Farmed fish suffer if there is too little oxygen in the water. A system that can display oxygen concentrations may make it easier to supply this essential gas if the water becomes oxygen-poor.
Tonnes of waste from standard plastic products have been uncontrollably released into the world’s oceans, where they gradually break down. But how harmful is this plastic to living organisms, and what is it in these plastics that is so damaging?
SINTEF is proud to announce the launch of the Horizon Europe project COREu, the largest Research and Innovation project in Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) ever funded by a European programme.
Kristian Solheim Thinn, a research scientist at SINTEF Energy, has scientifically determined the most effective way to cool down your favourite drink, just in time for Christmas and New Year's.
Road pricing may soon be replacing toll charges on Norwegian roads. But researchers still don’t know if this will help to reduce and regulate road traffic.
Energy efficiency measures in buildings can offer Norway a three-fold benefit – by contributing to avoiding an energy deficit and high electricity prices, and to achieving its stated climate change mitigation targets for 2030 and 2050.
The 1,283 workers in the aquaculture sector who have responded to a recent HSE survey are not anxious without good reason. Sixty-two percent have experienced ‘near misses’ in the last two years. However, there is another threat that is making them...
Waterway transport is considered the most sustainable inland mode of transport after rail, due to its low societal costs. And when all transport modes move to zero-emission, waterway transport becomes the transport mode with the by far least societal...
Recent research indicates that the best environmental solution is in fact to install less insulation in our homes and consume more electricity for heating. But first, some preconditions have to be met.
Today, products that utilise rare materials are for the most part manufactured in China. However, the EU has recently decided to boost its raw materials supply security. Researchers and the minerals industry are now looking to Norway.
Collaboration is necessary to reduce energy consumption and move to alternative fuels.
Sick and injured farmed salmon are a problem, but researchers have recently developed an implant that uses sensors to gather information about the welfare of individual fish.
Changes to the climate, the energy situation, and the market have resulted in a need for higher standards for effective modelling tools that can be effectively utilised by hydropower producers and other stakeholders in the power market.
Basic knowledge about digital substations and the analysis of data traffic were on the agenda at the National Smart Grid Laboratory in early November.
With REE Minerals as a partner, a new EU-funded project will establish a European value chain for extraction and processing of rare earth elements.
