Solar To Hydrogen Hybrid Cycles (SOL2HY2)
Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,
The FCH JU strategy has identified hydrogen production by water decomposition pathways powered by renewables such as solar energy to be a major component for sustainable and carbon-free hydrogen supply. Solar-powered thermo-chemical cycles are capable to directly transfer concentrated sunlight into chemical energy by a series of chemical and electrochemical reactions, and of these cycles, hybrid-s ...

Biogas robust processing with combined catalytic reformer and trap (BioRobur)
Start date: May 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2016,
In the BioROBUR project a robust and efficient fuel processor for the direct reforming of biogas will be developed and tested at a scale equivalent to 50 Nm3/h production of PEM-grade hydrogen to demonstrate the achievement of all the call mandates. The system energy efficiency of biogas conversion into hydrogen will be 65%, for a reference biogas composition of 60%vol CH4 and 40%vol CO2.Key innov ...

High-frequency ELectro-Magnetic technologies for advanced processing of ceramic matrix composites and graphite expansion (HELM)
Start date: Jun 1, 2012, End date: May 31, 2016,
"Lightweight ceramics and fibre reinforced ceramic composites, such as non-oxide Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) and Expanded Graphite (EG), represent very promising solutions for high temperature applications in strategic industrial sectors, such as transport and energy. In fact, these materials are one of topical priorities of the European Technology Platform EuMAT and a strategic issue of the ...

INNOVATIVE THERMAL MANAGEMENT CONCEPTS FOR THERMAL PROTECTION OF FUTURE SPACE VEHICLES (THOR)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
There are key space technologies existing at European level and during the last space calls many European projects are framed on space re-entry, but none of them dealing with radically new technologies, able to compete with technologies from other leading countries or allowing collaboration with them. The THOR project will provide knowledge in key space technologies for accessing space, through th ...

MULTIFUNCTIONAL COMPONENTS FOR AGRESSIVE ENVIROMENTS IN SPACE APPLICATIONS (SMARTEES)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
"The aim of this proposal is the development of ceramic composites structures which are needed for applications in aggressive environments, where (oxidative) and temperatures are required, such as hot parts of space vehicles for orbital re-entry (reusable launcher vehicles, RLVs). The solution will be focused on re-usable systems.As expressed by the European Commission a non-dependent access to th ...

Ceramic Heat exchangers with enhanced materials properties (CEREXPRO)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Mar 31, 2013,
"Heat recovery at a high temperature level is essential in industrial thermal processing. The use of ceramic materials yields higher temperatures and subsequently a higher efficiency. The present project aims to develop a new generation of ceramic heat exchangers for high temperature heat recovery with the target of significantly reducing the size and weight as well as also the price of such comp ...
