Manuele, Leonel thank you for the answer! It works as a charm now...
@Leonel Strings ids come from specifications that are beyond my control : (. However I have to admin that they were useful in some cases. I did not put the unique in the model even though the contraint is implemented db side because the pollutant and pollutant_info tables are assumed to be 'read_only' from the point of view of my webapp. The tables are lookup tables that come from standard codelists whose key values are not supposed to change in the future.
