## Description

FiW e. V. (Forschungsinstitut für Wasserwirtschaft und Klimazukunft) is a research institute associated with RWTH Aachen University, focused on water management and climate-related challenges. Its work brings together research, practical application and knowledge transfer across water, energy and resource management. The institute’s specialist areas include wastewater technology and process development, energy technology and sector coupling, water management and climate adaptation, and resource management and international cooperation.

FiW offers research and development, consulting and knowledge transfer, and access to semi-technical pilot facilities. Its topics include wastewater treatment and drainage systems, resource recovery, digitalisation, energy systems, sustainable energy processes, bioeconomy, climate risk management, water quality, resource efficiency and sustainable development. The institute also contributes to education and professional training.

One example of its project work is HoWaMan, which addressed flood risk management in semiarid and arid regions. The project focused on challenges in Iran’s Kan River catchment, where intense, irregular rainfall can cause sudden flash floods.
