An innovative bio-economy solution to valorise livestock manure into a range of stabilised soil improving materials for environmental sustainability and economic benefit for European agriculture (BIOECOSIM)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2016,

BioEcoSIM comprises R&D and demonstration of an integrated approach and business model that has wide EU27 applicability in the agriculture sector. The new European Bio-economy Strategy aims to increase the use of bio-based raw materials. Thus, large quantities of fertilisers will be required. Therefore, this project targets to produce sustainable soil improving products that can be easily handled, ...

Coherent Information Processing in Rare-earth Ion doped Solids (CIPRIS)

Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,

Rare-earth ions (lanthanides) play an increasingly important role in modern optical technologies. Lanthanides are extensively used in solid-state laser physics, e.g. as key components in telecommunication networks. Rare-earths are also employed as luminescent materials in lamps or as radiation detectors in X-ray imaging. Rare-earths are already commercially omnipresent.However, the full potential ...

Process for sustainable phosphorus recovery from agricultural residues by enzymatic process to enable a service business for the benefit of European farm community (PHOSFARM)

Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2015,

PhosFarm addresses the increasing market for a sustainable and economically phosphorus (P) recovery from agricultural residues to meet growing demand for food, bio-fuels and bio-materials. Recent studies demonstrated that the EU is highly vulnerable to the foreseeable P scarcity because of its entire dependency on imported phosphate rocks for the fertilizer production. To avoid this dependency, ne ...

Leveraging on new knowledge and latest advances in science & technology to allow large communities of EU textile machinery SMEs to innovate their products & keep EU leadership in added value textiles (NU-WAVE)

Start date: Jan 1, 2009, End date: Dec 31, 2011,

"Although Europe keeps the world-wide leadership in the textile market, Far East has become a major manufacturing area. This situation opened new perspectives in fast growing markets for the European manufacturers of textile machines, 95% of which are SMEs. However, as today textile machines mainly consist of established electro-mechanical systems the advantages were only of short duration. An int ...
