It is urgent to find solutions to fighting against harmful gas emissions, unsustainable fuels, waste management and contributing to a more sustainable, circular economy. One way of tackling these challenges is through the research into and production...
...innovative class of graphene based nonlinear optical materials in visible and infrared domains and to build a device that incorporate the synthesized materials. A composite material graphene oxide (GO)- silicophosphate (SP) as bulk/films and GO/rGO (reduced GO) films, prepared by sol-gel, will be investigated...
...microplastic (MP) and nanoplastic (NP) environmental fate and hazard assessments utilise spherical, monodisperse polymer particles that do not represent the continuum of partially degraded, irregular-shaped MPs in the natural environment, there is a strong need for environmentally relevant test and reference...
...some of our research and innovations. We will report on our efforts in geophysical monitoring of near-wellbore events, such as leakage and cement integrity failure, using borehole wavefields. Additionally, we will discuss using wellbores as antennas during CSEM monitoring of CO2 and present the latest...
...is to prepare the ground for large-scale implementation of CO2 capture in the European cement industry. The project has been running for 3,5 years, and will be concluded the 31st of October. https://blog.sintef.com/sintefenergy/final-stretch-cemcap/ ...

Industry and research communities from five different countries are aiming to develop fibre reinforced plastic materials that are more resistant...
...age range have the highest rate of abortions in Norway. In order to determine whether free hormone-based contraception changes contraception habits and abortion rates among women in this age group, the Directorate of Health asked SINTEF to carry out a project in which 20-24 year-old women in two Norwegian...
FORSEL will develop tools and methodologies that will help Norwegian grid companies to utilize the opportunities for flexibility in the power grid and make good choices when it comes to future load and the connection of new electricity customers to the power grid. FORSEL's overall goal is to make the...
...by SINTEF Energy Research and TU Delft shows that implementing CCS in industrial facilities can result in significant CO₂ reductions at a minimal cost to the public. These findings have been published as a paper “Is CCS really so expensive? An analysis of cascading costs and CO₂ emission reduction of...
...investigated for the use as bipolar plate material for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells. The coating consisted of 45 vol% graphite, 5 vol% carbon black and 50 vol% epoxy binder. The coating was applied by a spraying technique followed by hot-pressing while the binder cured. An interfacial contact resistance...
...cells. We have developed a reliable method, using thin gold wires, to measure the interfacial contact resistance between the bipolar plate material and the porous transport layer during fuel cell operation. The ICR values were found to be in the same range as the ICR values measured ex situ after fuel...
...strength in an aqueous environment as a result of its designed, biphasic morphology and displays many of the qualities required in a PEM. The new ionomer membrane thus shows good proton conductivity (63 mS cm–1 at 80 °C and 100% RH), while retaining mechanical integrity under high temperature, hydrated conditions...

Webinar 10 minutes will be used for the presentation and 20 minutes for an open discussion. This webinar is intended to assist with better understanding...
Osmond, University of Oslo The webinar will present results and ongoing work addressing seal potential of faults and stratigraphic intervals vital to successful CO2 storage within the Alpha closure at Smeaheia. Thorough characterization and evaluation of potential seals is essential for derisking any...
...project is to develop a simulation framework, which will incorporate a more complete description of the wind field, turbine, the support structure, and their interaction in order to better understand the physics of the entire system. The complex wind field will be calculated adding interactions from...
...consequence of de-institutionalisation, mental health care pathways have changed, with tasks now being taken care of by a range of primary and secondary health and care providers. This raises concerns about thefragmentation of care. The primary objective of this project is to gain knowledge on good user...
Materials and Chemistry is developing a method that can improve the diagnosis and treatment of many different diseases. This method may lead to an easier process to treat the exact place in the body with the right amount of medicine. For many diseases, like cancer and diseases of the cardiovascular and nervous...
...a key role in the green transition to solve the global climate crisis, for example by enabling zero-emission transport (e.g. electric vehicles and ferries) and by storing the energy from intermittent renewable sources. The global demand for batteries is expected to skyrocket the next ten years, which...
