Deployment of Societally Beneficial Nano- and Material Technologies in European Partnership Countries (NANOMAT-EPC)
Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2015 PROJECT  FINISHED 

NANOMAT-EPC aims to support the deployment of societally beneficial nano- and materials technologies in European Partnership countries (EPC), in order to increase exploitation of their scientific results and contribute to the United Nations Millennium Development Goals. Consequently, NANOMAT-EPC aims to develop knowledge and technology transfer in nano- and materials technologies for healthcare, clean energy and environment applications. The project will be implemented by a well-balanced consortium of nine partners – four EPC partners and five EU partners.In order to stimulate the knowledge and technology transfer, NANOMAT-EPC’s mission is the following:i. Map and promote organisations involved with nano- and materials technologies in EPC;ii. Organise brokerage events in the EPC to facilitate knowledge and technology transfer in nano- and materials technologies;iii. Organise workshops in the EPC to identify nano- and materials knowledge and technology transfer opportunities;iv. Implement pilot nano- and materials technologies deployment projects. The pilot projects will be bilateral between the EPC and European partners and based on education, training and exchange of scientists as follows:a. Deployment of high conductivity zirconia anodes in solid oxide fuel cells (IPMS and UB)b. Deployment of hybrid CNT/graphene electrodes for supercapacitors (BSUIR and Cleancarb)c. Deployment of nanosensory devices for environmental monitoring using picosecond laser technology (GTU and PSUD)d. Deployment of magnetic nanoparticles for medical applications (IPR-NAS and LZH)v. Produce report with recommendations on how to exploit to nano- and materials knowledge and technology transfer opportunities in EPC.
