BIsmuth BasEd LOw Temperature Sofc – BIBELOTS
Hydrogen is rising as one of the possible ways to deliver energy with a low carbon dioxide footprint. Fuel cells, devices converting the chemical energy of H2 in electrical energy appears as an important part of the grid of tomorrow. In particular Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFC) benefit from a high he
Sampled-current voltammetry on an electrode array for metallic trace elements detection in water – EASCVsens
Detecting and eliminating MTEs is of major interest, as they are toxic even in trace level. For example, European drinking water guidelines specify limits of 1 to 10 µg/L for some elements such as mercury, cadmium and lead. Current methods for monitoring these pollutants in water remain costly, and
Time in the Wild: Mastering time during real world navigation – WildTimes
Scientific Objective & Working Hypotheses 1: Distortions of subjective time perception as a function of the moments in real-time transportation. Our first objective will be dedicated to survey the un-/under-explored real-life experience of time distortions. Scientific Objective & Working Hypothese
Flexible and Intelligent Transportation Systems – FITS
The project FITS aims at proposing novel mathematical models and solution approaches in order to develop intelligent tools to help optimizing the delivery of services (such as care or maintenance deliveries) to customers located potentially at home. Service providers have human resources (possibly o
Coupling between Ionic and Electronic Transport in Single-Walled Carbon Nanotubes – IONESCO
Efficient coupling between electronic and biological systems requires an interface for converting electronic signals into ionic (or chemical) signals, and vice versa, ideally with high sensitivity and speed. Unfortunately, the performances and functionalities of present electro-ionic devices poorly
Multiscale modelling of solvent phases for solvent extraction – MULTISEPAR
The recycling of rare earths is all the more important as their extraction is currently mainly carried out by a single country, at a high environmental cost. Liquid-liquid extraction enables these metals to be recycled by separating them selectively. Certain metallic elements, in ionic form, are tra
SUrface plasmon Resonance for In situ detection of Metallic Ions – SURIMI
Originating from either natural sources (such as hydrothermal, eruptive or weathering processes) or a range of anthropogenic activities, metallic elements flow in the Earth water and biota. This phenomenon is subject to investigations across a wide range of settings including the most remote parts o
SMART FRAMEWORK FOR REAL-TIME MONITORING AND CONTROL OF SUBSURFACE PROCESSES IN MANAGED AQUIFER RECHARGE APPLICATIONS – SMART-Control
The main objective of the SMART-Control project is to reduce the risks in the application of sustainable groundwater management techniques worldwide through the development and implementation of an innovative web-based, real-time monitoring and control system (RMCS) in combination with risk assessme
IoT for Supervision and Control of Water Systems – IoT.H2O
Water transport and distribution systems must be carefully monitored and operated to avoid water losses, to safe energy and to protect the assets of the water utilities against damages. In major water transport and distribution systems this task is performed by centralized SCADA (Supervisory Control
Synthetic metabolic and genetic networks for medical diagnostics – SynBioDiag
Organisms have evolved to sense large panels of metabolites and human have used these sensing abilities throughout history. Recently, synthetic biology has expanded and rationalized biosensing by engineering whole-cell biosensors (WCBs) with sophisticated signal processing capabilities. The main adv
