Solar desalination plant for sea water, waste water or brineA new system of seawater desalination has been developed, consisting of a solar heat collector made of a transparent film surface in a pyramidshaped tent and another dark one (to retain the maximum amount of heat) material inner truncated pyramid parallel to the former, generating a layer of heated air. Heat accumulates at the vertex, where high temperatures are achieved. This allows the evaporation of seawater injected by micronebulizers, resulting into moisture-laden air being pulled by a central axial tube leading to a 'cold spot' located underground. Here a network of galleries, filled with the stored water, provides cold temperature to dissipate heat and to condense the steam into pure water. Partners to further develop the technology and/or to establish commercial agreements along with technical cooperation are sought.

Solar energy use for water potabilization by electrodialysisA Spanish research group owns the know-how for the desalination of saline water for human consumption or irrigation by means of systems of electrodialysis powered by photovoltaic solar energy. The main advantages are that it is non-polluting and has a low maintenance cost. The technology is fully developed and useful for organisations dealing with water supply problems. A partner to set up the electrodialysis-photovoltaic system in its facilities and/or carry out feasibility studies is sought. Innovative aspects: The desalination system makes use of renewable energy, so it is respectful with the environment and not contributing to the climatic change. Desalination system for remote areas with access to saline reservoirs, where the supply of electricity is particularly expensive or even non-existent, or for coastal zones where there are saline aquifers and the hydric resources are scarce.UNIVERSIDAD DE BURGOS posted this:
Solar trackers based on parallel kinematics for its integration into Smart GridsThe technology involves a machine that supports solar modules (photovoltaic, thermal or hybrid) increasing significantly its energy efficiency. The main feature of both solar trackers is its simplicity of the machine and its parallel kinematics working principle. Its structure provides a robust support and wider distribution of efforts and a great modularity. Thus, these systems adapt better to the geometric constraints for tilting and facing and restrictions of size and weight of the supporting structure.

Solid sensory film for in situ detection and quantification of Iron, Aluminium and MercuryThe development of simple, fast and inexpensive colorimetric sensors for timeless and in-situ detection of trace amounts of iron, aluminium and mercury in aqueous media by non-specialized personnel has become a major challenge, mainly because the presence or absence of these compounds can lead to a number of problems, e.g., contamination issues. As a result of the above described requirements, a new low cost polymer material has been developed and patented for the rapid visual colorimetric detection and quantification of iron, aluminium and mercury. A precise quantification of the species can be done in minutes using a picture taken with the camera of a mobile phone, and a broad quantification can be visually achieved.

Soy- based Diallyl Ether FormulationAirable has synthesized a replacement for the common reactive plasticizer diallyl phthalate (DAP). Diallyl phthalate is commonly applied as an additive in the production of unsaturated polyester resins, specifically fiberglass-reinforced composites. These composites are used in the manufacture of boats, pipes, and automotive parts. DAP may also be used as a crosslinker in rubber and PVC formulations to improve flexibility and durability. However, like most phthalates, DAPs are toxic to humans. Airable’s new chemical achieves the same allyl functionality without the hazards associated with the aromatic ortho diester associated with phthalates.

Soy-Based Paste Wax to Replace CarnaubaAirable Research Lab has synthesized a soy-based wax that can replace carnauba wax in formulations. Carnauba wax is sourced from the carnauba palm tree, which grows only in Brazil. Carnauba has useful properties such as a high melting point, UV ray protection, water resistance, and extreme density, making this source material popular across multiple industries. However, today’s supply chain issues encourage the use of local sources. In addition, harvesting and transporting the raw material has a history of environmental and social implications within Brazil. Furthermore, the very density that makes the raw material attractive also necessitates that synthetic chemicals (usually petroleum-based) be added to form a wax paste that can be easily applied. With these challenges in mind, the Airable team produced a bio-based, locally and ethically sourced wax to replace carnauba wax. The Airable product can be used for home DIY products and industrial applications.

Soy-Based Polyols for Flame-Retardant PolyurethanesResearchers have demonstrated the use of soybean oil in developing eco-friendly, flame-retardant polyurethane (PU) foams. PU foams are overtly flammable, and when they combust (or decompose), they form carbon monoxide, hydrogen cyanide, and other toxic products. Researchers developed soy-based polyols to replace traditional petroleum-based polyols, used the soy-based polyols to develop several foams, and tested their combustion behavior. Results indicate a quality product.

Soy-based Waterproofing Wax EmulsionAirable Research Lab has formulated a soy-based wax emulsion for all waterproofing applications. Water-repellant coatings are important for outdoor clothing and equipment. Textiles for outdoor use (e.g., hiking and camping) are generally treated with a hydrophobic coating that, over time, loses its efficacy. Protective coatings can be reapplied, but the common ones include a silicone or fluorinated compound, both of which may release toxic chemicals. The Airable wax emulsion is bio - based. In addition, it provides protection after one simple spray application and subsequent drying.

Speech Gap Test – novel automatic speech recognition of Mild Cognitive ImpairmentThe recognition of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is usually regarded as a prodromal stage of Alzheimer’s disease, which mental disorder may take years to develop and is really hard to diagnose therefore it is a really difficult task for the insurance company when they screen the health status of the potential customer. The existing diagnostic test procedures (MMSE, Clock-Drawing, ADAS-Cog) are not able to accurately recognize the subclinical phase of the MCI. The main problem in the diagnosis of MCI is that the current tests are very time and labor consuming, complicated, furthermore they can be applied only by experts and cannot be used as a screening test. However recent studies reported that MCI causes slight changes in the speech of the patient. The technology called Speech Gap Test is a mobile application developed by the researchers of the University of Szeged, which is able to help its users independent of their language and education to determine the chance of dementia with around 80-90 % accuracy by applying novel automatic speech recognition (ASR) using the latest deep learning technologies. It can inform the insurance company about the risk factor of dementia and also recommend visiting the nearest specialist to the patient in order to get proper diagnosis.

Spider silk-based sustainable materialsBackground Spider silk, particularly dragline silk, has exceptional mechanical properties which make it an attractive source of natural fiber for different materials. Dragline silk is strong, tough, light, wettable, biodegradable and biocompatible. However, the adoption of spider dragline silk as a widely used natural material is hindered by its water sensitivity, i.e. embrittlement in dry environments, structure complexity, and unclear spinning mechanism of production. Attempts to produce synthetic spider silk are ongoing but large-scale manufacturing is still problematic. The present invention is a production method of artificial dragline silk using photosynthetic bacteria.
