RELATED PROJECTS
- The Environmental Engineering (ENMA) research group leads the WhATTer project with the aim of developing an innovative and sustainable solution for the treatment of textile wastewater through an electrochemical/alkaline electrolysis system that allows for simultaneous hydrogen production. The project is carried out in collaboration with the Textile Technology (TECTEX) and Polymeric Materials and Textile Chemistry (POLQUITEX) research groups at the facilities of the Institute of Textile Research and Industrial Cooperation of Terrassa (INTEXTER) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC).
- The Innovation in Materials and Molecular Engineering – Biomaterials for Regenerative Therapies (IMEM-BRT) research group at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – BarcelonaTech (UPC), in collaboration with the Institute of Chemical Research of Catalonia (ICIQ), has developed polymer resins derived from plant-based materials to reduce the dependence of 3D printing on fossil fuel-based resins.
- The Centre for Technological Risk Studies (CERTEC) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – BarcelonaTech (UPC) is coordinating the European Program for Wildfire-Prepared Communities (FIREPRIME), a project designed to develop tools and services for wildfire prevention in Europe, with the goal of improving safety in the wildland-urban interface by actively involving the community in its own protection.
- The Resource Recovery and Environmental Management (R2EM) of the Center for Research in Multiscale Science and Engineering (CCEM) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is leading the HARMONIZE project, which focuses on the recovery and valorisation of ammonia from urban and industrial waste streams. The project is part of a larger initiative, MemTecWare, coordinated by the UCM.
