NUTRIA project will be devoted to the development of a new tool for waste water treatment, that will be cheap, efficient, environmentally-friendly, and easy-to-apply for the food and agriculture SMEs. NUTRIA will focus, in a first instance, in using technology to diminish the inherent problems in eliminating water contamination in wineries, being the results beneficial for other agricultural companies. The need to deal with the current environmental legislation complicates the continuation and creation of new enterprises, due to the high cost of existent waste water treatment processes. NUTRIA emerges as a solution to this problem, using solar light as energy source and new nanomaterials based on titanium oxide to reduce the toxic materials content by promoting photocatalytic processes in their surface. The project will benefit small wineries and companies of the agricultural sector that will gain access to a new and affordable technology. All this Will produce a reduction of the expenses for the waste treatment that, up to date posed economic burden for the microSMEs, making easy the economic activity in rural zones. (English)
