Optimized esterase biocatalysts for cost-effective industrial production (OPTIBIOCAT)
Start date: Dec 1, 2013, End date: Nov 30, 2017,
"OPTIBIOCAT is a 48 months project aimed at developing biocatalysts based on feruloyl esterases (FAEs) and glucuronoyl esterases (GEs) for production of phenolic fatty- and sugar- esters with antioxidant activity for cosmetic industry, expanding the number/type of industrial biotransformations. Selected FAEs and GEs available within the consortium will be improved for their thermo- and solvent- re ...

European Rare Earth Magnet Recycling Network (EREAN)
Start date: Sep 1, 2013, End date: Aug 31, 2017,
"Because China dominates the rare-earth market and is reducing its export quota, there is a very high supply risk for rare earths in Europe. To tackle this rare-earth crisis, Europe needs to invest in primary mining, substitution and, in particular, urban mining/recycling. To date, less than 1% of the rare earths are being recycled, due to, amongst others, a lack of efficient recycling technologie ...

Cobalt and lanthanide recovery from batteries (COLABATS)
Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2016,
"The COLABATS project will provide new industrial processes for the recycling of the critical metals Cobalt and Lanthanides and key economic metals Nickel and Lithium, from waste batteries, significantly improving recycling efficiencies and metal purity from existing recovery routes. Primarily Li-ion and NiMH will be targeted using novel task specific ionic liquids (TSILs) to selectively extract t ...

Cooperation in education and training In Nuclear CHemistry (CINCH-II)
Start date: Jun 1, 2013, End date: May 31, 2016,
The skills in nuclear chemistry are of strategic, as well as immediate, importance for the maintenance of European nuclear operations. The demand for these skills would not decrease even if Europe decides to phase out its nuclear energy because they are even more indispensable for decommissioning the nuclear installations than for their operation, and a substantial demand for these skills exists i ...
