The coordination of national research activities of Member States and Associated States in the field of Ocean Energy (ERA-NET) (OCEANERA-NET)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2017,
Europe’s vast coast line harbours a huge potential resource of ocean energy to be exploited as a renewable electricity source contributing towards the 2020 targets and beyond. The ocean is a complex working environment, relatively little is known about it and it is widely used by others, such as fishing, shipping and recreation. However, the prize for introducing ocean energy generation is high, e ...

A common European approach to the regulatory testing of nanomaterials (NANOREG)
Start date: Mar 1, 2013, End date: Feb 28, 2017,
The innovative and economic potential of Manufactured Nano Materials (MNMs) is threatened by a limited understanding of the related EHS issues. While toxicity data is continuously becoming available, the relevance to regulators is often unclear or unproven. The shrinking time to market of new MNM drives the need for urgent action by regulators. NANoREG is the first FP7 project to deliver the answe ...

Managing Risks of Nanoparticles (MARINA)
Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2015,
While there are standard procedures for product life cycle analysis, exposure, hazard, and risk assessment for traditional chemicals, is not yet clear how these procedures need to be modified to address all the novel properties of nanomaterials. There is a need to develop specific reference methods for all the main steps in managing the potential risk of ENM. The aim of MARINA is to develop such ...

Vapour Phase Bioreactors for Agro-non-Food Industries (SONATURA)
Start date: Sep 1, 2003, End date: Nov 30, 2005,
Background
Recent EU legislation (notably Council Directives 1999/13/EC and 2001/81/EC) will result in the reduction of the total amount of Volatile Organic Carbons (VOCs) released into the atmosphere. To meet the requirements of the EUâs ecolabel, companies must meet targets for the reduction of emissions of air pollutants, in particular VOCs. Operator ...
