Clean Hydrogen in European Cities (CHIC)

Start date: Apr 1, 2010, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

The Clean Hydrogen in European Cities (CHIC) Project is the essential next step to full commercialisation of hydrogen powered fuel cell (H2FC) buses. CHIC will reduce the ‘time to market’ for the technology and support ‘market lift off’ – 2 central objectives of the Joint Undertaking.CHIC will:- Intensively test the technology to generate learning for the final steps towards commercialisation by o ...

Development of an integrated biorefinery for processing chitin rich biowaste to specialty and fine chemicals (CHIBIO)

Start date: Nov 1, 2011, End date: Oct 31, 2014,

The fishing industry in the EU and elsewhere produces an increasing mass of negative value crustacean shell waste (>6 MTPA), whose current disposal in landfills results in significant costs and risks to human health as well as to the environment. While in Asia small amounts of shrimp waste are processed to chitosan, the high CaCO3 content of EU crab shell waste has prevented cost effective convers ...

Strengthening the industries’ competitive position by the development of a logistical and technological system for “spare parts” that is based on on-demand production (DirectSpare)

Start date: Feb 1, 2009, End date: Jan 31, 2012,

The proposal offers a solution for the growing quantity of product types on the market requiring enormous warehouses to keep stock for spare parts, with corresponding high costs and complex logistics. This emerging problem is caused by the continuously decreasing product life time, decreasing time-to-market and increasing regulatory affairs. A solution is foreseen using Rapid Manufacturing (RM) ...
