ZERMEG - Zero Emission Retrofitting Of Existing Galvanizing Plants
Method to optimize existing galvanizing plants consequently with the goal of zero emission and zero waste enterprises, to minimize operating cost including benchmarks and three case studies
Development of methods and procedures to automate the operative production control and scheduling considering the aspects of sustainability
The production order doesn't only influence logistic and operational ratios, but also shows effects on the environment as well as ergonomics and the staff's psychology. Aim of the project was to develop a method to optimize the job order planning in consideration of an integrated evaluation in terms of sustainable economic activity.
Waste heat utilisation and use of renewable energy sources in a metal-working enterprise
Use of waste heat and covering of the remaining energy demand by the renewable energy sources hydropower and biomass in a metal-processing company.
Material utilization of end-of-term textiles
Mechanical processing of the non-reusable part of collected end-of-life apparels (e.g. cutting, sifting, etc.); development of marketable application for the obtained short fibers in the field of construction materials (e.g. bitumen modification)
THECLA
Bio-Minimum-Lubrication
Development of a Minimum quantity lubrication system employed in metal working industry using an oil-in-water emulsion based on renewable primary products.
Improvement of resource efficient use of wood
Modelling of wood processing in order to demonstrate the developments' impacts on performance
Data-based processes for the creation and formulation of production data for complex industrial plants.
Development and evaluation of a process to automatically create models from existing production data of industrial plants. These models can be used to optimize the production process and plant equipment (scrap, quality, use of raw materials and energy) or to detect and predict faults.
Ecologically friendly resin impregnation of rotating machines with the use of the joule effect
Windings of rotating machines or electrical generators (e. g. wind and water power generators) are impregnated with resin. A new technology using the heating effect of current is investigated. The high efficiency of heating with the joule effect results in quick heating of stator leading to fast gelling of the resin, which implies low emission.
Wood-processing employing a superimposition of ultrasonic vibrations
Development of wood-processing techniques employing high-frequency ultrasonic vibrations in terms of applications in the woodworking industry.
ZERMEG II - Zero emission retrofitting method for existing galvanising plants
ZERMEG II is the follow up project of ZERMEG, which was commissioned after the first call of the Austrian Factory of the Future program in 2001. The project developed a method to revamp existing galvanising plants in order to operate them with a maximum reduction of the use of chemicals and maximum recycling.
Apple & pear cascade: more value added in the Mostviertel region through bio-cascading
Creating a concept for the bio-cascading of apple and pear pomace in the Mostviertel region for an increased value added through innovative local products. Development of strategies for the implementation of a pilot plant.
De-lacquering as a service
Development of the service of de-lacquering in industrial plants on the basis of pulsed high pressure water with a new, energy efficient high pressure pump. Further possible applications will be searched for and evaluated.

Entwicklung von Methoden zur Automatisierung der operativen Produktionssteuerung unter dem Gesichtspunkt des nachhaltigen Wirtschaftens
Die Reihenfolge, in der Fertigungsaufträge abgearbeitet werden, beeinflusst nicht nur logistische und betriebswirtschaftliche Kennzahlen, sondern zeigt auch direkte Auswirkungen auf die Umweltrelevanz sowie auf die Arbeitsergonomie und Arbeitspsychologie. Ziel des Projektes war die Entwicklung von Verfahren zur optimierten Auftragsreihenfolgeplanung unter Berücksichtigung einer ganzheitlichen Bewertung im Sinne des nachhaltigen Wirtschaftens.
Ressourceneffizienzssteigerung durch experimentelle Optimierung der Dampfbereitstellung und durch Reduktion der Produktionsabfälle in einem metallverarbeitenden Betrieb.
Das Projekt baut auf den Ergebnissen des laufenden Projekts "Abwärmenutzung und Einsatz erneuerbarer Energieträger in einem metallverarbeitenden Betrieb" auf. In diesem Projekt wurde bislang unter Anderem festgestellt, dass fast die Hälfte des Erdgaseinsatzes zur Dampferzeugung aufgewendet wird. Auf Basis bereits durchgeführter Berechnungen soll experimentell untersucht werden, inwieweit sich die Energieeffizienz durch Absenken der Dampftemperatur und durch teilweisen Ersatz des Dampfes durch Heißwasser steigern lässt. Eine weitere Steigerung der Energieeffizienz soll dadurch erreicht werden, dass betriebsinternes Abfallmaterial als zusätzlicher Brennstoff in einer Festbrennstofffeuerung verwertet wird.
Increasing of the resources-efficiency by experimental optimisation of steam production and by reduction of production residues in a metal-processing factory
The project is based on the results of the currently running project "Use of waste heat and renewable energy sources in a metal-processing factory". In this project it was found, that nearly the half of the consumption of natural gas is needed for steam production. Based on calculations already carried out, it is planned to investigate experimentally the possibilities of increasing the resource-efficiency by lowering the steam temperature and by replacing steam by hot water. Further increasing of resource-efficiency shall be achieved by use of internal residues as an additional fuel in a solid fuel furnace.
