Electrospinning system for large-scale manufacturing of aligned 3D fiber matricesContinuous electrospinning system and process for production of thick 3D matrices of aligned polymeric fibers. The matrices obtained with this technology can have aligned polymeric fibers with several patterns along the matrix’s thickness, which size depends solely on the number of layers of deposited fibers, on the fibers thickness and the compaction degree between layers. In this way, the present technology can be applied in varied areas, for the manufacture of products or structures, at the nanometric scale, that depend on high surface areas, such as biotechnology, pharmaceutics and tissue engineering.

Elimination of blade tip vortices of aircraft propellersTECHNOLOGY/PRODUCT OVERVIEW Blade tip vortex is a powerful phenomenon that develops very quickly. However, ‘widening’ the blade tips increases the possibility of greater power and performance, at the same time, the vortex losses generated at the blade tips increase drastically. The solution currently used to reduce the vortices of the blade tips is reducing the angle of attack close to the blade tip. This is how it tries to avoid significant losses. At the same time, naturally, the drag force or the transmittable power decreases. Eliminating or reducing blade tip losses (eliminating vortices around the blade tip) means significant fuel savings and increased lifespan, efficiency, and performance especially when using wide blade tips. The elimination of blade tip loss reduces vibrations, thus reducing internal friction of the structure’s material, thereby increasing lifespan. This results in significant financial savings, e.g. in the case of a modern blade. Due to centrifugal force, the “winglet” used on wings moving in a linear direction cannot be used in the case of a rotating system.

Embedded System for Developing Real TIme Applications (SEDATIR)SEDATIR lets us monitor a real-time application to get a better throughput because the tasks do not include any additional code (library) and the monitoring is done when the routines of the operating system are executed. SEDATIR shows graphically a temporal evolution of the different tasks when they are running on the external platform (see Additional information paragraph). By means of this graphic the user can see the state (run, wait, ready, idle, inside of a critical section) in which each of the tasks is in a specific instant of time. SEDATIR adds a real-time operating system to the application developed by the user. private researcher posted this:

Endocytosis routing sequence peptide for cell delivery systemsA range of cell delivery systems are crafted for intracellular delivery such as cationic lipids, protein transduction agents or cell-penetrating peptides. Despite of the large number of techniques, transport of macromolecules are rare and only a small portion of these systems are capable of transporting proteins and only very few of them are delivering antibodies. Possible ways for macromolecular translocation is through endocytosis. In some existing applications there are cell-penetrating peptides with a residue number of about 20 amino acids and these molecules are triggering the clathrin-dependent endocytosis. In the recent patent a short WYKYW pentapeptide is applied to deliver relatively large cargo (antibodies, for example) inside the cell via lipid-raft/caveolin-dependent manner through binding to ganglioside GM1.

Environmental Quality Assessment of contaminated soilsEnvironmental quality of soils is determined using analytical chemistry methods, with expensive and sophisticated equipment. Toxicity assays provide a global response regarding the danger of contaminated soil to living organisms. However bioassays are based in lengthy experimental procedures (between 7 and 28 days) to provide reliable results. Normalized soil assays use different species of earthworms and collembola that must be grown and maintained in specialized facilities. Partners to further develop the technology and/or to establish commercial agreements along with technical cooperation are sought.

Environmentally friendly colorimetric sensors for detecting hydrogen cyanide (HCN)The main advantages provided by the this colorimetric sensor are: - Detection Limits: The direct reaction between the sensor and the HCN leads to a marked color change with detection limits below 1 ppm. - Selectivity: in the presence of other gases such as CO, HCl, NH3, H2S, at concentrations up to 50 ppm - Environmentally friendly: no heavy metals used. - Reversibility: The reaction is reversible by irradiation with UV light so it can be reused in successive cycles - Minimizing false positives: Regeneration by UV radiation occurs only if the sensor reacted with HCN.Cardinaltech Company S.L. posted this:
Environmentally friendly graffiti removerGraffiti has become a hurdle for most cities, public transportation and private owners, to maintain their infrastructures clean with ease at reasonable costs. Our solution is looking to solve the need of a product that truly works in multiple surfaces, in a relatively short time, without specific safety equipment and training and without any human safety risks (e.g.: strong chemical solvents), while not damaging the original surface. A user-friendly product, that can be used both by professionals and individuals, and that’s also environmentally friendly. We believe it’s hard to find a solution that truly works while tackling all these needs. Link to a video to see its performance: https://youtu.be/bw025FbYmtQ

