Using Recycled Glass for Pressure Blasting Steel Surfaces and the Waste Produced in Firing Heavy Clay Constructed Products (GREENBLAST)
Start date: Jul 28, 2012, End date: Jul 27, 2014,
Currently waste glass is collected from homes (and businesses) for recycling. Due to the lack of demand there is an excess of green coloured glass which must be stored or sent to landfill. This project proposes an eco-innovative process and business model to make use of this in two different industries, effectively double recycling the waste glass, as described below:i) Waste glass can be used in ...

Development and proof of new approaches for through-life asset management based on next generation of materials and production technology (ThroughLife)
Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Mar 31, 2014,
Within this framework, the main objective of the project is to develop and prove new approaches for through-life asset management for selected technologies and application scenarios.This will be done by considering all life cycle phases of the technologies concerned in view of their cost efficiency, environmental performance and safety. Special emphasis will be given to the identification, elabora ...

Risk-Based Expert System for Through–Life Ship Structural Inspection and Maintenance and New-Build Ship Structural Design (RISPECT)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
"The primary objective of the RISPECT project is to use ship structural inspection results (coating condition, corrosion, cracks and deformation) along with the calculated expected results to guide future inspections required to achieve a minimum structural reliability.This “probabilistic inspection planning” is not new but this project takes the method a stage further to use data from large numbe ...

Breakthrough in European Ship and Shipbuilding Technologies (BESST)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Feb 28, 2013,
"Initiated by EUROYARDS, BESST aims to achieve a breakthrough in competitiveness, environmentally friendliness and safety of EU built ships. Focusing on passenger ships, ferries and mega-yachts, the results will to a large extend be applicable also to other ships. A holistic life cycle performance assessment on ship level will guide the technical developments on system level, clustered in System G ...
