RELATED PROJECTS
- A team from the e-PLASCOM and eb-POLICOM research groups, alongside the Barcelona Research Center in Multiscale Science and Engineering (CCEM) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), is involved in the EcoPolyRub project in partnership with the Centre Català del Plàstic (CCP). The initiative aims to create innovative elastomeric materials based on recycled tyre rubber, enhanced recycled plastics, and natural rubber for high-performance mechanical and thermal applications.
- Un equip de recerca de la UPC, integrat pel CommSensLab-UPC i el Remote Sensing Lab (RSLAB) de la Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), juntament amb l’Institut d’Estudis Espacials de Catalunya (IEEC), ha participat en el projecte AI4EO, amb l’objectiu d’impulsar solucions i posar en pràctica eines d’intel·ligència artificial aplicades a dades d’observació de la Terra en diversos casos d’ús sobre el territori català.
- The e-PLASCOM research group at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is developing a solution based on biodegradable sodium alginate and gelatin aerogels for the purification of non-potable water and desalination using solar energy.
- A research team from the Group of Environmental Engineering and Microbiology (GEMMA), and the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), has collaborated with Raimat on the development of an innovative water treatment system based on natural processes, requiring minimal, almost zero, energy consumption and generating no waste. The project has enabled the Lleida winery to take another step in its sustainability strategy and improve its environmental efficiency through the creation of wetlands in the middle of its vineyards, purifying 80,000 litres of water per day while also enhancing the biodiversity of the surrounding area.
