By Type

Today's environmental and sustainability concerns are on top of the list of priorities for the industry, society and governments. The urgent need to solve problems of air pollution and climate change is challenging the industry to meet new quality and environment standards for production, supply and product development as well as waste reclying. Green technologies, IoT, smart apps and the cleantech industry are fast emerging not only from the traditional industry but also from the Startups and research organizations that launch disruptive and very innovate solutions and products into the market. SmartCities are developing fast while launching new technology calls to the industry, Startups and research organizations. There is a great amount of research funding available for any player in the are of green technologies such as desalination, solid waste management, recycling etc. The demand for innovation in environmental friendly technology is growing and there are lots of opportunities for cooperation and join development.

Seeking a solution to eliminate spatter from the welding process in steel assemblies production We are seeking a solution to eliminate spatter from the welding process. The solution should be able to be incorporated into an actual GMAW process. Welding spatter is usually measured by the quantity of balls or welding beads that are added to the assembly parts (which latter have to be removed) and/or the amount of sparks that jump from the arc weld. We are seeking innovative new methods that are capable of efficient and complete removal of the spatter effect during the GMAW process.

Seeking effective means of eliminating malodours in the air and/or on surfaces This European client is an established manufacturer of a range of consumer products, continually searching for ways to enhance their users’ enjoyment of their products and the environment they are used in. For many consumers, improving the air space they live, travel and work in has become more important, and using traditional air fresheners are no longer sufficient, with a more effective, ‘invisible’, even natural solution being required. Such solutions can be applied to consumer products to ensure the perception of clean air, or be used to refresh the environment around the consumer when odours are apparent. The client is searching for new and effective means of eliminating malodours in the air and/or on surfaces (e.g. prevent the smell from lingering on clothes or skin), as residue can be deposited from the odours and easily trapped in materials. Whilst many manufacturers solve this with simple masking of the compounds with fragrances, our client is specifically looking for a solution which can trap the malodour when it is released and convert it into another compound; hence eliminating the malodour and not allowing it to resurface when the masking agent has worn off

Seeking eco-friendly bleaching and oxidative cleaving process for waxes Waxes are typically make up of linear or branched-chain hydrocarbon chains and can contain polar functionalities like e.g. ester or amide groups. Their importance has been well recognized, especially with the growing demand of modern consumer products like packaging, cosmetics and pharmaceutical. Plant-based or renewable waxes are also gaining favor in recent years due to higher sustainability compared to fossil based waxes. We are seeking sustainable green oxidative cleavage process that can convert renewable ester waxes, like rice bran wax and sugar cane wax, to similar end products obtained by conventional processes. Many oxidative cleavage processes are already established in the industry, but not many are eco-friendly. Furthermore, with the shifting focus from fossil waxes to plant-based waxes, alternative oxidative technologies do result in chemically different products from different plants. Here the company is keen to explore modern bleaching technologies or to work with technology-partners with bleaching experiences on renewable materials. The company is open to partners from any country and to a variety of cooperation. Research cooperation agreements with research organizations might yield into publications or consequent R&D contracts. Depending on the stage of technology readiness, an out-licensing of the process is possible or a joint venture might be a way to further develop for feasibility studies for a pilot scale up.
