On 18 January Mercabarna and the Institute for Agrofood Research and Technology (IRTA) signed an agreement to work together in the areas of research and technology transfer.
Mercabarna is spearheading the project to draft the Strategic Plan for the Food Business Cluster in Barcelona.
Mercabarna’s Wastewater Treatment Plant (EDAR) is equipped with a new facility for purifying the wastewater from activity at the Slaughterhouse and Central Fish Market - a biological purifier which further enhances the process of eliminating waste from water.
