The Universitat Jaume I stand at the scientific, technological and innovation fair Destaca 2022 includes the participation of the institutes of Advanced Materials and New Imaging Technologies and two companies located in Espaitec: the spin-off company CEBIMAT and the start-up company GEA Biotechnology, which are presenting the latest technologies in their fields. The Formula Student students have also brought their single-seater to the fair to explain its construction.

The Rector, Eva Alcón, visited the UJI stand after the opening ceremony, where she stressed that this participation "is a good example of the applied research, technologies and services that the UJI is currently developing to contribute to energy sustainability, move towards circular economy and provide technological solutions to essential sectors such as ceramics or agriculture". In addition, she also stressed "the importance of information to awaken vocations among the youngest students, vocations that have to guarantee a better future".

In addition to Espaitec, the UJI's science and technology park, the University-Business Foundation (FUE-UJI) is also present, and in the science dissemination section the Solid State Chemistry Group, with visual experiments, and a team of researchers from the UJI and the University of Zaragoza will be demonstrating laser technology.

The Institute of New Imaging Technologies (INIT) presents an immersive virtual reality environment. With virtual reality glasses, users can navigate through a domestic environment and be able to make modifications to both the furniture and the walls. The aim of this environment is to show the possibilities offered by virtual and augmented reality technology for the presentation of business products.

In turn, the Institute of Advanced Materials (INAM) is showing its lines of sustainable innovation, such as high-conductivity ceramic tiles that can be used in electrocatalytic reactors for the production of hydrogen; luminescent additives for security markings; hydrogen storage in liquid form; biocompatible hydrogels for use in the localised application of drugs and antimicrobial and viricidal coatings. They also have an electrolyser to explain the separation of hydrogen and oxygen molecules from water with electricity.

The spin-off CEBIMAT, dedicated to the study of the biodegradation of materials and the development of technological innovation solutions related to this biological process, explains how it develops tests in the laboratory to measure the biodegradation of materials and the consultancy service for the development of products with this type of materials.

The technology-based company GEA Biotechnology offers products and services for the agricultural sector, specifically to help increase production, nutrient absorption, reduce fruit deterioration or the presence of plant diseases. Its crop management system improves crop productivity by monitoring over time the main parameters such as water and nutritional needs and the appearance of diseases.

**Science Outreach Fair**

The researchers Samuel Porcar García, Jaime González Cuadra and Karina Treviño Rodríguez, from the Solid State Research Group of the UJI, and a research team from the UJI and the University of Zaragoza made up of Héctor Santos, Abderrahim Lahlahi Attalhaoui and Carlos Estepa participate in the dissemination section of the fair, more oriented to schoolchildren, where they explain the importance of science in everyday life with visual experiments, the former, and how cutting-edge technology such as lasers works, the latter.

The 2022 Destaca Fair will be held until 18 November at the Vila-real Trade Fair, Congress and Meeting Centre and will deal with energy challenges, the optimisation of natural resources and industrial and digital transformation. The informative part, which will be attended by more than a thousand schoolchildren, takes place from 14 to 18 November. The Fair also hosts the National Materials Meeting, the CEEI Castelló Open Innovation Forum and the ATC Thought Forum, as well as the Globalis Foundation awards ceremony.
