Saponification pre-treatment and biosensors based control system for slaughterhouse waste anaerobic digestion improvement (ADAW)
Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
Slaughterhouses (mainly for pigs, cattle and poultry which make up almost 93% of the total world meat production) produce large amounts of different wastes and wastewaters. Direct disposal of highly polluted wastewater and organic residues into the sewerage system without prior treatment on the other hand is mostly not acceptable due to resulting environmental and ecological problems and the risk ...

Sustainable Cleaning and Disinfection in Fresh-Cut Food Industries (SUSCLEAN)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
SUSCLEAN will contribute to the development and implementation of a new generation of environment-friendly equipment sanitation and food product decontamination technologies ensuring food safety. Susclean is focused on minimally-processed vegetables (MPV) i.e. vegetables physically altered from their original form by slicing and cutting but remaining in a fresh state. We will develop knowledge, me ...

Development of an efficient environmentally-friendly Algae Control System, based on ultrasound technology, designed for use in bigger ponds and lakes (ClearWaterPMPC)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2013,
Both in lakes, large ponds, water reservoirs and public waters, the growth of blue-green algae constitute a formidable problem. These types of algae represent a group of bacteria, known as cyanobacteria. They give rise to a distinctly foul odour and are also known to produce toxins. These toxins can cause various discomforts and illnesses. As well as causing skin irritations they are even suspecte ...

Integrated and Cost-Effective Solution to reduce the volume of Pig Slurry, minimize Pollutant Emissions and Process Energy Consumption (EfficientHeat)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2013,
The increase of EU pig production and the intensification of its practice resulted of an increase of pigwaste production. In 2008, more than 930 million m3 of pig slurry was produced in the EU. Pigs areraised indoor and the manure collected is mostly slurry. Pig farmers need to treat a great volume ofresidue with high viscosity and variable physico-chemical composition. The leaks and air emissions ...

A novel technology for sewerage mapping, inspection and cleaning with integrated real-time self-audit capability (PipeGuard)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2013,
Sewage systems are crucial to reduce the risks of water borne diseases and avoid flooding of cities. Cleaning processes are thus highly important to avoid health risks and environmental, economic and societal impacts which can be caused by damaged or blocked sewerage. European sewage networks are operated by over 20,000 municipalities and public entities which spend over €6.5 billion annually to c ...
