This workshop is motivated by the currently ongoing Horizon 2020 INKplant project (INK-BASED HYBRID MULTIMATERIAL FABRICATION OF NEXT GENERATION IMPLANTS), whose general objective is the future incorporation of additive manufactured scaffolds into the daily routine of medical practice, so that the whole society benefits from personalized regenerative therapies.
This CWA is related to two aspects: the identification of Critical Raw Materials (CRMs) embedded in car electronics and the information sharing among all the actors involved (for several reasons and with different roles) in automotive supply chains. This CWA defines a method to support all the automotive actors in identifying the presence of CRMs in car electronics and disassembling/separating/recycling these components in a proper way. The final aim is improving the recyclability rate of CRMs from cars, create a market for secondary CRMs and reuse CRMs in new high-value applications (possibly within the automotive sector).
The GLOMICAVE project is developing a cloud-based genotype to phenotype platform – relying on Big Data Analytics (BDA) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques – and using large-scale publicly available and experimental omics datasets, enhanced with an automatic processing of scientific literature.
The objective of process intensification (PI) in the context of biorefining operations is to lead to a reduction in operation costs, feedstock and energy resources, greenhouse gas emissions and higher yields, while increasing operation safety, by concentrating on technologies which can intensify processing methods and create an integrated biorefinery concept. PI methods in general and specifically for biorefining operations have not featured strongly in the vast standards literature.
The CEN-CENELEC Workshop on 'Definition of parameters required for modelling of the material, cell and manufacturing process behaviour for battery cells for the automotive market' was kicked off on 24 May 2022.
The objectives of the planned workshop are to define basic principles of zero-defect manufacturing (ZDM), based on the terminology, which was recently created in a CEN-CENELEC Workshop and is available as CWA 17918:2022.
This CEN Workshop intends to develop one CWA (Workshop Agreement): ”Unmanned aircraft systems — Counter UAS — Testing methodology”
In the nuclear industry, specific design and construction codes provide a set of essential engineering tools for the design, construction, and integration of nuclear high safety class components and systems.
The application of (photo)electrocatalytical technologies for the reduction of CO2 to CO holds immense relevance for our current and future society with regard to sustainable methods to mitigate CO2 levels in the atmosphere and to reduce the dependence on fossil feedstocks. Electrocatalysis offers a promising solution by using renewable energy sources, such as solar or wind, to drive the electrochemical conversion of CO2 into CO. This process not only helps in the utilization of CO2 as a valuable feedstock but also offers a viable pathway towards carbon neutrality.
The planned Workshop will define Action Research and its role in large scale pilots. It will identify the key stakeholders involved and outline the necessary steps to conduct Action Research including planning, pre-validation, deployment, data collection and analysis.
