Catalan Institute for Water Research (ICRA)

It is an international reference that commits to the investigation of the integral water cycle, in terms of water resources, water quality, in the broadest sense of the word, (chemical, microbiological, ecological, etc…) and treatment and evaluation technologies and the transfer of this knowledge to society and the business and industrial fabric.

ICRA, given the importance of water as a fundamental resource in life and the problems that surround it, aims to become a pole of knowledge with international resonance in water science and technology.

The research carried out at ICRA is related to all aspects related to water, especially those related to its rational use and the effects of human activity on water resources.
