Predicting the arsenic content in groundwater of the floodplains in SE Asia (PREAS)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2017,
"More than 100 million people living on the floodplains of the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna, Mekong and Red River, all draining the Himalayas, are consuming arsenic contaminated water. Providing safe drinking water for these people requires a quantitative understanding of the processes regulating the groundwater arsenic content and this knowledge is presently not available. In PREDIAS we propose a re ...

Gains from Losses of Root and Tuber Crops (Gratitude)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2012, Date de fin: 31 mars 2015,
Cassava and yam are important food security crops for approximately 700 million people. Post-harvest losses are significant and come in the three forms: (a) physical; (b) economic through discounting or processing into low value products and (c) from bio-wastes. This project aims to reduce these losses to enhance the role that these crops play in food and income security.Post-harvest physical lo ...

Efficient Integrated Security Checkpoints (EFFISEC)
Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2014,
Illegal immigration and illicit material detection is a growing concern at the European borders; in that respect border security checkpoints must be particularly efficient against any kind of threat. If airport checkpoints controls are today technically improving, land and seaport checkpoints differ strongly from airports ones and are more complex to process. During the last years, most of the eff ...

Integrated Renewable Energy Solutions for Seafood Processing Stations (ENERFISH)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 31 mars 2013,
A new polygeneration application with renewable energy sources will be planned and demonstrated for the fishery industry. The distributed energy system utilizes cleaning waste of a fish processing plant to produce biodiesel. The biodiesel is used to produce the locally needed cooling/freezing and heating energy. In addition, a power surplus is generated for the electricity network or local industr ...

Technology for Wafer-scale Carbon Nanotube Applications (TECHNOTUBES)
Date du début: 1 mai 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2012,
Carbon nanotubes are materials with a set of unique electrical, mechanical, surface and thermal properties. Yet their adoption in mainstream applications has been limited by mass production and device integration. This project develops the first 300mm wafer-scale equipment for production of carbon nanotubes on surfaces. The project will cover the design, engineering, process control, quality assur ...

Optically Driven Terahertz Amplifiers (OPTHER)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2011,
This proposal focuses on the development of an application-specific component that works in the Terahertz (THz) regime; in this context, we propose to realize a THz source with innovative features specific for monitoring systems for safety and security. Until now the use of THz monitoring system has been strongly limited due to the very low power and the large dimensions of the existing sources ...
