Development and implementation of a new, and non existent, logistics chain for biomass from pruning (EuroPruning)
Start date: Apr 15, 2013, End date: Jul 14, 2016,
Agricultural residues could represent a good source of biomass to convert into energy in particular wherever it is impractical to convert cropland to energy crop cultivation . According to FAO’s reportage (1997) , large quantities of ligneous biomass can be obtained from pruning operations carried out in Mediterranean fruit plantations. Agricultural residues therefore play an important role in any ...

Assessment of Climatic change and impacts on the Quantity and quality of Water (ACQWA)
Start date: Oct 1, 2008, End date: Mar 31, 2014,
As the evidence for human induced climate change becomes clearer, so too does the realization that its effects will have impacts on natural environment and socio-economic systems. Some regions are more vulnerable than others, both to physical changes and to the consequences for ways of life. The proposal will assess the impacts of a changing climate on the quantity and quality of water in mountain ...

Urban Freight Energy Efficiency Pilot (FREILOT)
Start date: Apr 1, 2009, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
Transportation of goods is a key enabler for European economy to maintain its competitiveness. However, the same transportation brings other, less positive effects, such as CO2 emissions, contributing to the global gas house effect. Therefore, reduction of fuel consumption, CO2 emissions and emissions of other pollutants is one of the biggest challenges for the road transport today.The specific en ...
