Low-temperature heat valorisation towards electricity production (LOVE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2014,

"Low-temperature process waste heat is primarily valorized to provide heat to other applications and, more rarely, to provide cooling or to produce electricity, which is often perceived to be less attractive. However, generating electricity does represent a rational alternative, since it may circumvent drawbacks linked to demand seasonality and location. The LOVE project aims at developing innov ...

Lightweight, long endurance body cooling for fire fighters (StayCool)

Start date: Jan 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2012,

There are about 500 000 professional fire fighters in the European Union (EU). When called to fight fires they can be exposed to high levels of heat stress, which results in decreased physical performance and even heat exhaustion. If a fire fighter succumbs to heat exhaustion he requires rescuing and this then exposes other fire fighters and the public to increased risk. In order to reduce the ris ...

Intensified Heat Transfer Technologies for Enhanced Heat Recovery (INTHEAT)

Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

"A core part of this proposal is the development of methodologies to select and rigorously design the appropriate type of enhancement technology into energy optimisation studies to a practical level, whereby process plant engineers can plan and carry out plant energy reduction programmes in which they will have confidence. The project aims to achieve at least 20% to 30 % energy savings in the ener ...
