Yarrowia lipolytica oleochemicals based on odd chain fatty acids – YaLiOl
The objectives of the YaLiOl project are to: 1) to advance the engineering of Y. lipolytica for the production of odd-chain fatty acids (OCFA); 2) to develop a fermentation medium based on sugar beet molasses; 3) recovering the OCFAs, characterizing them, and transforming them into oleochemical
Microfluidic devices for the sequential reduction of CO2. – MF-CO2
The objectives of this project are the following: i) development of microreactors to perform electrocatalytic reactions under microfluidic conditions. ii)The synthesis of formaldehyde par sequential reduction of carbon dioxyde into carbon monoxide and the subsequent conversion of carbon monoxide i
Multi-Image Restoration and fusion: from Applied Mathematics to the imaging Industry – MIRIAM
This research program deals with the quality enhancement of digital images. Specifically, we consider the increasingly common situations where several acquisitions of the same scene are available, possibly through a video sequence. An issue of growing importance is to fuse these im- ages in order to
Topological IV-VI semiconductor heterostructures: A platform to study topological phase transitions and strain sensitive topology – TOPO-PLATFORM
Topological insulators (TI) are insulators that present conductive states at the interface that they form with conventional insulators, protected from dissipation by certain symmetries of the system. In the lead salts (PbSnSe/Te) that we are studying the symmetry involved is crystal symmetry rather
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
Anisotropic polymer thermoelectric materials – Anisotherm
ANISOTHERM project focuses on the fabrication of new polymer thermoelectric materials and to explore how their processing in thin films by crystallization, orientation and soft doping can improve their thermoelectric (TE) properties. This pluridisciplinary project involved four laboratories ( Strasb
Dynamic Constitutional Systems-toward selection of functions – DYNAFUN
The key objective of DYNAFUN is to provide a research programme with a deep knowledge and expertise on Dynamic Constitutional Systems, with new insights into the basic features that control multivalent recognition towards natural selection of functions. Research will be guided by the ambitious scien
Integrative approach of secretion pathways in the mammary epithelial cell: molecular dissection of milk fat adaptability – MilkChEST
The project operates a unique biological material: the goat species in which a natural invalidation of the gene encoding the alphaS1 casein (CSN1S1) revealed a close relationship between mechanisms of biosynthesis and secretion of casein micelles and milk fat globules (MFG). «Defective« animals at t
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
Potential impacts of CO2 geological storage on groundwater quality – CIPRES
France is committed to reducing its greenhouse gas emissions, which in particular includes the transposition of the European Directive on the geological storage of CO2. Indeed, groundwater protection is not explicitly taken into account in the European Directive on CO2 storage. The main actions ment