Environmentally friendly holographic recording materialOur research group has developed a new photopolymer which may be used as a holographic recording material. It is easy to prepare in layers of the desired thickness and has a lower potential toxicity than conventional materials. It is characterized by being environmentally friendly, since it does not contain any petroleum-derived solvents or other components classified as toxic, biotoxic, explosive, radioactive, oxidising, corrosive, inflammable or environmentally hazardous, and no such substances are used to prepare it. The only solvent used is water, thus minimizing any risk of contamination and, at the end of its useful life, it is easy to recycle in aqueous phase. It is possible to automatize all the stages of its preparation, and it enables holograms to be obtained in a single stage without the need for subsequent processing. We are looking for companies interested in acquiring this technology for its commercial exploitation. Innovative aspects: • Due to its characteristics and the fact that during the preparation process, its useful life and subsequent elimination, water is the only solvent used, the negative impact of this material on the environment is minimized. • It does not contain any components classified as toxic, biotoxic, explosive, radioactive, oxidising, corrosive, inflammable or hazardous for the environment. • Although the fabrication process is totally safe for workers, it is possible to automatize all the stages, thereby reducing the production costs. • Layers of different thicknesses may be easily obtained and they may be used at different wavelengths.UNIVERSIDAD DE BURGOS posted this:
Environmentally friendly procedure for the synthesis of aldehydes and ketones from diols/ Procedure for the oxidative cleavage of 1,2-diols using dimethyl sulfoxide as oxidizing agentThe oxidative cleavage of vicinal diols to the corresponding aldehydes or ketones is a highly useful transformation in organic synthesis. Traditional methods for carrying out this transformation encompass the use of lead tetraacetate or periodates, that show obvious disadvantages such as the high toxicity of lead tetraacetate and its use in stoichiometric amounts, that implies the generation as byproduct of big amounts of lead diacetate, also toxic. On the other hand, the use of periodates shows limitations in the scope, as ditertiary diols cannot be used. Therefore, a new method has been developed that uses as oxidant dimethyl sulfoxide, easily accessible and environmentally friendly, for the efficient synthesis of aldehydes and ketones by oxidative cleavage of 1,2-diols.

Environmentally friendly processing of thermosets by two-stage sequential aza-Michael addition and free-radical polymerization of amine-acrylate mixturesEnvironmentally friendly preparation of thermosets for applications on thermosensitive substrates. A two-step curing process, which consists in an Aza-Michael addition at room temperature, followed by UV radical polymerization of acrylates or methacrylates amine formulations without the need of adding solvents. The presence of amines in the structure suppress the radical inhibition by oxygen, which is a typical drawback in radical polymerizations. The invention allows leading the curing in two separate stages with a stable intermediate material, being the process controlled by the amount of amine in the formulation.

EnzoMeal™ - A Sustainable Food Source for Farm-Raised FishAn advanced soybean-based fish feed, EnzoMeal addresses a key impediment to the widespread expansion of aquaculture, the fastest-growing food production sector. Historically, fisheries have used fishmeal as fish feed, but the primary ingredients—wild fish and shrimp—are rapidly dwindling resources, making the feed expensive and unsustainable. Soybean meal presents an attractive alternative. It closely meets the dietary requirements of fish: it is rich in protein content, essential fatty acids, and unsaturated fats, and it has the most balanced amino acid composition of all agricultural-based meals. Yet conventional soybean meal contains carbohydrates that fish cannot easily digest. Airable Research Lab partnered with Battelle to develop a technology that removes nondigestible carbohydrates and increases crude proteins in the soybean meal, resolving the challenges that to date have limited soybean use as a substitute fish feed protein.
