Thinfilm measurements on organic photovoltaic layers (THIME)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2012, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2014,
Printing and other large-area roll-to-roll (R2R)-compatible processes present exciting opportunities for cost-efficient mass manufacturing of electronics, among other functionalities, on large-area and flexible substrates such as plastic, paper and fabrics. In particular, thin film Organic Photovolactics (OPV) are generating a buzz in the industry. Printing the active components of a PV system ont ...

Monitoring and controlling volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions by using novel on-line FTIR/iPAS technology (ZERO-VOC)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2009, Date de fin: 30 avr. 2012,
Strict limits have been set for volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions due to their direct and indirect effects on the environment and the potential risk to human health. Industrial plants using solvents have to limit their emissions to the levels stated in VOC-directive (Directive 99/13/EC) before the end of October 2007, whereby VOC emissions from the solvent using industry should be reduced ...

"Development of a cost-effective, durable coating system with low fungicide content for wood surfaces using Plasma Discharge" (DURAWOOD)
Date du début: 1 déc. 2009, Date de fin: 30 nov. 2011,
"For wood to compete with other materials and be attractive to customers, a durability of treated wood facades of at least 5-8 years renovation-free should be guaranteed. New EC legislation (2004/42/EC) requires the replacement of solvent-borne coating systems with water-borne coatings for outdoor wood preservation purposes. Wooden facades treated with water-borne coatings are more susceptible to ...

Whey protein-coated plastic films to replace expensive polymers and increase recyclability (WHEYLAYER)
Date du début: 1 nov. 2008, Date de fin: 31 oct. 2011,
"In the food industry, the oxidation of fats, oils, and other food components produces off-flavours, off-colours and nutrient loss. Protection against oxygen is a vital requirement of food packaging. Common synthetic polyolefin films such as PE and PP are excellent moisture barriers, but must be coated or laminated with synthetic polymers including EVOH and PVDC copolymers to provide an oxygen bar ...

"Low cost, easy to use Intelligent Irrigation Scheduling System" (WATER-BEE)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2010,
"Agriculture, the largest industry in the world, is also the biggest threat to the environment. According to the WWF, agriculture wastes 60% or 1,500 trillion litres, of the 2,500 trillion litres of water it uses each year - which is 70% of the world’s accessible water. One of the main culprits is inefficient water irrigation systems. Looking at the European context, 65% of total water consumption ...

Method for improving the quality of frozen foods by assisting the freezing process and reducing the size of the ice crystals (MINICRYSTAL)
Date du début: 1 oct. 2008, Date de fin: 30 sept. 2010,
"Freezing is a very widespread process within the food processing industry, being used not only to manufacture products that are consumed in frozen state, such as ice cream, frozen yoghurts, sorbets, etc, but also as a very important means of preserving fresh foodstuffs. However, freezing animal and plant tissues causes many irreversible physical and chemical changes within the food matrix, often ...

"Development of a high power ultrasound system for the low-cost, fast, effective and quality drying of fruit and vegetables" (ULTRAVEG)
Date du début: 1 sept. 2008, Date de fin: 31 août 2010,
"Dried food is a major element in modern food processing and a staple ingredient for an increasing variety of foodstuffs. Dried food offers many advantages for the mass production of commercially prepared goods, not least cheaper transportation costs, longer storage life and ease of use. However modern drying methods, such as Accelerated Freeze-Drying, prove costly, time consuming, labour and ener ...
