The overall objective of the Horizon2020 RES4CITY project is to enhance the development of sustainable renewable energy and fuel technologies in cities by promoting sustainability and circularity, and by deploying an innovative educational programme, co-designed with stakeholders, to develop highly qualified human capital, to enable results with high replicability across different educational systems.
It aims to demonstrate a new cost-effective and environmentally friendly technology for biogas desulphurisation based on biological processes, being able to obtain high quality biogas and valuable final by-products.
European project that seeks to develop natural fumigants from plant extracts to control whitefly populations and fungal outbreaks of botrytis in greenhouse horticultural crops. The project, led by FumiHogar, in collaboration with B&B Asesores, Comercial Química Massó, BrioAgro Tech and the Finnova Foundation, and 60% funded by the European Union’s LIFE programme, will last four and a half years and will test the effectiveness of a new fumigant biopesticide that is less toxic than conventional ones. With a total budget of 2,758,921.01 euros, this project aims to improve food security and biodiversity and contribute to the professionalisation of farmers in the use of biopesticides.

Horizon 2020 research project funded within the framework of the European Commission’s Green Deal calls, the main objective of which is to develop and implement a technological solution for the recycling and revalorisation of the most relevant waste from the agri-food sector, in products with high added value, supported by a digital tool and built on a systemic-regional approach.
The objective of LIFE-3E: Environment-Energy-Economy, co-financed by the LIFE Programme of the European Union, is to develop and demonstrate an innovative process to promote the regeneration and reuse of water, integrating the production of on-site renewable energy in the coastal Urban Waste Water Treatment Plant (WWTPU) of Comillas (Cantabria, Spain). This so-called Blue Energy will be generated by recovering the energy contained in the saline gradient by means of Reverse Electrodialysis. The project aims to contribute to improving the sustainability of water resources, promoting the reuse of water for street and road cleaning. It will also minimise the external energy demand of wastewater treatment processes and reduce greenhouse gas emissions related to the consumption of fossil fuels.
