Development of a continuous hydrogen-carbon nanofibers production line
With the development of a hydrogen-carbon nanofiber production in a continuous process carbon nanofibers can be produced in an economic way and at the same time access to environmentally friendly hydrogen is enabled.
Chemistry, process design and sustainable economic development
The results of this project were to deliver the basics for chemical process engineering taking into account the requirements of sustainable development. The proposed results will have to be in conformity with ecological, economic and social requirements for sustainability. Hence the processes will mostly be based on renewable resources.
Sustainable energy supply: Production and import of biomass and bio fuels
The project gives an overview of the supply and demand for biofuels specifically dealing with the situation in Europe and that in threshold and developing countries using case studies as examples. Cases: Sweden and France as importing countries in the EU, and Senegal as a (potential) exporting nation.
Economical Utilisation of residues from slaughtering and meat processing
By utilising fresh raw materials, the process of producing meat and bone meal can be avoided and products of higher quality may be obtained.
Solar thermal cooling system consisting of a parabolic trough collector field and a steam jet ejector chiller
A solar thermal cooling system consisting of a parabolic trough collector field and a steam jet ejector chiller has been developed. The necessary components were built and tested and finally put together to get an operating pilot plant at the test facility.
Increase in Sales of Vegetable Oils from Austrian Oilseeds by Increase of the Technical Grade with Regard to the Demands of the Varnishing Industry
The cultivation of flax (linseed) in Austria should be enhanced by arrangements to increase the technical grade of linseed oil produced. Austrian agriculture should be enabled to provide raw materials sufficient in batch and technical grade for the Austrian varnishing industry.
"NAWARO-Peat" - Peat replacement products by regional renewable resources
Possibilities to stop the peat usage in horticulture by using renewable resources and biological wastes which are regional available. Efficient economical as well ecological solutions for the usage of alternatives to peat, development and testing of treatment technologies which are necessary to create such a substrate in laboratory and field scale.

Concept for the preparation of the demo project "KernCraft Austria"
Compilation and integration of activities carried out in the field of cascade utilisation of stone fruits seeds ("KernCraft Austria") and planning of a demonstration project to start implementation of KernCraft Austria.
Essential oils instead of neurotoxic substance - protection from pest by the use of innovative application of pheromones
Corn production in Europe is seriously threatened by a new pest. Highly toxic insecticides are currently the only means of control. Biological signals (Semiochemicals) offer an environmentally friendly alternative, which is yet to be made available for corn as for many other crop plants.
Kräuterhexen (herb witches) - Creation of value by remedies and wellness-products made of regional raw materials
Regional manufacturers and suppliers of products made of renewable raw materials shall be summarized to develop a common product line with corporate identity and corresponding quality management to sale more and increase the value in the wellness sector.
Quantitative and qualitative identification of relevant secondary raw material flows in Austria
In the course of the raw material initiative, the European Commission classified a number of elements and basic materials (including rare earth elements, gallium, germanium, platinum group metals and tantalum) as critical raw materials because of their doubtful future access. In order to operate appropriate recycling of these particular critical raw materials, the primary aim of the present project is to identify the waste streams and to investigate their quality and the quantity of critical raw materials. As a basis for presented aim a "Secondary Raw Material Map Austria 2030", which represents the theoretical, the real and in the future reachable potential of this critical secondary raw materials, is developed.

Entwicklung von geschweißten Vollholz-Parkettelementen
Die Entwicklung der zur Patentierung angemeldeten Holzschweißtechnik als innovative, ödologische Produktionstechnologie zur Herstellung von Vollholz-Parkettelementen, die keine holzfremde Substanzen wie Leim oder Thermoplaste etc. enthalten.
Entwicklung eines ganzheitlichen Vorgehensmodells zur Berücksichtigung von Aspekten des ArbeitnehmerInnen- und Umweltschutzes bei der Gestaltung von HSCProzessen
High-Speed-Cutting (HSC) in Kombination mit Minimalmengenkühlschmierung bietet ein hohes Potenzial zur Ressourceneinsparung von Hilfsstoffen in der Metallbearbeitung. Einerseits verringern sich Anschaffungskosten und der Entsorgungsaufwand für Kühlschmierstoffe (KSS), andererseits wird eine Reduzierung der arbeitsmedizinisch problematischen KSS-Nebel-Emissionen erwartet.
