DEsign of Low emission and efficient Hydrogen Internal Combustion Engines – DELHYCE
Europe is defining its trajectory to assume its ecological transition, its “Green Deal”, through the implementation of a set of political initiatives. In front of an inflexible guideline, considered sometimes dogmatic, the European Parliament aims to make Europe the first climate-neutral continent.
TRANSport and interactions of microPLASTics in urban combined sewer overflows and development of mitigation solutions – TRANSPLAST
With proven effects on the environment and health, synthetic polymer microparticles usually called microplastics (MPs) can accumulate in the food chain, release toxic substances or serve as vectors for other contaminants and pathogens. Urban areas are major sources and pathways for the transfer of M
Impact of Inland Navigation on the Environment – INFLUE
The French river network consists of approximately 18,000 km of waterways, of which 8,500 km are navigable. This network includes rivers and canals that have been developed and opened for transport. France has one of the longest networks of navigable waterways in Europe. This mode of transport has t
High energy density thermochemical heat storage for district heating networks – Stock-HD
The Stock-HD project aims at developing the use of renewable energies and improving the performance of district heating networks. It aims to develop a thermo-chemical heat storage system with high energy density (based on chemical sorption) at temperatures compatible with its integration in district
Online Deep anomaly Detection – ODD
Anomaly detection is a challenge per se. It is unsupervised by nature, as abnormal events are rare, varied, and cumbersome to collect. By exploring deep neural networks for representation learning, the main categories of anomaly detection methods are deep one-class classifiers, autoencoders, generat
Automated mechanical lab' and model calibration – AutoMeCal
Extensive use of virtual mechanical design for shaping processes and structural parts makes it possible to use materials more sparingly, reducing product mass and production rejects due to variations in material properties from one batch to the next. The robustness and reliability of such a design i
Development of a new Biocontrol Agent to reduce AflaToxin B1 contamination in maize crops for sustainable agriculture – DEBAAT
This project aims to develop the first biocontrol agent (BCA) from bacterial origin to effectively control aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) contamination of maize crops. AFB1 is a human carcinogenic mycotoxin produced by Aspergillus flavus, a filamentous fungus, emerging on maize in Europe and in France in respo
Fuel Cell Systems and aiR flOw conTrol for grOund tRansportation – FCS-ROTOR
In 2018, transportation accounted for 29% of the GreenHouse Gas (GHG) emissions in the European Union (EU), 71% of which coming from ground transportation. To mitigate the environmental impact of transportation, the EU has targeted a 90% reduction in GHG emissions by 2050 (compared to 1990 levels).
EXtremes, STatistical learning and Applications – EXSTA
Extreme Value Theory (EVT) is the branch of probability and statistics concerned with rare events associated with distributional tails, with numerous applications in various scientific fields where extreme events are of special interest, and in risk management. The most recent years have seen an in
Reducing PGM content for efficient PEM-Water-Electrolysis by 3D porous catalyst engineering and bottom-up electrode design. – 3DCatforPEM
Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is the most advanced technology enabling high purity, high pressure, green H2 production from renewable energies. In current PEMWE, both electrodes (anode and cathode catalyst layers) contain large loadings of platinum-group-metal-based catalysts,
