-II
The NURSECOAST-II project guides public authorities, water companies and tourist businesses on how to reduce seasonal increase in wastewater production and nutrient discharges in touristic areas.

BaltCOP
The Baltic Catchment Officer Project (BaltCOP) focuses on testing the innovative catchment approach to support and drive restoration work and reduce nutrient runoff across catchments in Estonia, Latvia and Sweden.

WSSP
The project promotes a practical and resource-wise Watershed Safety Plan (WSSP) operational model that enables municipalities, water utilities and other relevant actors to reduce the amount of diffuse pollution from reaching the Baltic Sea. The goal is to create a generally applicable watershed-based water management model that improves water quality and residents’ well-being in the central Baltic Sea region.
