INDEE3 supports sustainable cooling and heating in India by promoting natural refrigerants, reducing emissions, and boosting cold chain efficiency in food, seafood, and building sectors.

The global food system is currently facing great challenges, motivated by climate change, population growth, environmental and health-related concerns. Existing food resources are not efficiently exploited, and the unhealthy dietary habits of modern...

Development of efficient, robust and environmentally friendly refrigeration systems for small fishing vessels that help reduce food waste, emissions and improve the quality of the catch.

UTANTOX is about reducing heavy metals in marine residual raw material. The aim is to develop a method for reducing cadmium in by-products from Iceland scallops.

Food fraud threatens food safety, public health, and the effective functioning of market forces in the food sector. The EU co-funded project WATSON aims to reduce the risk and frequency of this type of fraud in the European market.

A Visual-Tactile Perception and Control Framework for Advanced Manipulation of 3D Compliant Objects.

INDEE+is coordinated by NTNU (dep. of energy and process engineering) and includes several partners, where SINTEF Ocean is one of them. INDEE+ is an umbrella project covering several dededicated projects supporting the Indian refrigeration and Air...

Currently, cusk is mainly used as a raw material in the production of stockfish and salted fish. However, it is also a goal to increase the value creation and profitability of cusk, and industry actors see fillet production as a possibility. In this...

In this project, the objective has been to develop a handheld instrument for measuring water content in dried salted cod (clipfish). It has been documented that point measurements using near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) are well-suited for this...

It is both politically and commercially desirable to extend the season and increase the proportion of Norwegian fruit on the market, but this requires high quality and optimal handling. All Norwegian fruit warehouses want to contribute to building...

For year-round operation, reliable raw material supply to the market, and increased profitability in the whitefish industry, live storage of cod is an important contributor.

Technology for 3D imaging of tomato plants – a key to future systems for almost fully automated robotic care and harvesting of tomato plants.

Technology for efficient reduction of bacterial growth and biofilm formation on food industry machinery.

Better storage of industrially produced potatoes for less wastage, higher quality and reduced content of acrylamide.

Gentle Robotic Manipulation of 3D Compliant Objects.

BIOCYCLES aims to increase the sustainability of today's bio-based industries by creating a new biomarine production. This production is based on the cultivation of crustaceans that recycles and fully utilises rest raw materials and converts them...

Optimisation of produce quality and storage conditions to reduce loss during long-term storage of root vegetables in Norway.
