The first Technical Conference on Wastewater Treatment: Anaerobic Digestion organized by the FACSA Chair on Innovation in the Integrated Water Cycle started on Thursday 7 July 2016 at the Universitat Jaume I with the intervention of the professor of Chemical Engineering from the University of Santiago de Compostela Juan M. Lema, who spoke about "Great opportunities for anaerobic digestion."

Lema indicated that there is a growing interest among the research community on this issue, given the rise of studies and publications linked to social change that demand a greater sustainability and resource recovery. Anaerobic digestion is a process by which biodegradable material decomposes generating various gases, such as methane or carbon dioxide, in water treatment plants.

The professor explained that the latest research is aimed at reducing sludge and the energy used in the process; water and sludge reuse and energy, plastic or cellulose recovery, among others. Lema said that these new perspectives "change the concept of water treatment" and pose new challenges to the researching and technical community to achieve an efficient use of water resources and the recovery of solid waste.

The conference was opened by the rector of the Universitat Jaume I, Vicent Climent; the president of FACSA, Enrique Gimeno, and the director of the FACSA Chair on Innovation in the Integrated Water Cycle, Sergio Chiva, who commented that the conference had been a great success of participation, with 147 people registered, 90 of them from the business and institutional fields and 57 from the university sphere; as well as the 14 speakers, 9 of them linked to academia and 5 to business.

The president of FACSA, Enrique Gimeno, highlighted the work done by the business and academic teams participating in the FACSA-UJI Chair , which has allowed "to vertebrate new collaborations with other research groups and new forms of cooperation". Finally, the rector of the UJI, Vicent Climent, stated that the conference shows "the commitment between academia and business to achieve the progress of society" and congratulated the FACSA-UJI Chair for the broad activity developed in their first year of life: three technical seminars and five workshops.

The first day of the conference was dedicated to the overview of anaerobic digestion and practical applications. The second and last day will be devoted to anaerobic digestion as a generator of resources with interventions on biorefineries and biogas.
