- The Center for Industrial Equipment Design (CDEI-UPC) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is participating in a cross-border project aimed at promoting the use of advanced digital technologies in viticulture in regions on both sides of the Pyrenees. The initiative seeks to improve specialist training, technical advice and decision-making in vineyard management.
- A team from the Resources Recovery and Environmental Management (R2EM) group, of the Barcelona Research Center in Multiscale Science and Engineering (CCEM), at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), is participating in the MagNa project, which is developing an innovative system to recover magnesium from the brines generated by the seawater desalination process. The recovered materials will be used for industrial purposes and will help reduce Europe’s trade dependence.
- A team from the CATMech at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) has created a computer system that rapidly calculates the CO₂ balance of agricultural and forestry estates. The project, developed within the framework of Agrixels, is coordinated by the Intelligent Data Science and Artificial Intelligence Research Center (IDEAI-UPC) and applies machine learning, artificial intelligence and satellite data methodologies to estimate the emissions and carbon absorption capacity of a plot of land in just three minutes.
- The Materials Interfaces and Colloid Engineering group (INTERCOLL) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), in collaboration with the Life Cycle Thinking group at the University of the Basque Country (EHU), are taking part in the BIOCHOLESTEROID project to develop new bio-based smart materials with optical response for advanced applications.
- The company Friselva S.A., Corporació Alimentària Guissona (bonÀrea), together with the Food Service Cluster and inLab FIB at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), are participating in the Hydroless project, which aims to optimise water consumption in meat production plants. The project includes an innovative solution to monitor and optimise water use at bonÀrea’s plant in Guissona, as well as the design and development of a digital twin of Friselva’s facilities in Riudellots de la Selva.
- The Hydrogeology Group (GHS) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is participating in the LIFE REMAR project to develop an innovative and sustainable solution for the reuse of treated wastewater through infiltration, with the aim of increasing the availability of freshwater resources and improving the state of ecosystems.
- The organisation CARBOPESCA, together with the research group Development Center of Remote Acquisition and Information Processing Systems (SARTI) and the Efficient and Robust Integrated Circuits and Systems (EFRICS) group, at the UPC, are leading the iPROPEZESPADA project, an initiative aimed at optimising the capture and management of swordfish fishing using artificial intelligence.
- The UPCxels project, led by the Intelligent Data sciEnce and Artificial Intelligence Research Group (IDEAI-UPC) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC), aims to create an open, cross-sectoral platform for a shared data space across multiple fields, with a special focus on the agri-food sector.
- A multidisciplinary research team led by the Intelligent Data sciEnce and Artificial Intelligence Research Group (IDEAI-UPC) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya - BarcelonaTech (UPC) is participating in the Agrixels project, which aims to create an agricultural information standard—essentially, a data ecosystem—designed for AI-based services in the agri-food sector.
- The Food Safety and Control Research Center (CRESCA) at the Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya – BarcelonaTech (UPC), in collaboration with the Aquamaris Foundation, has developed a system that allows irrigation using seawater without the need for filtration, desalination, or chemical treatment, both in agriculture and gardening. The new system enables the adaptation of ornamental garden plants and leafy vegetable crops, eliminating the need for fresh water entirely.
- 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.
- The digitalisation of human senses has advanced significantly in areas such as vision, hearing and touch. However, smell and taste continue to present a technological challenge, as their analysis relies on the identification of volatile or dissolved chemical compounds. While there are various sensors on the market capable of detecting specific gases and substances, they often lack the versatility required for comprehensive recognition of complex odours, showing limitations in adapting to different combinations of compounds.
- The Centre for Technological Risk Studies (CERTEC) at UPC is participating in the WUITIPS project (Wildland-Urban-Interface Fire Touristic Infrastructure Protection Solutions), which aims to develop a new wildfire management framework for the tourism sector. This project contributes to risk analysis and the design of specific strategies to mitigate such risks.
- The Tecnologia Orientada a la Comunitat (TOC) research group at UPC, in collaboration with the Centre d'Estudis Porcins de Catalunya, leads the AEROFER project, which aims to demonstrate the viability of liquid fertilisers derived from pig manure in aeroponic cultivation, with the intention of later extrapolating it to conventional crops, thereby closing the loop from waste to resource, with a positive environmental impact on the region.
- The Maritime Engineering Laboratory at UPC (LIM) participates in a European project that will help improve the management of plastic pollution in the north-western Mediterranean and raise environmental awareness among citizens about marine preservation.
- The Agricultural Mechanization Unit (UMA) coordinates RENOVATE, a European project aimed at fostering the exchange of practical knowledge among farmers to optimize sustainable crop management through innovation.
