Biomarker Development for Postoperative Cognitive Impairment in the Elderly (BioCog)

Start date: Feb 1, 2014, End date: Jan 31, 2019,

Postoperative delirium (POD) is characterized by the progressive deterioration of sensory/cognitive function after surgery with incidences of up to 30-80%. It is frequently followed by postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) which tends to persist over time. In elderly patients, POCD resembles chronic dementia and appears to accelerate the cognitive decline in Alzheimer dementia. POD is strongl ...

Development of Resource-efficient and Advanced underGrOund techNologies (DRAGON)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Increased global competition, economic requirements in order to act budget-conscious as well as current (and future) environmental regulations have caused/will cause the need for new underground construction technologies in order to guarantee resource-efficiency within the tunnelling processes. The before mentioned situation also calls for a paradigm shift from only landfilling with excavation mat ...

Mechanistic Effect Models for the Ecological Risk Assessment of Chemicals (CREAM)

Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Jul 31, 2014,

There is widespread concern about how production and use of chemicals affect the environment. Yet food production and benefits of chemical products are vital for the functioning of European societies. In order to ensure sustainable use, EU regulations require extensive risk assessment before a chemical is approved for use. Current risk assessments focus on risk at the level of individual organisms ...

The Railway-Industry Partnership for Integrated Security of Rail Transport (PROTECTRAIL)

Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2014,

Facing the problem of enhancing the railway security with a systematic top-down approach (i.e. to search for an all-inclusive solution valid for all the conceivable threat scenarios) is judged by PROTECTRAIL members too ambitious even if it could generate potential economies of scale and effort rationalisation. The proposed PROTECTRAIL approach is therefore to split the problem of making the railw ...

Polygeneration through pyrolysis: Simultaneous production of fuel oil, process steam, electricity and organic acids (EMPYRO)

Start date: Dec 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2013,

A 25MWth poly-generation demo plant will be build at the site of AkzoNobel in Hengelo (NL). It will produce fuel oil, process steam, electricity and organic acids through pyrolysis of wood. These products will be used on-site. An overall energy efficiency of 78% will be achieved. AkzoNobel will replace natural gas used for both energy generation and chemicals production. Pyrolysis involves rapid h ...
