Innovative, environmentally friendly nanophosphor down converter materials for enhanced solar cell efficiency that will reduce energy production costs and increase cell lifetime (NanoPhoSolar)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
The NanoPhoSolar project aims to overcome the limitations relating to the efficiency and performance of a range of photovoltaic (PV) systems by developing a transparent NanoPhosphor down converting material capable of absorbing Ultra Violet (UV) and short wavelength visible light and re-emitting in the more useful longer wavelength visible spectrum(range 525-850nm).This will enable the efficiency ...

Development of bio-oil dewatering and fractionation processes and testing of upgraded bio-oil as engine fuel and feedstock for the production of lubricants (GREEN-OIL)
Start date: Sep 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
"There is globally a large and growing market for biofuels, mainly due to environmental and safety of energy supply concerns, which is only limited by production capacity and competitive prices. Currently, the market is almost totally based on 1st generation biofuels, which have negative implications to global food resources. Therefore the rising pressure towards shifting to biomass residues and w ...

Common assessment and analysis of risk in global supply chains (CASSANDRA)
Start date: Jun 1, 2011, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
The challenges facing international intermodal container logistics is efficiency and security. These seemingly conflicting issues have a common solution: supply chain visibility, where data for visibility can be shared between business and government.Since technical solutions already exist, the challenge lies in integrating solutions across the supply chain. CASSANDRA will:•Facilitate the adoption ...

Intensified Heat Transfer Technologies for Enhanced Heat Recovery (INTHEAT)
Start date: Dec 1, 2010, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
"A core part of this proposal is the development of methodologies to select and rigorously design the appropriate type of enhancement technology into energy optimisation studies to a practical level, whereby process plant engineers can plan and carry out plant energy reduction programmes in which they will have confidence. The project aims to achieve at least 20% to 30 % energy savings in the ener ...

INTERMODAL GLOBAL DOOR-TO-DOOR CONTAINER SUPPLY CHAIN VISIBILITY (INTEGRITY)
Start date: Jun 1, 2008, End date: Oct 31, 2011,
"Main challenges facing today’s international intermodal door to door container transport system are logistics efficiency and security which may lead to contradictory business strategies. However, a safe, secure and efficient intermodal transport system is a common goal of all the participants in the supply chain. INTEGRITY will reconcile these challenges and link all elements of the supply chain ...
