Energy storage is important as we build more renewable energy into our systems. Using its own iron-air battery design, Form Energy aims to build large grid storage facilities to balance the multi-day ...
The BrefurbiSH project is working toward a process for faster and more efficient refurbishment based on data analysis, digital work instructions and cognitive support for the operator. Moreover, its ...
Refurbishment is nothing new. Many discarded household appliances are already being overhauled, repaired and offered for sale again. To make this process more efficient and economically profitable BSH ...
For many products reuse, repair, remanufacturing, repurposing and upgrading may offer a significant potential benefit in terms of value preservation and reduced environmental impact. These inner ...
There is a direct link between moisture and life-shortening technical failures n wind turbines, independent research by the German Fraunhofer Institute confirms.
The new project BeFORE - Barrier for recycling - in which Sirris is involved, focuses on recyclable material innovations for ’contact sensitive’ plastic and paper packaging with high quality barrier ...
When the height of a tower doubles, the effect from the turbine quadruples. The modular wooden solution developed by Modvion provides the world with tall towers that are not only close to climate neutral, but also store CO2 during their lifetime.
Steel is a circular material because it is 100 per cent recyclable. In addition, it is collected, sorted and recycled on a large scale, and there is a market demand for these recyclates. Despite these ...
A growing group of manufacturing companies are exploring circularity and they are early in the transition process. We see mainly internal leverages, such as building up top-down & bottom-up ...
The continuous growth of wind energy is highly dependent on energy infrastructure becoming more digitally connected. Yet the more connected energy infrastructure becomes, the more vulnerable. This is ...
Polyurethanes can be used in many applications, due to their excellent combination of properties. Protective PU top-coats should withstand weathering degradation and prolong projection of steel ...
