Innovative plasma based transformation of food waste into high value graphitic carbon and renewable hydrogen (PLASCARB)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2016,
PlasCarb has been stimulated by a transnational consortium of R&D performing SMEs in partnership with specialist scientific resource, life cycle thinking experts, industrial customers, and access to risk finance to facilitate future market uptake. It will integrate commerce with research; transforming a widespread urban solid waste environmental problem (140 million tonnes of food and plant waste ...

Demonstration of a non-thermal process to replace use of sulphites and other chemical preservatives in European wines to meet new European Directive (PreserveWine-DEMO)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
The PreserveWine project (Grant Agreement Number: 262507) funded by the R4SME programme (call identifier: FP7-SME-2010-1) delivered high quality science and technology development. PreserveWine involved the RTD of a novel non-thermal process known as “Pressure Change Technology” (PCT) to extend the shelf life of wine; reducing the need to use chemical preservatives and ensuring high wine quality. ...

Development and demonstration of energy efficient system for accelerated curing during repair and refurbishment of concrete structures (MCURE)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
This project has been initiated by the 4 SMEs from different European countries who are all committed to participating in the successful research, development and subsequent demonstration of the MCure project in order to improve the quality and curing time of concrete constructions. Over 50% of expenditure in the EU construction sector is on repair of existing structures rather than on new build. ...

Demonstration of a novel system to breakdown hazardous substances in wastewater streams into harmless bio-friendly compounds using multi-chromatic UV light (L4CW-DEMO)
Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
Many industrial processes create a significant volume of polluted waste water streams, which needs to be cleaned prior to return to the environment to ensure the sustainability of the water supplies and the environment. This is reflected in a significant body of legislation, including the European Water Framework Directive and the IPPC directive. Light4CleanWater R4SME project (FP7-SME-2008-01-232 ...

Microwave Drying for the Rapid Remediation of Flooded Buildings (MICRODRY)
Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Mar 31, 2012,
Our idea is to develop microwave technology which will reduce drying times in buildings after flooding events. A single Microdry unit will run off mains electricity be capable of drying a room in just 10% of the time taken by current technologies. We will develop an intelligent control system that will measure the reflected microwaves to determine residual moisture content and adjust the power out ...

A NOVEL SYSTEM TO BREAKDOWN HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES IN WASTE WATER STREAMS INTO HARMLESS BIO-FRIENDLY COMPOUNDS USING MULTI-CHROMATIC UV LIGHT (Light4CleanWater)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Aug 31, 2011,
There is a need to mange Europe’s finite water resources. Water discharged from industrial processes needs to be returned into our environment in a safe and clean state. This is reflected by the Water Framework Directive (EC 2455/2001/EC) and other legislation. Over 7,000 million cubic metres of heavily polluted water are discharged by our targeted industries every year in Europe, existing technol ...
