Chemical school, Almería organized a Conference on 16 November in the UAL in the framework of the science week and on the occasion of the commemoration of the patron saint of the Faculty of Sciences of the University of AlmeriaSt. Albertus Magnus, entitled 'desalination for curious'. The Conference was carried out by José Jesús Alonso, head of plant of the desalination plant in Carboneras, stressed in his speech that this platform was the largest in Europe and the first to incorporate new pumps of expulsionwhich led to an increase in the frame, which is the minimum unit of production.

During the Conference Alonso addressed, in addition to the cycle of the water and desalination processes, "the importance of the hybridization of the membranes of these bombs in order to balance production and retention of salts," essential mechanism for the production of resources", in the case of the depletion of the water sources".
The event was chaired by the accidental Rector of the University of Almería, Jose Luis Martinez, the Dean of the Faculty of experimental sciences, Henry's love and the President of the College of chemists of Almeria, Ignacio Flores.
