GALLEGOS, A. et al. ICTs for determining operational parameters of engineered wetlands designed for the treatment of nitrate-polluted water. Rev. ing. univ. Medellín [online]. 2016, vol.15, n.28, pp.53-70. ISSN 1692-3324. https://doi.org/10.22395/rium.v15n28a3.
Due to the agricultural practices in Spain, 13% of the entire territory has been declared as vulnerable to nitrate-polluted water. In order to mitigate the environmental impact caused by nitrogen, a hybrid system of artificial wetlands has been engineered thanks to the European project known as LIFE REAGRITECH. The prototype has been thought as a compact, modular, and portable system, automated and operated in a remote manner. Monitoring of the system will result in valuable knowledge for public management, farmers, researchers, and universities, and it will provide useful information intended to improve the decision-making process as a way of preserving water resources and environment. Project REAGRITECH offers significant future perspectives in the field of agriculture in Europe and in Colombia as well.
