ACE - full scale aquaculture laboratory
SINTEF ACE is a full scale aquaculture laboratory, which is open to all stakeholders and can be used for research and testing.
Laboratories
All our labs have designated contact persons. SINTEF builds and operates important research infrastructure and we have over 100 laboratories that form the basis for our research. From zero-emission buildings, to ocean basins, nano, CO2, electrical engineering and full-scale aquaculture sites - world-leading laboratories, from ocean space to outer space.
Acoustics laboratories
SINTEF's labs cover a large variety of fields in acoustics, including noise, hearing, building acoustics, underwater acoustics, and auralisation.
Advanced materials characterisation - Laboratory
The advanced materials characterization laboratory in Oslo develops techniques and makes use of advanced experimental facilities within the national infrastructure centers NORTEM, NICE, and NORFAB. It also employs modeling frameworks utilizing the...
Alpha Centauri – Field laboratory for testing of solar modules
Alpha Centauri is an outdoor laboratory for testing and characterizing PV modules in a Nordic climate. Here, we can test both monofacial and bifacial PV modules with advanced measurement equipment for irradiance.
Biomass Processing
In the laboratory for biomass processing, we extract and process products from various types of marine, land-based, and microbial raw materials.
Building Construction Laboratory
The main focus of this laboratory is large-scale testing on the climate screen. We can document, develop, and research building materials, components, and entire building components used in energy-efficient buildings that must withstand climate loads...
Calibration of tecnhical ventilation instruments
SINTEF offers fast and reliable calibration of all types of technical ventilation instruments.
Catalysis Pilot Laboratory
The catalysis pilot lab is a laboratory designed to conduct experimental campaigns that simulate industrial conditions for a range of catalytic processes.
Cavitation tunnel
The cavitation tunnel is used to investigate the hydrodynamic performance of different type of ship hulls, propulsors and other hydrodynamic objects.
Cement and Paste Laboratory
We test cement, paste, binders, and mortars on a small scale. In addition, we can assist with control tests and development projects for new materials or research support.
Chemistry Laboratory
The Chemistry Laboratory provides services within inorganic and organic analysis of building products and building materials.
Circulating Water Tunnel
The new Circulating Water Tunnel (CWT) is a test facility dedicated to optical measurement techniques and flow visualization. The tank's measurement section is completely transparent and can be operated either with a free surface or the lid closed.
Climate Stress Laboratories
A climate-adapted building is planned, designed, and constructed to withstand various types of external climate stress. In our laboratories, we can test the building elements' resistance to precipitation, snow load, wind, solar radiation, temperature...
CO2 laboratory, Tiller
The CO2 laboratory at Tiller is a highly equipped test facility for development of post-combustion CO2 capture technologies, as well as a research lab for flue gas pre-treatment analysis and emission research.
Coating Laboratory
We offer laboratory and field testing services in addition to contract research and development. Our laboratories are equipped with modern instruments for coating testing and characterization. Additionally, we have access to a wide range of advanced...
