Systemic approach to Reduce Energy demand and CO2 emissions of processesthat transform agroforestry waste into High Added value Products. (REHAP)

Start date: Oct 1, 2016, End date: Sep 30, 2020,

Europe's position in the production of biochemicals from biomass and by-products is limited to a few compounds, while their demand is among the largest in the world. However, Europe has a lot of world leader chemical companies. On the other hand, lignocellulosic waste constitutes one of the most abundant resources without competing with food chain.REHAP’s 16 partners aim at revalorizing agricultur ...

REsources from URban BIo-waSte (RES URBIS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2017, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

RES URBIS aims at making it possible to convert several types of urban bio-waste into valuable bio-based products, in an integrated single biowaste biorefinery and by using one main technology chain. This goal will be pursued through: - collection and analysis of data on urban bio-waste production and present management systems in four territorial clusters that have been selected in different cou ...

Synergistic Fouling Control Technologies (SEAFRONT)

Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

Marine biofouling, the unwanted colonization of marine organisms on surfaces immersed in seawater has a huge economic and environmental impact in terms of maintenance requirements for marine structures, increased vessel fuel consumption, operating costs, greenhouse gas emissions and spread of non-indigenous species. The SEAFRONT project will aim to significantly advance the control of biofouling a ...

High value-added chemicals and BIoreSIns from alGae biorefineries produced from CO2 provided by industrial emissions (BISIGODOS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Apr 30, 2017,

BISIGODOS aims to address the production of valuable algae derived chemicals, amino acids and high added-value bio-resins for coatings, printing, food and hair care and adhesives applications, starting from algae biomass fed directly with CO2 from industrial emissions (cement, steel factory, thermal power plants, etc.) as a raw material that is cost-effective and renewable. The process is assisted ...

Integrated prevention and Detection sOlutioNs Tailored to the population and Risk Factors associated with FALLs (I-DONT-FALL)

Start date: Apr 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Description Falls are the most prominent among the external causes of unintentional injury, since they account for approximately 40% of all injury deaths. Fall rates (and related mortality rates) vary depending on the country and the studied population. At the same time, falls are also associated with various risk factors, spanning the areas ...

Magnetic Scaffolds for in vivo Tissue Engineering (MAGISTER)

Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

The main driving idea of the project is the creation of conceptually new type of scaffolds able to be manipulated in situ by means of magnetic forces. This approach is expected to generate scaffolds with such characteristics as multiple use and possibly multipurpose delivery in order to repair large bone defects and ostheocondral lesions in the articular surface of the skeletal system. The major ...

Organic sensory information system (OSIS): documentation of sensory properties through testing and consumer research for the organic industry (ECROPOLIS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"Distributors and promoters of organic food claim their products are superior in taste compared to conventional alternatives. This argument, however, is still the subject of heated debate and thus deserves greater scientific examination. Since repurchase intentions are dependent on the overall liking of a product, and sensory experiences may have an important impact on this, knowledge about these ...
