It began its operations in November 2007 with a working group that has been part of the Institute of Engineering for over 15 years and which moved from Ciudad Universitaria.

This research group integrates the Research Laboratory of Advanced Processes for Water Treatment (LIPATA).

The group's goal is to study the phenomena, and the development and design of effective processes for wastewater treatment. The approach is multidisciplinary and involves professionals from various fields such as chemical, civil, electronics, biology, and computer engineers.
