Advanced Multi-Fuel Reformer for Fuel Cell CHP Systems (ReforCELL)
Start date: Feb 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Distributed power generation via Micro Combined Heat and Power (m-CHP) systems, has been proven to overcome disadvantages of centralized plant since it can give savings in terms of Primary Energy consumption and energy costs. The main advantage is that m-CHP systems are able to recover and use the heat that in centralized systems is often lost. Wide exploitation of these systems is still hindered ...

Development of reference methods for hazard identification, risk assessment and LCA of engineered nanomaterials (NANOVALID)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
The growing development, production and use of engineered nanomaterials and associated products will increase exposure of both humans and ecosystems to these new materials. However, current knowledge is still incomplete and established test methods are as yet inappropriate to reliably assess the extent of exposure and risk of materials at the nano-scale. There is an urgent need to develop methods ...

implementation of a TOXicity assessment Tool for pRActical evaluation of life-cycle Impacts of techNologies (TOX-TRAIN) (TOX-TRAIN)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
"TOX-TRAIN is a 4-year project and its main objective is the development and implementation of a tool box to assess toxicological impacts related to the life-cycle of technologies. The USEtox model, developed under UNEP-SETAC auspices with contributions of the partners in this consortium, will be taken as a starting point. First, TOX-TRAIN will develop and implement estimation tools for emissions ...

Design and Manufacturing of Catalytic Membrane Reactors by developing new nano-architectured catalytic and selective membrane materials (DEMCAMER)
Start date: Jul 1, 2011, End date: Jun 30, 2015,
The DEMCAMER project proposes an answer to the paradigm met by the European Chemical Industry: increase the production rate while keeping the same products quality and reducing both production costs and environmental impacts. Through the implementation of a novel process intensification approach consisting on the combination of reaction and separation in a “Catalytic Membrane Reactor” single unit. ...

Energy Efficiency in the Supply Chain through Collaboration, Advanced Decision Support and Automatic Sensing (e-SAVE)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Jun 30, 2014,
The e-SAVE project aims to contribute to an energy-efficient supply chain by providing the system, services, collaboration platform and management tools that will help companies monitor, manage and share energy use and carbon footprint data in order to support operational as well as strategic decision making and supply chain design decisions. The project will specifically focus on the consumer goo ...

EUROpean multilevel integrated BIOREFinery design for sustainable biomass processing (EuroBioRef)
Start date: Mar 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2014,
The development and implementation of bio-refinery processes is an absolute necessity and the key to meet the vision towards bio-based economy. The EuroBioRef concept is an integrated, sustainable and diversified bio-refinery involving all biomass value chain stakeholders. The latter will allow large-scale research, testing, optimisation and demonstration of processes in the production of a wide r ...
