EXplosives PrEcursor Defeat by Inhibitor Additives (EXPEDIA)

Start date: Sep 1, 2014, End date: Aug 31, 2017,

"The objectives of the EXPEDIA project are both to inhibit some frequently used explosive precursors and to increase the knowledge about “garage chemistry”. With this we mean, increasing the understanding of how terrorist’s create homemade explosives (HME), what chemicals they start from and where they find them in the open market. But also, to increase the understanding of how easily a HME can be ...

Solar Thermal Cogeneration Plant based on Organic Rankin Cycle (EFISOL)

Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2011,

"Strategic overall objective of the proposed project is to develop an efficient and cost effective small solar energy system for combined electrical energy power and hot water production that uses concentrated direct solar radiation as the primary energy source. In order to achieve these objectives we are presenting a concept that is based on the highly innovative integration of existing technolog ...

Micro Dynamic Demand and Storage (MiDDaS)

Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: May 31, 2011,

Power outages can be caused by a defect in a power station; damage to a power line or other parts of the distribution system, a short circuit, or the overloading of electricity mains. Out of all the causes, most of them are minimised or preventable by better maintenance except the overloading of the electricity main (Power Grids), which can’t be completely predicted. Across Europe, overloading of ...

Innovative Design for Wind Energy Capture in Urban Environments (ROOF-CAPTURE)

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

"We propose a new approach for urban wind power to help the EU to meet renewable energy targets and make micro–generation acceptable in environmentally sensitive areas. Typically, the wind around buildings is too turbulent and slow to be of much use. Normal turbines need to be placed high above them which is expensive and attracts planning objections. If buildings could be used to augment turb ...

Autonomous firefighting robotic vehicle (FIREROB)

Start date: Jul 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

"The SMEs from EU are nowadays more than ever facing global threats from various competitors from the rest of the world. The competition is sensed in almost all areas of the economy, particularly in the industry and subsequently in machine building sector.On the other side EU and the rest of the world are facing tremendous tragedies in fires accidents, ranging from hazardous plants fires up to tra ...
