Wastewater pollution is a major environmental challenge worldwide and can contribute to water quality degradation and harmful algal blooms, threatening aquatic ecosystems and biodiversity. This project aims to address these issues by developing the Flow Nature Bio Ecosystem (FNBE), a modular nature-based system designed to treat and repurpose wastewater using natural biofiltration processes. Our team designed the FNBE, a floating device that uses tropical aquatic plants and beneficial microorganisms to remove pollutants and suspended solids from water through natural biofiltration and can be customized to users’ needs.

After installation, water quality will improve, reducing excess nutrients that contribute to algal blooms. This supports biodiversity and aquatic ecosystem health. This system also enables treated water to be reused for irrigation, landscaping, and agriculture, reducing reliance on energy-intensive treatments. Ultimately, the FNBE provides an eco-friendly wastewater treatment approach that demonstrates the potential of nature-based solutions for sustainable water management that is suitable for domestic, commercial, and community applications.
