The second workshop took place at the XV National Congress and I Iberian Congress of Aquaculture, in October 2015 with an attendance of 31 participants. The key challenge to be achieved was to gauge the degree of knowledge on the efficient technologies for oxygen generation on aquaculture production process and to determine the need to further development of these technologies according to experts and professional sector.
In parallel, there was an intention of create a starting baseline for:
- Facilitate an end users-driven research in line with R&D state of the art.
- Collect initiatives from the industry and activities from sector in the field of eco-efficient technologies so that this information could be used as a baseline for further exchange of experiences.
- Setup a focal point for Scientists and companies from the sector to boost cooperation and facilitate networking among this target groups and to the EU.
The results of the workshop indicated that up to 37% of those attending the meeting had prior knowledge of AQUASEF project. There was an increment in the dissemination due to the workshop development.
Another result pointed out in the session was the common agreement on the need to work on eco-efficient technologies for oxygen generation and specially the need to work on automatic processes and the development of robust systems for these technologies .
It was also stressed the need to work in the current certifications on sustainability specifically designed for the sector.
As well as participanting with these oral communications during the workshop, ARIEMA participated in the XV National Aquaculture Congress with the poster in the image, focused on the development of Hydrogen and Fuel Cells technologies in the Aquaculture sector.
