Using nanocapsules containing cancer drugs, researchers have succeeded in attacking tumours with surgical precision. One of the ways to manufacture such capsules is with minute droplets of super...

International IT researchers have limited contact with the industry, and tend to stay in their offices, working on concepts and studies. Norwegian researchers work closely with companies – and...

SINTEF scientists have found that it could be more energy-efficient and cheaper than previously thought to capture CO₂ by turning it into a liquid. CO₂ captured in this way can be loaded directly...

A new Norwegian fishing rod is about to be launched onto the world market. The inventor calls it fly fishing’s equivalent of carving skis. The silhouette against the sky is the same as it’s been...

SINTEF takes an extremely serious view of the forgery of a MARINTEK report, and has reported the incident to the police as a case of document forgery. The Norwegian daily Dagens Næringsliv (DN)...

Could refrigeration technology – against all the odds – kick-start CO₂ storage in the North Sea? All over the world, scientists are on the hunt for solutions that will allow CO₂ to be captured...

Sushi is more popular than ever. However, many of the ingredients are imported from Asia. But Norwegian researchers are now cultivating an alternative to the popular Wakame seaweed salad that...

Household bacteria thrive on the walls and ceilings of dairies, and can also be found in raw milk and cheese-making equipment. These bacteria are among the causes of minor differences in the taste...

No, this isn’t ice, but hydrates, ice-like crystals that are capable of burning, because they consist largely of natural gas. Hydrates can form when oil, gas and water are being transported in...

One pleasant evening in front of the TV not long ago, the future suddenly appeared in my life. A programme raised questions about the use of nanosilver in a number of products. Among the examples...

Kontakt: Mario Ditaranto  After three years of development and testing, SINTEF, Siemens, and partners have produced a well-functioning oxyfuel gas turbine based power process. During the...

Sprinkler systems are now being threatened by a hidden enemy – bacteria that cause corrosion, the article authors write. Photo: iStock/matsou Viewpoints In recent years, sprinkler systems have...

Focusing on land use and football pitches as the basis for our ‘yes’ or ‘no’ vote on solar parks trivializes the complicated problems of our climate and nature crisis, writes the columnist. This...

Steel is a cornerstone of modern society, but its production accounts for approximately 7% of global CO₂ emissions. To achieve climate targets, it is essential to find emission-free alternatives....

SINTEF Energy Research-led project SKARV kicked off yesterday, aiming at reducing bird collisions with wind turbines while maintaining power production. The project is a spin-off of FME NorthWind...

In January, the SINTEF-led ACCSESS project held an open event in Brussels, exploring how CCS can enable the decarbonisation of European industries without compromising international...

Twin transition: This new book focusses on the key factors for successful digitalisation in various industries. Illustration: SINTEF Manufacturing Notes “Digital technologies and tools are...

In this langoustine “hotel,” each individual has its own room, and can be lowered into cool water. This provides better conditions for the animals – and better quality when the delicacy reaches...
