European Network on Luminescent Materials (LUMINET)
Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2016,
Luminescent materials have entered our every day life. They can be found in lamps, traffic lights, computer screens, cell phones, in labels for goods, are used in medical applications, airport security check devices and many more. Indeed, they have become indispensable and much of societies convenience and welfare depend on them. No wonder that the development and use of luminescent materials has ...

Advanced Technologies for the Production of Cement and Clean Aggregates from Construction and Demolition Waste (C2CA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2015,
"The recycling of end-of-life concrete into new concrete is one of the most interesting options for reducing worldwide natural resources use and emissions associated with the building materials sector. The production of the cement used in concrete, for example, is responsible for at least 5% of worldwide CO2 emissions. On-site reuse of clean silica aggregate from old concrete saves natural resourc ...

Nano Health-Environment Commented Database (NHECD)
Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
We propose to use our recent advanced research results and build a novel and useful automatic database on the impact of nano-particles on health and environment, which will be hosted and maintained by a expert software company based in Europe. The strength and innovation is double folded: primarily in automatic extraction and understanding from free text, which is in particular suited to create a ...

Coordinating Twinning partnerships towards more adaptive Governance in river basins (Twin2Go)
Start date: Jun 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2011,
Over the past years, the EU has funded several projects that undertook research on specific integrated water resources management (IWRM) issues in case studies carried out on twinned river basins from Europe and from developing countries. The aim of Twin2Go now is to review, assess, synthesize and consolidate the outcomes of these projects in order to make them transferable and applicable to other ...

LOGistics & MANufacturing trends and sustainable transport (LOGMAN)
Start date: Aug 31, 2009, End date: Aug 30, 2011,
Factors like global competition, labour cost, recycling technologies and environmental restrictions force companies to implement new logistics and manufacturing systems. From a transport’s point-of-view most of these new systems (e.g. offshoring) have negative impacts as they induce additional freight transport. But on the other hand they are implemented as they have positive effects like cheaper ...
