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.
Terra&Acqua Tech Laboratory has developed:
- the localization and georeferenced mapping of nursery areas for veracious clams in lagoon zones, to be used as a decision support tool for the expansion of current nursery areas;
- a process for the...
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 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...
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...
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...
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...
