Biomacromolecules from municipal solid bio-waste fractions and fish waste for high added value applications. (DAFIA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2020,

Municipal solids waste (MSW) are collected by municipalities and represents more than 500 kg/capita (EU-27 average), 300 million tonnes overall every year in the EU-32. Currently, approximately 50% of this volume is landfilled. More than 1.3 million tonnes of Marine rest raw material (MRRM) are generated in Europe each year. Some countries, such as Norway and Denmark, have traditionally for anima ...

Efficient, low-cost, stable tandem organic devices (X10D)

Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2014,

X10D aims to enable organic photovoltaics (OPV) to enter the competitive thin-film PV market. It will achieve this by pooling the knowledge and expertise of the leading research institutes and start-up companies in Europe, and is the first project of its kind to leverage this knowledge irrespective of the processing technology. It will use the strengths available in device efficiency and architect ...
