Cetaqua Galicia is a public-private research centre founded in 2011 by Viaqua, the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC) and the Superior Council of Scientific Investigations (CESIC). Through our three lines of research, we have positioned ourselves as a benchmark centre, at regional, national and European level, in the application of scientific knowledge to the water cycle, especially the fields of wastewater treatment and production and recovery of high value-added by-products in waste water. | Cetaqua Galicia is a public-private research centre founded in 2011 by Viaqua, the University of Santiago de Compostela (USC) and the Superior Council of Scientific Investigations (CESIC).

Within the biofactory line, the Volatile Fatty Acids (VFAs) production technology from urban sewage sludge and urban biowaste has been developed.

The technologies was validated on a laboratory scale in 2020, and two pilot prototypes were designed and built. The first one installed at Conservas Dardo to recover industrial wastewater from the canning industry, and the second at the Ourense wastewater treatment plant for the recovery of sludge from urban wastewater treatment plants. In addition, this project is currently preparing innovation proposals for the development of the corresponding patents for the VFA line. | ||
