Development of 2nd Generation Biorefineries – Production of Dicarboxylic Acids and Bio-based Polymers Derived Thereof (BIOREFINE-2G)

Date du début: 1 oct. 2013, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2017,

The existing 2nd generation biorefineries utilize less than 20% of the biomass feedstock for ethanol production, and major side-streams are produced such as pentose and lignin waste streams, that are respectively used for biogas and energy production. Converting the carbon from these waste streams into added-value products would increase the otherwise low profitability and improve the environmenta ...

Managing Risks of Nanoparticles (MARINA)

Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2015,

While there are standard procedures for product life cycle analysis, exposure, hazard, and risk assessment for traditional chemicals, is not yet clear how these procedures need to be modified to address all the novel properties of nanomaterials. There is a need to develop specific reference methods for all the main steps in managing the potential risk of ENM. The aim of MARINA is to develop such ...

An Integrated Framework of Methods, Technologies, Tools and Policies for Improvement of Brownfield Regeneration in Europe (TIMBRE)

Date du début: 1 janv. 2011, Date de fin: 30 juin 2014,

Brownfield regeneration is essential for sustainable land management in European Member States. Currently, the success in brownfield regeneration is unsatisfying in terms of financial and eco-efficiency or social acceptance. Many useful and innovative technologies site clean-up as well as methods to support decision making processes exist, but they are only rarely applied using their full potentia ...

Model driven Soil Probing, Site Assessment and Evaluation (ModelPROBE)

Date du début: 1 juin 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2012,

Conventional techniques for site characterization are time consuming, cost intensive, and do not support decision making. Therefore, new techniques for step by step site characterization strategy with smart feed back loops are necessary. These will be able to support a future “soil framework directive”. Advanced geophysical site characterization techniques combined with new types of vegetation ana ...

Risk-based management of chemicals and products in a circular economy at a global scale (RISKCYCLE)

Date du début: 1 sept. 2009, Date de fin: 31 août 2012,

Many potentially hazardous compounds are traded as chemicals or incorporated as additives in products. Their release to the environment has been a concern of EC, UNO, WHO and OECD. The discussion of the assessment and management of chemicals and products led to the OECD program Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS). The World Summit encouraged countries to i ...

European Network on the Health and Environmental Impact of Nanomaterials (NanoImpactNet)

Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2012,

Recent technological advances allow the targeted production of objects and materials in the nanoscale (smaller than 100 nm). Nanomaterials have chemical, physical and bioactive characteristics, which are different from those of larger entities of the same materials. Nanoparticles can pass through body barriers. This is interesting for medical applications, but it raises concerns about their health ...
