The coast of Gandia is characterized by the scarcity of stone bottoms, predominating the sandy ones. From February to July, the females of Octopus vulgaris, approach the coast to make their laying. The characteristics of ...
[EN] Agricultural production has grown in recent years, increasing the use of Organic Fertilizers (OF). For that reason, the use of these compounds must be controlled in fertigation water. In this paper, we test three ...
[EN] The illegal dumpings in sewerage can cause
problems in the Wastewater treatment plants. In this paper, we
propose a system for detecting these illegal dumpings. We use
conductivity sensor for detecting the change in ...
