SINTEF projects

The goal of the project Compact offshore condenser skid is to reduce the weight of such a skid by up to 50 percent.

To transport electric power from power plants to customers, a transformer that converts the voltage into the right level is needed. Large parts of the transformer park in Norway are old and expensive to replace. Tunable Infrared Technologies AS, want...

Modern vehicles contain up to ten different heat-exchangers, sometimes more. Due to advanced requirements with respect to product's characteristics, aluminum brazed products are clearly dominant in the heat-exchanger industry. An increasing demand...

Solving engineering challenges in global response analysis of subsea pipelines, umbilicals and power cables.

The EarlyWarn project will develop AI-based monitoring systems to detect and identify problems in the high-voltage power transmission and distribution system, before the problems escalate and cause blackouts or destruction of expensive equipment.

ENERGYTICS will demonstrate how machine learning and artificial intelligence can increase the value of the new smart meters that are currently being installed in all Norwegian homes.

Pressure control and conformance management for safe and efficient CO₂ storage - Accelerating CCS Technologies.

Currently, maintenance planning in the railroad domain is predominantly performed manually and involves: Crew scheduling (assigning maintenance tasks to crews dependent on skill set) and job shop scheduling (assign time slots for vehicles to depot...

Natural gas contains many different components (water, H₂S, CO₂, N2 and helium) in addition to natural gas. CO₂ removal from natural gas is in many cases a requirement for the gas to contain meet the legal requirements and natural gas network grid...

Forming of massive Aluminium in demanded geometries is performed through forming tools that apply high pressure on the material in certain way. Often, several forming steps are necessary. One reason is that the forming pressure would be too high to...

QUAntitative measurements of partial saturations in Brine-CO₂ SAturated Rocks at pore scale.

SINTEF was the research partner in the innovation project OptiSite, led by Spacemaker (now part of Autodesk). The project contributed to developing Spacemaker from a start-up idea to an established product with international presence.

Biomass to energy (BtE) and waste to energy (WtE) plants in Norway need to comply with stricter emission limits and/or adjust to tighter profit margins, and EU have implemented a further reduction of emission limits from medium (scale) combustion...

Flexible propulsors for marine applications.

Good control when feeding farmed salmon in sea cages is essential. The growth potential is not met with too little feed, while too much feed is bad for both economy and environment.

Condensed tannins (CT) are regarded as anti-nutrients as they may reduce feed intake, nutrient digestion and production in livestock. However, the inclusion of small amounts of CT in the diet of ruminants may decrease problems with gastrointestinal...

GoJelly will deliver revolutionary solutions in the battle against two major environmental threats - microplastic pollution and jellyfish population increase - and transform these into opportunities for new products that can provide benefits to...

Greening the Fleet – Sustainability transitions in the maritime shipping sector.
