Institute

The Institute for Water Quality and Waste Management (ISAH) is situated at the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Universität Hannover and assigned to the Faculty of Civil Engineering and Geodetic Science. It is subdivided in the four departments of municipal water management, waste management, hydrobiology, and water resources management.

Departments

Since the foundation in 1939 the ISAH developed to one of the leading and internationally accepted institutes in its research field. The list of renowned former members of the ISAH, who are in leading positions at national and international universities, associations and companies, and numerous awards to members and graduates of the ISAH illustrate this.

We thank all visitors for their interest in our research and look for to meeting you again in 2011
