Revalorization of wet olive pomace through polyphenol extraction and steam gasification (PHENOLIVE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Jun 30, 2016,

The residue generated by the olive oil process is known as wet olive pomace (WOP), which have high water content (up to 65%), and may contain between 2-8 g. polyphenols/Kg pomace, so more than 80% of the total polyphenol content in olives is lost in the waste material. This olive pomace is normally used for further extraction of pomace oil. For that application, it is dried prior to using organic ...

Integrated low temperature methanol steam reforming and high temperature polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (BeingEnergy)

Start date: Sep 1, 2012, End date: Feb 29, 2016,

Hydrogen is foreseen to be the energy vector of the future. However, there are still significant barriers to store and transport hydrogen, especially in small portable applications. The success of a portable Fuel Cell system depends to a large extent on the fuel supply that should be accomplished in a cost-effective and comfortable manner.The present project proposes a power supply comprising a me ...

MOFs as Catalysts and Adsorbents: Discovery and Engineering of Materials for Industrial Applications (MACADEMIA)

Start date: Jul 1, 2009, End date: Jun 30, 2013,

A major challenge facing European industry involves the development of more specific, energy saving processes with less environmental impact. The recent development of Metal Organic Frameworks (MOFs) may prove a major milestone in achieving these goals. MACADEMIA project is an extension to an FP6 STREP (DeSANNS) which highlighted some MOF materials for CO2 capture and storage. It will expand and c ...

A Novel Transport System for Slaughter Pigs (TRANSUS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

"There is considerable concern about the effects of transport and associated handling on the welfare of pigs. In the EU, regulations to protect animals during transport are laid down in Council Regulation 1/2005. Due to the small profit margins in the pig industry, however, improving pig welfare must go hand in hand with economic benefits to get a sustainable solution. This poses a challenge to al ...
