Sendos studies on the pollutant discharges and their control and on the programming of controlled deficit irrigation in cherry with sensors have been the winners of the two prizes summoned by the Chair of Water and Sustainability of the University of Murcia (UMU) to the best Works of End of Master, which have been delivered this Monday during an act held in the Faculty of Law.
The author of the work on the legal regime of polluting industrial discharges, granted in the form of social and legal studies, has been won by the master student of the Carlos III University of Madrid Alberto Álvarez González, who explained that there is sufficient legislation to fight against this problem and that what is needed is a determined policy against it.

In the modality of technical and experimental studies, the prize has been for the student of the Polytechnic University of Cartagena Pedro José Blaya Ros.
The prize has been obtained for his research on the programming of irrigation deficit controlled in cherry with sensors, which allows, he said, a saving of 40 percent in the consumption of water resources.
They have also been awarded a second prize to Daniel Principal Gómez, and Margarita Villa-Landa Sokolova, both from the University of Granada.
The first, by a research on the design of coastal regenerations by techniques of simulation of climatic variables, applied to the delta of the Guadalfeo, in Motril (Granada).
The second has been for a work on the urban water sector in Spain and the need for an independent water regulatory body.
The Vice Chancellor for Transfer, Entrepreneurship and Employment, Francisca Tomás, took part in the award ceremony, which highlighted the great activity carried out by the Chair of Water and Sustainability, led by Professor Teresa Navarro.
