SINTEF projects

The ESA STARS project explores the feasibility of inter-domain routing algorithms in space-based networks to pave the way to a network convergence between terrestrial and space.

Some industrial machine parts wear out quickly. Good foundry technology and modern grain refiners makes it possible to produce parts that last much longer before needing replacement.

IPN HyTemp aims to develop an innovative high-temperature heat pump (HTHP) for industrial applications, based on a reversed Stirling cycle using hydrogen (H₂) as the working fluid.

The NEMEGIS project will contribute to the transition to an SF₆-free power grid in Norway and Europe, without compromising grid resilience.

The project will establish a new measurement method for the smallest plastic particles – nanoplastics. We will map where the nanoplastics come from, test new ways to remove them, and examine how industry and society can contribute to the solution.

SURFER will support Europe’s energy transition by creating more resilient, decarbonised energy systems by advancing hydrogen electrolysers.

The aim of the project is to explore how civilian 5G technologies can be adopted in defence and international peacekeeping operations to enhance operational effectiveness and interoperability.

Phase 1 aims to cut FOWT towing costs by reducing conservatism through better knowledge, validated methods, and a guideline for safe, efficient operations.

The objective of the feasibility study is to assess the potential for developing and implementing an information system for provision of Assistive Technology (AT) that can be integrated into existing Health and Education Information Systems in Uganda...

The project will develop a sustainable value chain for Norwegian skate, a by-catch and underutilised marine resource, by turning it into high-value ingredients for nutraceuticals, food and pet food.

The project will develop a calculation model for the mass flow of sludge from feeding to on-site storage – for open marine fish farms. Proposals for uniform terminology will also be developed.

Ecosystem Monitoring and Scaling for Climate Change Impacts

The overarching objective of INCLUCity+ is to support the development of the 15 minute city (15mC) that equitably integrates the diverse needs of logistics operations and children/teenagers, while addressing socio-spatial inequalities.

To improve the understanding of wind turbine noise generation, propagation and impact on humans, under all Norwegian atmospheric and topographic conditions.

The ReCirc4Future project will explore novel exploitation of the side streams crude glycerol, urea fatty fraction and spent bleaching earth, that arise from omega-3 production.

The VOCSimPRO project aims to modernize and expand SINTEF’s simulation tool VOCSim. By implementing it in a modern programming language and developing new methods for calibration and uncertainty analysis, VOCSimPRO will enable emission analysis...

Can lights increase shrimp trawl catches while reducing bycatch? This project explores how shrimp trawlers can apply light to attract shrimp and help juvenile fish escape.

The goal is to analyse different areas of use for fish sludge, & provide a scientific decision support for identifying the most promising value chain from a resource & environment perspective.
