The Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de Puerto Rico (International Iberoamerican University, UNIB) will organize, on November 20 at 17:00 (Spain), the webinar "Best practices in the wastewater treatment industry", which will be given by Eduardo García.
The event is held in collaboration with the Iberoamerican University Foundation (FUNIBER), the Universidad Europea del Atlántico (European University of the Atlantic, UNEATLANTICO), the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de Puerto Rico (International Iberoamerican University, UNIB), the Universidad Internacional Iberoamericana de México (International Iberoamerican University of Mexico, UNINI Mexico), the Fundación Universitaria Internacional de Colombia (International University Foundation of Colombia, UNINCOL), the Universidade Internacional do Cuanza (International University of Cuanza, UNIC), and the Universidad de La Romana (University of La Romana, UNIROMANA). The College of Engineers of Peru - Departmental Council of Lima (CIP-CDLima), with which FUNIBER recently signed a collaboration agreement, also collaborates.
New legislation and the environmental awareness of citizens have generated in recent decades a growing interest in implementing wastewater treatment technologies, especially in wastewater from the industrial sector. However, there is no standard recipe applicable to each case, so that particular solutions are required to achieve the principle of "zero waste" within the generality. This is why a correct strategy to reduce pollution requires prior characterization of the discharge, identification and separation of pollutant flows, strict control and, finally, reuse of the process water.
This webinar will review different technologies and best practices that provide added value to the by-products derived from the water treatment process at the domestic and industrial level and in different scenarios, demonstrating that it is possible to reduce the environmental impacts of discharge and minimize costs, within the framework of what is currently known as "circular economy".
Eduardo García holds a PhD in Project Engineering: Environment, Safety, Quality and Communication. In his role as a researcher, he has experience in environmental and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) issues, especially in the integration of environmental, quality and occupational risk prevention management systems in the company.
The conference is free and open to all those interested in the subject and will be streamed live on FUNIBER's YouTube channel.
