Perfil de l'organització

GENOCOV stands for Group of biological treatment and of liquid and gaseous effluents, nutrient removal, and odors and Volatile Organic Compounds. The group is a research group from the Chemical Engineering Department at the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. GENOCOV, whose principal investigator is Prof. Francisco Javier Lafuente, has been active over the last 25 years in understanding the biological processes for the treatment of urban and industrial water and gaseous effluents, with special emphasis on monitoring, modelling and control of such complex biological systems.

The quality of the research group can be measured at first sight through several quality indices such as several EU projects and projects funded by the Spanish Government. With respect to publications, in the last 5 years the group has more than 70 peer-reviewed international journals publications as well as an important participation in international conferences.

The group consists nowadays of seven senior researchers: Francisco Javier Lafuente Javier Sancho (professor and head of the group), Juan Antonio Baeza Labat, Julian Carrera Muyo, David Gabriel Buguña, Albert Guisasola Canudas, Julio Perez Cañestro, María Eugenia Suárez Ojeda, in addition to around 15 active researchers (including postdocs, PhD students and lab technicians).

Línies de recerca

  • Línies de recerca:
  • Urban and industrial wastewater treatment in a circular economy scenario
  • Recovery of volatile fatty acids, long-chain carboxylic acids and biopolymers as polyhydroxyalkanoates,
  • The combination of Enhanced Biological Phosphorus Removal with phosphorus recovery as chemical added-value compounds (struvite and vivianite
  • To recover nutrients such as ammonium and sulfur from wastewaters through bioelectrochemical systems
  • Developing an energy-producer urban WWTP by implementing autotrophic nitrogen removal and the use of bioelectrochemical systems for hydrogen production
  • Treatment of high-strength wastewaters contaminated with toxic or recalcitrant compounds and nutrients by using advanced biological treatments (granular biomass) and the combination of chemical oxidation with biological processes.
  • Decision Support Systems for the evaluation of different WWTP configurations
  • Development of sensing platforms. Development of automated devices for real-time monitoring of chemicals involved in gas and water biological treatment processes towards the use of remote automated systems in a miniaturized fashion
