The Porcelanosa Partnership Programme for Talent and Excellence of the Universitat Jaume I has awarded three UJI students in recognition of their bachelor’s thesis and master’s thesis carried out this academic year. A total of three prizes were awarded, each worth one thousand euros, with the aim of rewarding innovation in the ceramics sector.

The prize-giving ceremony, which was held at Porcelanosa's facilities, was attended by Antonio Latorre, R&D&I Director of Porcelanosa Grupo; Jorge Fabregat, Systems Director of Porcelanosa; M. José Soriano, CEO of Porcelanosa Group, and Arnaldo Moreno, Professor of Chemical Engineering and Director of the Programme.

The first prize-winner was Manuel Gil Vaquer, for his bachelor’s thesis in Chemical Engineering entitled “Study of the technical, economic and environmental feasibility of installing a fuel cell plant as a cogeneration system in the ceramic tile production process”, tutored by Enrique Sánchez.

Cristina Sánchez García received another prize for her bachelor’s thesis in Chemistry, entitled “Synthesis and deposition of BiVO4 thin films for photodegradation of organic pollutants”, under the supervision of Juan Carda and Jaime González Cuadra.

Finally, in the category of Master’s Thesis, Julia Hernández Valls was awarded for her project “Recycling and valuation of ceramic tile grinding waste in the manufacture of sustainable cements”, tutored by Lucía Reig and Marta Roig.

The Porcelanosa Partnership Programme for Talent and Excellence is committed to training, research and development with the aim of being a key player in the development of the ceramics sector.
