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...
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...
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a low environmental impact fuel capable of reducing considerably the emissions of sulfur oxides and nitrogen oxides, as required by the European regulation (directive 2012/33 / EU). The CLEANPORT project provided 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...
IPERCER has made it possible to develop a series of innovative tools for the ceramic tile industry, especially for the production of large porcelain stoneware slabs. The main phases of the production process have been analyzed to fully understand the...
The development of new categories of fiber-reinforced composites aim to satisfy the necessities of transport and construction sectors, to increase both material performance and process sustainability. Since 2010, the laboratory has been developing...
The evolution of machine tool industry is linked to the stakeholders’ need to constantly increase productivity, which means constantly improving the applied technologies. The research for increased sustainability, combined with the reduction of...
Today, there is a strong industrial demand for integrating new functions on machines and plants, to make them more and more intelligent. In this context, condition monitoring is a crucial point. Using techniques that allow evaluating the state of...
Magnetic refrigeration, based on the magnetocaloric effect, is a new cooling technology alternative to traditional gas compression. It promises reduced environmental impact, higher energy efficiency, lower noise, and vibrations. This technology...
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...
It has been a long time since it is no longer possible to increase the performance of the calculation systems by increasing their working frequency, and it has also been a long time since the solution to the problem was identified in the use of the...
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...
MetAGEAR was born from the initiative of the InterMech regional laboratories MO.RE. and MechLav in order to develop innovative tools for the design and manufacturing of gears and transmission to be made available for the industrial base. MetAGEAR is...
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...
Motion planning for robotic manipulators is usually considered a problem with well-settled solutions. However, also in this field, new applications, often non-standard, pose new challenges. Among them, the transporation/manipulation of liquid...
