Development of a sustainable exploitation scheme for Europe’s Rare Earth ore deposits (EURARE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2017,

With numerous European industries heavily depended on imported REE raw materials, there is a need for EU to secure a viable supply of REE minerals as well as develop from the ground up the currently non-existent European REE extraction and processing industry. The goal of the EURARE project will be (i) to characterize the potential REE resources in Europe; and (ii) to research, develop, optimize a ...

"Maximising yield of fisheries while balancing ecosystem, economic and social concerns" (MYFISH)

Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

"The MSY concept was included as a principle in the 2009 Green Paper on the reform of the Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) in accordance with the global imperative to manage fish stocks according to the maximum sustainable yield (MSY). This implies a commitment to direct management of fish stocks towards achieving MSY by 2015. Attaining this goal is complicated by the lack of common agreement on the ...

Technology for Wafer-scale Carbon Nanotube Applications (TECHNOTUBES)

Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,

Carbon nanotubes are materials with a set of unique electrical, mechanical, surface and thermal properties. Yet their adoption in mainstream applications has been limited by mass production and device integration. This project develops the first 300mm wafer-scale equipment for production of carbon nanotubes on surfaces. The project will cover the design, engineering, process control, quality assur ...
