Description

Quagga mussels wreak havoc at EPFL, clogging pipes and disrupting cooling systems, leading to overheated buildings and threatening sensitive experiments. These invasive mussels reproduce rapidly and are resilient, affecting not only EPFL but also other institutions and infrastructure around Lake Geneva. A new closed-loop cooling system is planned to combat this issue.
