GREA - Grup de Recerca d'Enginyeria Agroambiental
L'objectiu principal d'aquest grup de recerca és estudiar i desenvolupar processos, sistemes i instal•lacions que permetin avaluar i protegir la qualitat del medi agroambiental.
Els aspectes sobre els quals es fa recerca són:
- Tractament i depuració d'aigües
- Aigua i fertilitat del sòl (física, química i biològica)
- Utilització d'aigües no convencionals i aprofitament de fangs
- Economia de l'aigua
- Agricultura urbana i periurbana

Sedimentation monitoring of the active biomass in bioreactors by electrical impedance spectroscopy
(2020)
Conference report
Open AccessSequencing batch reactors are used in wastewater treatment to produce biogas (methane). Currently, when biogas production ceases the active sludge sedimentation process is not monitored but operated on a fixed time basis. ... -
Assessing the evolution of wheat grain traits during the last 166 years using archived samples
(Nature, 2020-12)
Article
Open AccessThe current study focuses on yield and nutritional quality changes of wheat grain over the last 166 years. It is based on wheat grain quality analyses carried out on samples collected between 1850 and 2016. Samples were ... -
Dose effect of Zn and Cu in sludge-amended soils on vegetable uptake of trace elements, antibiotics, and antibiotic resistance genes: Human health implications
(2020-12)
Article
Open AccessThe application of sewage sludge to agricultural fields reduces the need for mineral fertilizers by increasing soil organic matter, but may also increase soil pollution. Previous studies indicate that zinc and copper, as ... -
The Catalan butterfly monitoring scheme has the capacity to detect effects of modifying agricultural practices
(2020-01-01)
Article
Open AccessImpacts of agricultural management practices on the receiving environment are seldom suit-ably assessed because environmental monitoring is costly. In this regard, data generated by already exist-ing environmental survey ... -
Ocurrence and human health implications of chemical contaminants in vegetables grown in peri-urban agriculture
(Elsevier, 2019-03-01)
Article
Open AccessRecent studies have proven that vegetables cultivated in peri-urban areas are exposed to a greater concentration of organic microcontaminants (OMCs) and trace elements (TEs) than those grown in rural areas. In this study, ... -
Occurrence and bioaccumulation of chemical contaminants in lettuce grown in peri-urban horticulture
(Elsevier, 2018-10-01)
Article
Open AccessPeri-urban horticulture performs environmental and socio-economic functions and provides ecological services to nearby urban areas. Nevertheless, industrialization and water pollution have led to an increase in the exposure ... -
Production of ornamental plants and cut flowers in peri-urban areas: An economic and environmental analysis of the Barcelona Metropolitan region, Spain
(2018)
Conference report
Open AccessOrnamental plants and floral plants are not usually considered in research works on urban agriculture. On the contrary, the main stream of research is focused on food production. An essential feature of ornamental plant ... -
Transfer function and time series outlier analysis: modelling Soil salinity in loamy sand soil by including the influences of irrigation management and soil temperature
(2017-12-13)
Article
Open AccessIn variable interval irrigation, simply including soil salinity data in the soil salinity model is not valid for making predictions, because changes in irrigation frequency must also be taken into account. This study on ... -
Methane potential of fruit and vegetable waste: an evaluation of the semi-continuous anaerobic mono-digestion
(2018-01-01)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe anaerobic digestion (AD) of a high diversity blend of fruit and vegetable waste (FVW) generated in tropical conditions as a single substrate was performed. A continuously stirred tank reactor (CSTR) operated in ... -

Polyphenols removal in winery wastewater using an AnSBR
(Universidad de Antioquia, 2018)
Conference lecture
Open AccessThe aim of this work was to study along of different cycles the biomass adaptation process to total polyphenols (TPP) concentrations in an Anaerobic Sequencing Batch Reactor (AnSBR) and to evaluate the degradation of TPP ... -
