Advanced materials solutions for next generation high efficiency concentrated solar power (CSP) tower systems (NEXTOWER)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2017, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2020,
NEXTOWER shall introduce a set of innovative materials to boost the performance of atmospheric air-based concentrated solar power (CSP) systems to make them commercially viable. In particular, tower systems are appealing for the great environmental compatibility and offer tremendous potential for efficient (electrical and thermal) power generation. Yet, their industrial exploitation has been so fa ...

Development of novel, high Performance hybrid TWV/GPF Automotive afteR treatment systems by raTIonAL design: substitution of PGMs and Rare earth materials (PARTIAL-PGMs)
Date du début: 1 avr. 2016, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2019,
To date, three way catalytic converters (TWCs) have been established as the most effective engine exhaust after-treatment system. However, TWCs not only fail to address the issue of particulate matter (PM) emissions but are also the main industrial consumer of Critical Raw Materials (CRMs) mainly Platinum Group Metals (PGMs) and Rare Earth elements (REEs), with the automotive industry accounting f ...

Reactor optimisation by membrane enhanced operation (ROMEO)
Date du début: 14 sept. 2015, Date de fin: 13 sept. 2019,
The integration of reaction and downstream processing steps into a single unit is of central importance in order to achieve a new level of process intensification for catalytic driven and eco-friendly reaction systems. This disruptive technology concept has the ability to reduce the total energy consumption of large volume industrial processes by up to 78%. Additionally, emissions can be reduced b ...

Enhancing water quality by developing novel materials for organic pollutant removal in tertiary water treatments (MAT4TREAT)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2015, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2018,
The MAT4TREAT project consists in a consortium of 8 Universities, 5 of them European (UNITO, AAU, POLITO, UPV and UOI), and the other three from outside the EU (UNLP, McGill, SU), as well as two non academic institutions (ACEA and LQT). These groups are committed to work in the development of novel materials to be used in innovative integrated water tertiary treatments (to remove, for instance, E ...

Redox Materials-based Structured Reactors/Heat Exchangers for Thermo-Chemical Heat Storage Systems in Concentrated Solar Power Plants (RESTRUCTURE)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2011, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2016,
ThermoChemical Storage (TCS) involves the exploitation of the heat effects of reversible chemical reactions for the “storage” of solar heat. Among gas-solid reactions proposed for such an approach the utilization of a pair of redox reactions involving multivalent solid oxides has several inherent advantages that make it attractive for large-scale deployment.The new concept introduced in the curren ...

An Integrated Membrane Process for Oily Wastewater Treatment, Water Reuse and Valuable By-Products Recovery (O-WaR)
Date du début: 1 janv. 2014, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2015,
A large amount of wastewater in the form of oil-in-water is generated in different industries such as olive mills, metal processing and offshore oil and gas. The wastewater treatment equipment market was worth >€1 billion in 2010. All the industries face the same problems: to separate emulsified oil from water in a cost-effective way and to handle large volumes of oily waste in an economical way. ...

Regenerable active polyelectrolyte nanofiltration membranes for water reuse and metal/acid recovery (LbLBRANE)
Date du début: 1 févr. 2012, Date de fin: 31 janv. 2015,
The shortage of drinking water in many regions on the planet constitutes a real problem and hazard. The use of seawater, brackish water and wastewater for human consumption is not a new concept. In spite of the success of membrane technology in water reclamation, membrane separation systems suffer from a serious problem: membrane fouling. The main downside is an inevitabe increase in operation and ...

High added value materials from waste tyre gasification residues (TyGRe)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2009, Date de fin: 31 déc. 2013,
This project is focused on the waste tyres recycling and promotes a thermal process mainly devoted to the production of ceramic materials. The disposal of waste tyres represents a relevant problem within the waste management strategy of the European Community and, despite the attempts of reusing waste tyre in many different ways, a relevant fraction (nearly 23%) is still landfilled. Pyrolysis and ...

Autonomous and standardised container-based water treatment unit for production of potable water (ONLY WATER)
Date du début: 16 juin 2009, Date de fin: 15 juin 2011,
"Beside the lacking access to clean drinking water, the world are increasingly affected by natural disasters which require emergency water supply. Current water treatment systems require that they are designed to the specific water type and type of pollution which make them less suitable as emergency water suppliers. The existing mobile systems today are either not capable of cleaning the water su ...
