R&D&I
Research, development and innovation are integrated elements into AEMA’s DNA as a factor that is not only differential, but also intrinsic to the creation of technological solutions that respond to the challenges of our clients in the integral water cycle.
Efficient, planned and continuous technological innovation allows AEMA to anticipate future scenarios, question current purification processes, seek alternatives and identify opportunities that aim to provide a better service.
To that purpose, AEMA maintains permanent contact with different agents in its environment, which enables it to strengthen and improve the department’s activity in a continuous exploration of new ideas for the development of capacities, products and services.
The company’s human resources are aligned with its R&D&I strategy with active participation in innovation projects, from the identification of opportunities to the implementation of results.
AEMA’s commitment to R&D&I is accredited by the seal of Innovative SME, recognised by the Ministry of Economy and Competitiveness, and supported by more than 4 million euros dedicated to financing innovation projects over the last decade.
PROJECTS
AEMA has participated in more than 25 collaborative R&D&I projects, of which it has been the coordinator in 85% of them. These innovation initiatives are characterised by the development of technological solutions close to the market that allow their clients to benefit from them in a short period of time.
In order to provide projects with the best resources, AEMA participates in the main European, national and regional R&D&I programmes related to water management. This is why AEMA projects are cofinanced by the European Union and the Spanish or Riojan administration (VII Programa Marco, Life, H2020, Eurostar, CDTI, ADER…).
At present, this effort has already generated new products and services, which involve patents such as the multi-stage anaerobic reactor(ES-2541078), thanks to the commitment of highly specialised personnel.
