Heterofunctional Porous Catalysts for Hydrogen Evolution Reaction in Alkaline Electrolyzers – HYKALIN
Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis (AEMWE) is a very promising technology for producing clean H2 at a target cost of 2 $/kg. Like Proton Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis (PEMWE), this membrane-based technology has the advantages of an “all solid” system (coupling with intermittent energy
Reactive Electrochemical MEMbranes Bioreactor for the valoRization of wastewater – REMemBer
Wastewater represents a massive amount of water (13 to 15 million m3 / day in France) that could be used as a potentially worthwhile resource, regardless of seasonal droughts. However, wastewater treatment plants are currently not able to achieve in a cost-effective way a sufficient water quality fo
Electronically reconfigurable transmitarrays antennas for SATCOM ground stations at Ka-band – ARTIKA
ARTIKA is an industrial research project (as defined by ANR) aiming at making major innovations in modelling, optimization and demonstration of ultra-flat electronically reconfigurable transmitarray (TA) antennas for SATCOM ground terminals and the Internet of Space (IoS) at Ka band. Considering the
Humans and Artificial Intelligence Sharing Control and Decisions – HAISCoDe
We propose a research program of 10 PhD theses coordinated by Normandie Université (NU), which federates the most important institutions of higher education and research in Normandy. These PhD grants will be co-funded by Région Normandie, in line with its strategy for research and innovation. The
Osmotic Stress on chip: an innovative tool to screen complex fluids at the nanoliter scale – OSMOCHIP
Solvay is facing today with an increasing demand for studying new formulations with limited environmental footprints and for a wide range of applications. The elaboration of their phase diagram is simple but tedious, since it consists in mixing chemicals by hand or using labscale mixing apparatus, a
Valorization of CO2 through BIOMethanation and INTENSification of gas-liquid mass transfer – BIOMIntens
In the light of CO2 valorization and further reduction of greenhouse gases emissions, the BIOMIntens project aims at intensifying the biological methanation process (BIOM), which itself constitutes a building block of the Power-to-Gas strategy platform for the long-term and seasonal electrical energ
Eulerian numerical modelling of fluid-structure interactions: application to the simulation of biological capsules in flow – CapsEulerianFSI
The objective of the project is to develop an original HPC numerical tool to model the fluid-structure interaction of capsules under flow. The innovative nature of the project is the use of novel purely Eulerian models of fluid-structure interactions under large deformations that are adapted to mode
Complex and isotropic silicide materials based on eco-sustainable elements for thermoelectric devices working in intermediate and high temperature – MASCOTH
A thermoelectric device is able to transform thermal into electric energy (Seebeck effect) and vice versa (Peltier effect). Two challenges concerning materials hinder a large scale production and integration of these devices. The first one is related to the high price and toxicity of the atoms compo
Optimising CNS-targeted neurotensin-peptide-vector conjugates for induction of therapeutic hypothermia – VEC2Brain
Central Nervous System (CNS) diseases are the world’s leading cause of disability. The brain's blood vessels possess unique anatomical and physiological features - collectively known as the blood-brain barrier (BBB) - that substantially limit the delivery of drugs to the nervous tissue. Strategies f
Beyond conventional electrocatalysts: hollow metal nanocrystallites for PEMFC applications – HOLLOW
There is an urgent need to address the environmental and energy challenges that the planet is facing. The main issue at stake is the so-called global warming, which is linked to the combination of two phenomena: an increasing demand for fossil fuels in spite of their limited availability and a conco
