Combatting Bacterial Resistance in Europe (COMBACTE-NET)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2019,

The emergence of Antibiotic-resistant bacteria (ARB) is a global problem, having recently been elevated to the top three threats identified by the World Health Organisation (WHO), and subject of numerous national and international government activities, including the Trans-Atlantic Task Force on Antimicrobial Resistance established by the US and EU presidencies. The estimated costs of ARB are aro ...

Co-operative Systems in Support of Networked Automated Driving by 2030 (AutoNet2030)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

AutoNet2030 shall develop and test a co-operative automated driving technology, based on a decentralised decision-making strategy which is enabled by mutual information sharing among nearby vehicles. The project is aiming for a 2020-2030 deployment time horizon, taking into account the expected preceding introduction of co-operative communication systems and sensor based lane-keeping/cruise-contro ...

Novel IΟnic LΙquid and supported ionic liquid solvents for reversible CAPture of CO2 (IOLICAP)

Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

The current requirements of the Post Combustion CO2 Capture (PCC) technology are: a) Reducing the parasitic energy load, b) Effectively addressing corrosion, c) Faster absorption/stripping rates, d) Less viscosity and less use of water, e) Confronting the problem of solvent degradation and volatility. These problems pose stimulating challenges for the synthesis of new solvents, aided by detailed m ...

Surface functionalisation of cellulose matrices using cellulose embedded nano-particles (Surfuncell)

Start date: Dec 1, 2008, End date: Nov 30, 2012,

The projects main R&T objective is to create new, smart and bio-based surface nanostructured polymer composites showing exceptional surface functionality (mechanical, chemical, selective interaction properties). These new materials will be composed of nano-scaled polysaccharides layers with embedded nano-particles, coating different celluloses matrices. The compounding is restricted to the biopoly ...

Complex structural and multifunctional Parts from enhanced Wood-based Composites - eWPC (BioStruct)

Start date: Sep 1, 2008, End date: Aug 31, 2012,

Despite a lot of research activities carried out in the field of Wood Plastic Compounds there is still a certain lack of interest in the commercial market for this new class of materials. BioStruct will help to overcome these barriers in the market success by the development of the next material generation, so-called enhanced Wood Plastic Composites eWPC, avoiding the most important drawbacks in c ...

Nurse Forecasting: Human Resources Planning in Nursing (RN4CAST)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"Current human resources planning models in nursing are unreliable and ineffective as they consider volumes, but ignore effects on quality in patient care. The project RN4CAST aims innovative forecasting methods by addressing not only volumes, but quality of nursing staff as well as quality of patient care. RN4CAST is a consortium of 15 partners that will quantify in 11 European countries-Belgium, ...
