NOVEL METHOD TO REMOVE CHLOROANISOLES PRESENT IN CORK STOPPERS (NEATCORK)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
"Cork taint refers to a common fault in wine, associated with the presence of haloanisole compounds (particularly, 2,4,6-trichloroanisole or TCA) in large enough concentrations - above 3 ng/l, to degrade the sensorial attributes of wine. Cork taint affects as much as 5% of the bottled wine in Europe, and results in annual losses of €700M. Cork stoppers are the main TCA contamination source. Even t ...

FLEXIBLE PRODUCTION TECHNOLOGIES AND EQUIPMENT BASED ON ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE PLASMA PROCESSING FOR 3D NANO STRUCTURED SURFACES (N2P)
Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
Outstanding progress has been made in recent years in developing novel structures and applications for direct fabrication of 3D nanosurfaces. However, exploitation is limited by lack of suitable manufacturing technologies. In this project we will develop innovative in-line high throughput technologies based on atmospheric pressure surface and plasma technologies. The two identified approaches to d ...

Atmospheric Plasmas for Nanoscale Industrial Surface Processing (PlasmaNice)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Atmospheric plasma techniques as processing methods have a number of advantages which include their ability to tailor the surface chemistry at the nanometre level. As such, the plasma treatments are energy efficient, reproducible and environmentally clean. In-line, continuous reel-to-reel processing equipment has been developed in the last 5 years. The wide scale application of this nano-processin ...
