Rainwater recycling and closed circuit
Roof of the silos adapted for rainwater recovery, then treatment and storage.
and piping and pumps adapted for rainwater/recycled water mix.
Wastewater treatment by ozonisation
Innovative system for efficient water treatment before re-insertion into the internal water cycle.
Water circuit for bottle cleaning
During bottling, cleaning machines integrating rainwater and recycled water.
Lead shields
The employees of the Canfranc underground laboratory ensure the proper functioning of devices and protocols to control all the good conditions of these experiments. Lead shields are used in different experiments.
NEXT The Neutrino Experiment with a Xenon Time projection chamber
intends to search for neutrinoless double beta decay. The observation of this phenomena would imply total lepton number violation and would show that neutrinos are Majorana particles require excellent energy resolution to eliminate background events.
DArT in ArDM Argon Dark Matter project
Argon Dark Matter (ArDM) is a direct dark matter experiment for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs) searches. DArT at ArDM is a proof-of- concept for a facility to determine the radio- purity of argon with high precision.
Water-saving irrigation of the enclosures.
Provided by rainwater recovery on roofs and irrigation by misting and rain: Irrigation of production only during 3 months. 50m3 of water/m2/year.
Extraction of cruelty-free slime.
Recovery of snails by means of a differential humidity process on wooden pallets. Slime extraction by gentle ozonisation and steam method, respecting the snails' well-being.
Production of cosmetics based on snail slime.
Anti-ageing skin benefits against tissue slackening, thanks to healing and regenerating properties
Innovative slow-food gastronomy and taste education.
Gastronomic innovation through the creation of dishes including snails, education in taste and the entire production cycle according to the principles of the blue economy.
