Advancements in aerodynamics and innovative propulsion systems for quieter and greener aircrafts

Specific Challenge: Significant progress has been done recently in terms of environmental emission (including noise) by the development of Ultra High Pressure Ratio and Ultra High By-Pass Ratio engines. Technology assessments based on the turbofan engine configuration are indicating that there is still remarkable potential inherent in the turbofan engine configuration to be realised to Read more about Advancements in aerodynamics and innovative propulsion systems for quieter and greener aircrafts[…]

New technologies for the enhanced recovery of by-products

Specific Challenge: Securing the sustainable access to raw materials, including metals, industrial minerals and construction raw materials, and particularly Critical Raw Materials (CRM), is of high importance for the EU economy. There is a need for innovative and sustainable raw materials production solutions at lower TRLs to increase the range and quality of raw materials Read more about New technologies for the enhanced recovery of by-products[…]

H2020 Call – Materials for non-battery based energy storage

Specific Challenge: Sustainable energy production can only work well when the specific different energy storage challenges are solved. So, solar panels and wind generators do not deliver energy when no sun is shining or no wind is blowing. Batteries may not be the best solution to face all energy storage needs, due to cost, safety Read more about H2020 Call – Materials for non-battery based energy storage[…]
