High resolution electron beam melting (HiResEBM)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
HiResEBM is a partnership between EU SMEs and RTD providers with the aim of developing an electron beam melting (EBM) additive manufacturing process to enable the fabrication of high resolution medical implants with optimised porous structures directly from metal powder. Currently the design of medical implants with porous structures is limited by production technologies not being able to implemen ...

Development of a selective, green solvent-based recovery process for waste polystyrene and polycarbonate (POLY-SOLVE)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2014,
Expanded polystyrene is widely used as packaging for foodstuffs and for shipping. Several hundred thousand tonnes of polystyrene are sent unnecessarily to landfill every year in the UK and Europe, where it does not biodegrade but persists for hundreds of years. Meanwhile, oil-derived feedstocks are being consumed in the production of new polystyrene. Recycling systems for polystyrene are underdev ...
