Standardised approaches and products for the systemic retrofit of residential Buildings, focusing on HEATing and cooling consumptions attenuation. (BuildHEAT)
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2019,
Heating consumption in the residential sector in Europe is around 2300 TWh/y, DHW consumptions reaches 500 TWh/y, while cooling consumption is less than 100 TWh/y. The construction sector offers unique opportunities to decarbonise the European economy. However, as the replacement rate of the existing stock is very small (1-1.5 % per year), acceleration is needed.On top of this, the reorganisation ...

Plasmonic-based autOmated lab-on-chip SEnsor for the rapid In-situ Detection of LegiONella (POSEIDON)
Start date: Jan 1, 2015, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
Legionnaires’ disease is a serious form of pneumonia caused by bacterium Legionella pneumophila, with a case-fatality ratio on the order of 10-15%. L. pneumophila proliferates in aquatic habitats, especially in potable water, air conditioning, hot and cold water systems, cooling towers, evaporative condensers, spa/natural pools. Actually, its detection and monitoring rely on time-consuming protoco ...

Solid State Energy Efficient Cooling (SSEEC)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2011,
We propose to develop a high efficiency heat pump and an air conditioner based on a magnetic refrigeration cycle. Both devices will operate at room temperature. The core materials research will centre around the identification, synthesis, modeling and production of low cost, environmentally friendly magnetic refrigerant materials that operate in low magnetic fields and the synthesis and production ...
