Reliable and Efficient Combustion of Oxygen/Coal/Recycled Flue Gas Mixtures (RELCOM)
Start date: Dec 1, 2011, End date: Nov 30, 2015,
Most coal-fired utility boilers are fired with pulverised coal and the use of this technology for power generation far outweighs that of alternatives. The consortium have identified key issues that need to be addressed to pave the way for full-scale deployment of oxy-coal firing. As most previous work has been undertaken at pilot-scale so that, in addition to medium scale demonstration activities, ...

The European Research Infrastructure for Thermochemical Biomass Conversion (BRISK)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Sep 30, 2015,
Enhancing biomass utilization without risking its sustainability is a European energy priority, and can be linked to targets for curbing greenhouse gas emissions by 20% by 2020 and 50% by 2050: enhanced energy security and integration with other industrial sectors, such as agriculture, also play a role. Improved use of biofuels and products in advanced biomass conversion units and biorefineries ar ...

Expanding EPNOE leadership towards Food and Health related materials, and increasing industrial participation (EPNOE CSA)
Start date: Mar 1, 2012, End date: Feb 28, 2015,
The need for a transition towards a CO2 neutral biobased economy or bioeconomy, increasing population and globalisation of economies will have the consequence of a need for enhanced supplies of biobased resources. To this end, polysaccharides will be at the central point of the world of tomorrow for sustainable fuel, food, materials and medicine production. EPNOE (European Polysaccharide Network o ...

Collaborative Research into Exascale Systemware, Tools and Applications (CRESTA)
Start date: Oct 1, 2011, End date: Dec 31, 2014,
For the past thirty years, the need for ever greater supercomputer performance has driven the development of many computing technologies which have subsequently been exploited in the mass market. Delivering an exaflop (or 10^18 calculations per second) by the end of this decade is the challenge that the supercomputing community worldwide has set itself. The Collaborative Research into Exascale Sys ...

Nanoscale Operation and Dynamics of small GTPases - Identification of novel Isoform specifying Determinants (NANODYGP)
Start date: Sep 1, 2010, End date: Aug 31, 2014,
"Small GTPases of the Ras superfamily, a major class of signalling proteins, control critical cellular functions, such as proliferation, differentiation, migration and trafficking. Their misregulation is associated with severe diseases, such as cancer or neurodegenerative diseases. More than 150 Ras-like GTPase are known, which are divided into four major subfamilies, each containing between 22 to ...
