A collection of case histories of successful collaborations between High Technology Network Laboratories and businesses. These are tangible and customisable examples of the application of new technologies, products, or services that show how industrial research can meet the needs of innovation.
The laboratory offers a solution to optimize flux-weakening control strategies for internal permanent-magnet synchronous machines, also used for light electric vehicles (e.g. motorcycles).
This activity focused on torque management during fast...
The laboratory has developed a set of IT tools to support public administrations in the implementation of energy refurbishment of school buildings to the status of Near Zero Energy Buildings (NZEB).
The "TEESCHOOLS" toolkit is designed to be simple...
The aim of the project is to prolong the shelf-life of fresh filled pasta using bioprotective cultures endowed with antimicrobial activity against pathogens or spoilage microflora. The project is divided in two phases: 1) evaluation of microbial...
The product allows to carry out an energy performance assessment in municipal wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). Following a preliminary data collection and related statistical processing, specific energy performance indicators are introduced in...
Patented system for intelligent management and automated control of wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). The system uses robust and cheap probes to measure indirect signals, such as pH and redox potential (ORP), in order to reduce the construction...
The cosmetic industry is increasingly interested in the development of innovative cosmetic formulations characterized by a reduced number of functional ingredients of natural origin in order to respond both to new market demands and to the new...
Metal Replacement is the replacement of metal materials (steels, aluminium alloys, cast iron...) with high performing polymeric materials. The recent developments of new and better performing thermoplastic materials allow applications to be extended...
The 100L prototype plant realized (upscalable at 150L) allows the neutralization of liquid waste products of the analysis laboratories and verification of the treatment before the final discharge into the sewer. It can be installed at the...
The project has realized solar demonstrators that combine the decontamination of water containing organic substances to the conversion of solar energy into hydrogen. The production of hydrogen represents in this way an added value to the proposal of...
The grape ripening degree at harvest is one of the main factors influencing the quality of wine. The parameters most frequently used to monitor the ripening degree of grapes are sugar content, pH, acidity, and phenolic composition. The latter is...
In the field of extracorporeal circulation and assisted respiration, the possibility of adding sensors to the polymeric disposables currently on the market would allow to monitor constantly the patient's condition and, therefore, to personalize their...
Development of a 24 SNP (Single Nucleotide Polymorphism) markers set for the parallel analyses of multiple of molecular markers associated with earliness and resistance to low temperatures in tomato. SNP-based markers are based on single DNA base...
Pulmonary administration of protein drugs or vaccines in the inhaled powder form is an alternative to administration by injection. The technology stems form the project Pulmomed (www.pulmomed.eu). Proteins at high purity level were expressed with a...
Development of a set of 24 SNP markers (single nucleotide polymorphism) dedicated to the parallel analysis of 192 samples to test genes / markers associated with characters of interest, such as quality and low-toxicity gluten. SNP-based markers...
The VALSOVIT project has been proposed as a tool of technological innovation for the valorization of the waste of the wine production chain for the production of high added-value substances using sustainable technologies. The main results obtained in...
The project has developed innovative technologies for the production of fresh and processed pork products featured of high nutritional quality. Plant extracts, sources of omega-3 fatty acids and natural antioxidants, have been incorporated into pigs’...
Rivers, drainage and irrigation channels maintenance produces high amounts of waste biomass that can be divided into two macro-types: wood residues that are normally recovered and supplied as fuel to biomass plants and herbaceous residues that are...
The JUMP project has developed and tested a sensorized platform based on an intelligent platform of force that, through the support of cameras for tracking, is able to provide information on sports performance through effective, ergonomic and usable...
Availing of new Open Source technologies in the ICT field, the project has experimented innovative hardware and software solutions, that allow an aware use of the water resource at the individual user level and the grey and meteoric water reuse...
Italy is one of the world's largest consumers of pesticides. IRRAOP solves the problem of the management of pesticide residues in sprayer tanks: to date there are no validated and effective systems or services able to avoid the dispersion of these...
