Drugs and Precursor Sensing by Complementing Low Cost Multiple Techniques (CUSTOM)
Start date: Jun 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2013,
A large number of techniques have been developed in the latest decades, which are able to screen and identify specific molecules for drug precursors detection even at very low concentration in lab testing.Nevertheless the objective to build up a system which proves to be easy to use, compact, able to provide screening over a large number of compounds and discriminate them with low false alarm (FA) ...

A rapid and reliable tool for assessing the malting quality of barley using automated optical analysis (OPTIMALT)
Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
"The EU malting barley industry supplies almost 50% of global malting barley requirements. The sustainability of thousands of EU SME farmers depend on the competitiveness of this industry, as is the quality of our brewing and distilling industries. Malting barley demands a premium at the farm gate but, in return, must exceed a range of malting quality (MQ) parameters laid down by the processing in ...

Miniaturised photoacoustic gas sensor based on patented interferometric readout and novel photonic integration technologies (MINIGAS)
Start date: Apr 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2012,
High-sensitivity gas sensors measure the presence of trace gases. They have a wide range of applications. Finnish SME Gasera has recently developed a MEMS-based mechanism for detecting the pressure waves created in photo-acoustic cells. This innovation can be used to realize infrared gas sensors of extreme sensitivity. Instead of the usual microphone (membrane with capacitive readout) the Gasera c ...

"An affordable, easy to use tool for monitoring the wine production process, based on FTIR/ATR and an attached PAS gas cell" (VITISPEC)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2012,
"The wine industry, which is made up of thousands of SMEs and family business, is an important contributor to the EU economy, providing countless jobs in vine cultivation and harvesting, wine production, bottling and distribution. However, the sector faces severe problems. Consumption is down, and exports from the New World are making huge inroads into the market. Over the last decade, imports hav ...

Monitoring and controlling volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions by using novel on-line FTIR/iPAS technology (ZERO-VOC)
Start date: Nov 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,
Strict limits have been set for volatile organic compounds (VOC) emissions due to their direct and indirect effects on the environment and the potential risk to human health. Industrial plants using solvents have to limit their emissions to the levels stated in VOC-directive (Directive 99/13/EC) before the end of October 2007, whereby VOC emissions from the solvent using industry should be reduced ...
