ENERGY EFFICIENCY FOR EU HISTORIC DISTRICTS SUSTAINABILITY (EFFESUS)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Aug 31, 2016,

Europe can become the leader in CO2 emission reduction by applying innovative solutions to its built cultural heritage. According to the European Recovery Plan one of the actions that needs to be taken to tackle the current crisis, is investing in energy efficiency. Historic urban buildings consume 4% of all energy and are responsible for 3% of CO2 emissions. Therefore, improving energy efficiency ...

Environmental friendly and Durable Oil and water repellence finish on Technical Textiles (TEX-SHIELD)

Start date: Dec 1, 2012, End date: Nov 30, 2015,

In the current market, the well-known brands of technical textiles are coated with Perfluorocarbon chemistry to possess highly durable oil and water repellent (OWR) finish. In early days, water repellent finish for fabrics was provided by simple paraffin or wax coatings which washed out eventually. Alternatively, PFOS and PFOA are the chemicals belonging to the family of perflourochemicals (PFCs) ...
