SINTEF projects

Reducing atmospheric GHG through offshore ocean seaweed farming and conversion to climate positive products or solutions.

The competence building project (KSP) MultiFlow SUITE contributes to digitalization of the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Large amounts of data will be exploited in development and training of digital tools that reflect how gas, oil, and water flow...

The concept of Positive Energy Districts (PEDs) has increasingly been integrated into the climate neutrality discourse. PEDs have also been purported to hold the key to transform the urban energy system and to be an important pillar of smart cities.

OptiPlan is developing an innovative optimisation-based scheduling engine. The engine will eventually be embedded in VISAVI maintanance planning tool (LivePlan) making VISAVI a major actor in the international market.

HumanTech is an EU-project aiming to make the construction industry safer, greener, and more efficient.

The main idea of the AI-Dentify project is to develop, test and validate a novel software to be commercialized by Boneprox AS as a service platform, which is scalable to the global market. The solution will make it easy for the dental industry...

The objective of the project is to get rid of a waste challenge and at the same time create products of value, demonstrated at pilot scale. In addition, the effect of circularity in quantification of sustainability is studied.

BioSynGas aims at improving many aspects of biogas production plants in Norway. Biogas plants face numerous challenges most of them are related to the so called digestate, a by-product that should be exploited as it contains important nutrients that...

As an efficient transport method, maritime shipping has been the backbone of the world economy, accounting for over 75 % of the global trade by volume. Consequently, international shipping is responsible for 2 % of global greenhouse gas emissions. To...

Norway is 2.4 % circular (2020) so there is substantial room for improvement. Increasing circularity will require a complete re-organisation of our society bringing challenges but also opportunities.

The project addresses Norway's ambition to decarbonise the offshore petroleum sector while retaining its international competitiveness.

CO2SMOS aims to develop cost-effective routes to produce high added-value bio-based chemicals from bio-based industrial CO₂ emissions and renewable energy sources (green H₂ and biomass).

The aim of the project is to contribute to the further development of a Virtual Reality (VR) system for virtual workshops that enhances collaboration, creativity, and ideation at work.

The goal of Cool'em is to develop a superior cooling technology based on the elastocaloric effect.

In DeMoKab, the objective is to investigate how the insulation materials currently used in high-voltage direct current (HVDC) cables withstand temporary overvoltages that may occur in future power grids.

Fish on their downstream migration in rivers often encounter hydropower dams and intakes and tend to follow the main flow into the turbines where they may be injured or killed. While fine-meshed racks with a bypass can prevent fish from entering...

FME NorthWind (Norwegian Research Centre on Wind Energy) will bring forward outstanding research and innovation to create jobs and grow exports, and to facilitate the sustainable development of wind power.

Emissions from petroleum production stand for over 25% of Norway's total CO₂ emissions, and these must be significantly reduced for the country to reach its ambitions in the Paris Agreement.
