ADEAGUA
COMPANY DESCRIPTION
ADEAGUA APLICACIONES HIDRÁULICAS, S.L. is an engineering company specialized in water treatment solutions, headquartered in Cuarte de Huerva (Zaragoza). The company was founded by professionals with more than 20 years of experience in the sector. Since its incorporation in 2008, ADEAGUA has successfully overcome the initial stages of activity and has grown steadily to become a benchmark in industrial water treatment, with active presence throughout the national territory and a team of more than 20 specialized professionals, operating through branches in Valencia and Madrid, and its headquarters in Zaragoza.
ADEAGUA has recently acquired a 2,600 m² plot of land in the Valdeconsejo industrial estate, in Cuarte de Huerva, where new company facilities will be built over the coming year to support its activity for the next 20 years. These facilities will include more than 500 m² of office space, two water laboratories (one physicochemical and one biological) over 1,500 m² dedicated to storage, assembly, and equipment manufacturing, as well as space reserved for future developments and testing.
The company provides solutions to problems arising from water in its various uses and applications, intervening across all phases of a project, from conceptual design through engineering, execution, operation, and maintenance, often including the upgrading of existing treatment systems.
ADEAGUA works primarily with industrial clients from a wide range of sectors, including food and beverage, chemical, plastics, automotive, and pharmaceutical industries. The company also collaborates with the livestock and agricultural sectors, and more occasionally with public administrations.
Its services cover the entire water cycle: catchment, drinking water treatment, distribution, wastewater treatment, recycling, and reuse, applying different treatment technologies. ADEAGUA combines installation projects with long-term operation and maintenance (O&M) contracts, supporting clients throughout the full lifecycle of their facilities.
The company is strongly committed to the continuous improvement of water treatment processes and to the ongoing evolution toward new technologies. This commitment is materialized through active participation in R&D&I projects, with the objective of contributing knowledge and expertise to the sector.

TRACK RECORD AND KEY PROJECTS
Throughout its trajectory, ADEAGUA has executed projects of very diverse nature and scale, allowing the company to accumulate transversal technical expertise that is difficult to find within the sector.
Among the most representative projects carried out are:
• Implementation of remotely controlled MBR technology in dairy, chemical, cosmetic, and other industries.
• Deployment of advanced filtration technologies using disc filters, enabling applications previously dominated by less water-efficient technologies.
• Application of computational simulation systems for the design of wastewater treatment plants across all sectors.
• Water recycling in industrial facilities using treated effluent from their own wastewater streams.
• Installation of reverse osmosis systems in the livestock sector to improve water supply quality and increase animal productivity.
• Wastewater treatment solutions for service stations, using compact treatment units and discharge management systems.
• Rental services for all types of treatment equipment, avoiding plant shutdowns.
• Installation of water treatment systems in Africa and the Caribbean.

INNOVATION ACTIVITIES
Innovation in treatment technologies
ADEAGUA systematically incorporates advanced treatment technologies into its projects, selecting the most appropriate solution based on a prior technical analysis of each case. The main areas of development include:
• Membrane bioreactors (MBR) for urban and industrial wastewater treatment, achieving significant improvements in effluent quality and plant footprint; the company operates its own full-scale reference installations.
• Ultrafiltration (UF) and nanofiltration (NF) for drinking water treatment, removal of specific contaminants, and production of water for reuse.
• Selective ion exchange for the removal of nitrates, ammonium, and heavy metals in municipal water supplies and industrial processes.
• Improved biological process control through bioindication, process simulation, respirometry, and other advanced techniques.
Digitalization and plant monitoring
ADEAGUA has developed in-house capabilities for the deployment of remote supervision and control systems for treatment facilities, including:
• Telemetry and SCADA systems for real-time monitoring of key process parameters.
• Alarm systems and early incident detection to reduce response times and prevent unplanned shutdowns.
• Historical operational data logging to support technical decision-making and continuous process optimization.
Process optimization and applied chemistry
A further pillar of innovation is the continuous improvement of operational processes at active facilities:
• Development and optimization of CIP protocols for membrane systems, reducing chemical consumption and extending membrane lifespan.
• Design and implementation of automatic neutralization systems for acidic and alkaline discharges in industrial environments, using more sustainable reagents.
• Optimization of dosing of eco-friendly and sustainable chemicals in continuous processes to reduce environmental impact.

DIFFERENTIATING CAPABILITIES
Prior technical analysis methodology
ADEAGUA does not apply standard solutions. Every project begins with a thorough needs assessment, water quality analysis, evaluation of plant constraints, and definition of influent or effluent requirements. This methodology optimizes technology selection and reduces both initial investment and operating costs over the full life of the installation.
Full-cycle project integration
The company covers all phases of the project lifecycle: analysis, design, supply, installation, commissioning, operation, and maintenance. This integrated approach reduces dependence on subcontractors and ensures strict quality control at every stage, providing clients with a single technical interlocutor.
In-house technical team and proprietary solutions
ADEAGUA relies on its own specialized technical team in water treatment and industrial chemistry, and the majority of projects are executed with internal personnel.
