MCUBO objective
The main objective of the MCUBO Project is to minimize the environmental impact related to water management in the subsectors with the highest water consumption (meat, juices and canned vegetables) through an effective demonstration, at 3 industrial plants, of an integral management system based on:
- The implementation of a new low-cost wireless monitoring technology, Plug&Lean system.
- Detailed modeling of the sub-sectors´ processes, that will serve to propose improvement actions and demonstrate its effectiveness before being implemented (easing the decision making and minimizing risks).
- Specific water management implementation on continuous improvement process in the three demonstrators companies.
