Industrial-scale production of diatoxanthin – a high-value product from microalgae with anti-cancer and anti-inflammation properties

NYMOOR will enable design and use of nylon mooring systems for floating wind turbines, reducing material and resource requirements and enabling novel mooring solutions.

The main objective of AirOcean is to reduce environmental footprint and increase energy efficiency of oceangoing vessels by providing know-how for design and application of effective air-lubrication systems (ALS).

Building the biodiversity component of the Digital Twin of the Ocean

SEARCULAR’s core objective is the reduction of marine litter and microplastics generated by European fisheries (demersal trawlers, demersal seiners, tropical tuna purse seiners) and to promote circular economy practices in the fishing industry.

KSP WIND will develop new simulation tools for accurate analysis of wind-powered ships that include aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, propulsion, machinery, control system, and operation, both for short-term time-domain analysis and long-term statistical...

Ammonia (NH₃) has intrinsic risks due to toxicity and flammability.

The project will identify the global food industry needs, considering emerging processing technologies, such as high pressure processing, membrane processing, pulsed electric field and ultrasound.

The PlastiSpread project studies the role of the microbial community in biofilms associated with marine plastics, and how they are influenced by variations in urban WW discharges.
