DRiving InnoVation in crisis management for European Resilience (DRIVER)
Start date: May 1, 2014, End date: Oct 31, 2018,
DRIVER starts from the experience that neither successful R&D nor strong end-user demand always lead to innovation in the Crisis Management (CM) domain. This is a problem since as societies become more complex, increasing scope and unpredictability of potential crises and faster dynamics of major incidents put increasingly stringent demands on CM. European CM capabilities already constitute a matu ...

Production of DME from biomass and utilisation as fuel for transport and for industrial use (BIODME)
Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Dec 31, 2012,
The overall project objective is to demonstrate production of environmentally optimised synthetic biofuel from lignocellulosic biomass at industrial scale. The final output of this demonstration is dimethylether (DME) produced from black liquor through the production of clean synthesis gas and a final fuel synthesis step. In order to check technical standards, commercial possibilities and engine ...

Security of critical infrastructures related to mass transportation (DEMASST)
Start date: Jan 12, 2009, End date: May 11, 2010,
"To develop adequate and well accepted security for mass transportation in Europe and the citizens affected by it, is a formidable task. The malicious threats, particularly those posed by terrorists, require a comprehensive approach: if security improvements are patchy, perpetrators are likely to find the loopholes left. With their open access points and interconnections, surface mass transportati ...
