Project acronym: AQUAWAVES

Project full title: Aquaponic Waste Valorization to Improve Marginal Soils

Duration: 12 months – On going

Funding Scheme: Bando a Cascata con D.R. n. 1204 del 29/03/2024 dell’Università degli Studi di Bari Aldo Moro a valere sul Progetto dal titolo “AGRITECH – National Research Centre for Agricultural Technologies”, finanziato dal PNRR, Missione 4, Componente 2, Investimento 1.4 – NextGenerationEU

Goals: AQUAWAVES valorizza gli scarti dell’acquaponica (biomassa, fanghi, acqua di coltivazione) per migliorare la fertilità dei suoli marginali, riducendo gli sprechi e promuovendo un modello di economia circolare. Il progetto analizza la composizione chimica di questi scarti per valutarne il potenziale biostimolante e la loro capacità di migliorare il compost e il suolo. La sperimentazione prevede test in serra con colture su diverse miscele di suolo, compost e scarti, monitorando in tempo reale i parametri chimico-fisici del terreno. L’impatto atteso include la riduzione dei rifiuti della filiera acquaponica, il recupero di suoli marginali e la creazione di un sistema di monitoraggio per lo studio delle dinamiche suolo-pianta. Il progetto contribuisce agli obiettivi di sostenibilità di Spoke 7 del programma Agritech.

Activities: T-Connect partecipa all’identificazione dei parametri agronomici chiave e alla selezione della tecnologia di monitoraggio, sviluppando un sistema personalizzato per la sperimentazione. Si occupa della progettazione, integrazione e ottimizzazione del sistema di monitoraggio, con test in ambiente operativo per garantirne l’affidabilità. Supporta il monitoraggio continuo dei parametri del suolo durante la sperimentazione in serra e la raccolta dei dati da analizzare per pubblicazioni scientifiche.

1. Inside the park, visitors could check  their positions and find their friends in the park to play with the them using the several games available
2. Outside the park, to be updated about the news of the park the price of the tickets and the attraction available

The App provides an interactive map suitable to find easily the several services available in the park and it assures to the visitors to be continuously informed about what is happening in the park. Moreover the App provides the opportunity to create groups among visitors in order to keep them always in contact.

During the meeting, T-Connect, Progesi and Nitel exposed the advancements of the CAMMEO Project and started an interesting discussion about its functionalities, future extensions and future applicabilities.
A networking session followed the presentations, and helps to create new network between national research project and their possible cooperation.

You can see some shoots of the meeting at our facebook page.

At the occasion of CeBIT, Europe’s leading multimedia associations announce the Winners of the European Seal of Excellence in Multimedia 2006.

In his introduction, Philippe Wacker, the Secretary General of the European Multimedia Forum, underlined the importance of the Seal as a visibility tool highlighting the effort of Europe’s multimedia associations to support their members’ international business expansion. “The Seal showcases some of the companies that we are currently promoting internationally, both within and outside Europe”. He also welcomed the presence of Indian companies (for the third time) amongst this year’s Seal Winners.

Highlighting the patronage of EUREKA for the 2006 Seals, Philippe Wacker emphasised that “EUREKA focuses on supporting market-orientated R&D projects. The programme thus underlines the necessary organic link between research and the market-place. In so far, there is complete symbiosis in approach between EUREKA and the European Seal of Excellence in Multimedia.”

Referring to the “bigger picture”, Mr. Wacker reflected on Europe’s position in the world as a measure of its success… or failure. “At a moment when Europe is looking at its global competitive position, it is important to ask ourselves what the ingredients of success are. Is it really primarily our lack of investment in education & research? Or is it more fundamentally that we are too often oblivious about marketing our innovation?”

Mr. Wacker continued: “Our Seal Winners are very successful companies which understand the importance of producing for a market. This attention to marketing is what we intend to highlight by distinguishing them with a Seal of Excellence. Our Winners are successful and, as such, are natural job creators.

Background: Focusing on Excellence in Innovation Marketing

The European Seal of Excellence in Multimedia distinguishes ICT & digital media companies with an excellent track record in innovation marketing. A list of this year’s Seal Winners is appended.

Through the Seal, the European Multimedia Associations Convention (EMMAC) intends to honour the outstanding achievements of companies active in the multimedia value-chain. Members of EMMAC nominate their candidates. A jury composed of a representative from each EMMAC member selects the winners. The Seal is awarded annually.

Companies & institutions to which the Seal is bestowed are entitled to refer to, and publicly display, their ‘European Seal of Excellence’. All winners feature prominently in www.Check-Out-Europe.com, the European Showcase of Excellence in Multimedia.
