Food
Food consists of obtaining, preparing and ingesting food. Nutrition is the process by which ingested food is transformed and assimilated, that is, incorporated into the body of living things.
These are the services that our research groups can develop. For customized information on the services, please contact us.
| Areas of service | Applications of the service | Scientific infrastructure |
| Tests in greenhouse and field crops | Fertilisers. Crop protection | |
| Agropolis training and meetings | Advice and training for the professional sector and companies. Contact with the town council, associations of farmers in the area, Baix Llobregat agricultural park, etc. | |
| Agricultural machinery | Laboratory (and field) tests with any type of machinery. Tractors, seed drills, etc. | UMA |
| Official recognised laboratory that trains vehicle inspectors at national level | UMA | |
| Tests for companies in the plant health sector | UMA | |
| Chemical processes | Modelling, simulation and optimisation of chemical processes | |
| Environmental and life cycle analysis (LCA) for processes in the chemical industry | ||
| Monitoring, machine learning (metamodels and soft sensors) and analysis of plant data | Simulations to identify variables that are not measured (due to a lack of sensors) | |
| Production planning and organisation | Now that we have the food or drink product, we must determine how they can be produced in an industrial format. | |
| Sensors | Multi-spectral sensors for quality control | CD6: Photometry Laboratory, Optical Metrology Laboratory, mechanical workshop, electronic workshop |
