Abstract:

Agriculture and food industry in Romania generates large amounts of co/by-products, which are not used and turn into wastes, with negative impacts. The approach of the project PRO-SPER is to develop integrated processes, flexible and interconnected, to transform a number of agro-food by-products in bio-products, with market demand. This approach facilitates the achievement of project goals, complex-coordination and linking of the research organizations that are members of the Consortium, INCDCP-ICMPP, UDJ, ICECHIM, INCDSB and UAV, for improving their institutional performance in the field of nano-and bio-technologies of their application into bioeconomy.

The overall objective of the project PRO-SPER is to increase the impact of research and development activities and innovation of the RDI institutions, by developing and harnessing innovative technological solutions for bio-nano-processing of several by-products from the bioeconomy value chains, for recovering and/or formation of value-added components and their use in order to obtain products with high added value.

Expected results through the implementation of the project (21 new jobs, 23 national patent applications and international patent applications 6 EPO/WIPO; 10 technologies/new products resulting from the project, at a level of technological maturity to enable taking over by the operators, 5 services research and technological research services 10 cheques, 10 experiments cheques services

80 internship of young researchers from and within partner institutions, 50 visits for developing new techniques for working jointly in the Consortium, 30 training internships for new employees, 28scientific papers, 1 joint program CDI, in line with the development plan of institutional partners) have a significant impact on the capacity-building of the partners in the Consortium.

Abstract:

The project proposes a process to improve, by physical modification and phase transformation, the ability of polylactic acid (PLA) to absorb the breaking energy and thus to transform, after a controlled mechanism, the brittle character of PLA breaking to a ductile one in case of the new material (PLA-TOUGH - improved toughness). The new material will be recyclable and renewable, will have the ability to withstand high mechanical strains and deformations, will be well processed into 3D printed filaments and therefore it will be possible to be used in durable applications such as structural elements. The project proposal is in agreement with both the strategic directions of the national research program P2 because it aims to increase the competitiveness of an SME - CARDINAL SRL through research, development and innovation using the expertise of ICECHIM in the process of "know how" conceiving and with subpr. 2.1 because it has a high degree of innovation (innovative material based on renewable resources, recyclable and with properties that control the durability), has practical and concrete results (new polymeric material for diversifing the SME's production) with real impact on the market (3D printing market - in development, in Romania and in entire world). Through the co-funding of the project and the results that will be achieved, the competitiveness of CARDINAL SRL will grow and the company will be encouraged to invest in research and development activities and therefore will be ready to access public and / or private research funds.

The project proposal is in agreement also with the European strategy for plastic materials in a circular economy which considers that the design and production of plastic materials must ensure full fulfillment the needs for re-use, repair and recycling through the promotion of materials designed for specified application, including the renewable, compatible with 3D printing materials those.

Abstract:

The project objective is to develop an innovative method for improving the functional properties of polylactic acid (PLA) used in 3D printing by fused filament method, and so, because of the elimination of the specific weaknesses of this polymer related to the thermal stability and mechanical properties, to be possible to obtain a new material (PLA-GLASS), which keeps the PLA advantages, but shows new functional properties which allow advanced applications. The project will be valorified by implementation of the new procedure at SC CARDINAL SRL and by selling the new material, shaped as filaments, to the companies involved in 3D printing. The market potential is linked to the fact that 3D printing is in expansion technique, including in Romania. The technological and commercial risks will be controlled through a good relationship between the company's management team and the team of the research service provider. The main status and progress indicators at the project finalization are: widening of the products range manufactured by the company, the increasing of production by approximate 2 tons in the first year and by 50 tons / year in the following years, the increase of turnover with 2%, the increasing of the the jobs number with 3-4 jobs, etc. The research service provider has the necessary expertise to develop and to implement the project. Funding only for activities in accordance with the program Innovation Checks it is request and the budget is drawn up according to this program.

Abstract:

The project proposes to carry out a technology for obtaining multifunctional materials based on last generation of biopolymers and bioadditives melt processable into catering food packaging. These packages will comply with the food safety conditions and will have physical – mechanical properties proper to the plastic products that are generally of commodity nature. The national and international novelty and added value of the project is determined by the originality of the propose new conceptual models for realising of new materials with improved thermal stability, small hygroscopicity, melt processable into catering food packaging. The elaboration of new solutions needs inter and transdisciplinary knowledge of chemistry, physics, physics and chemistry of polymers, mathematical statistics, process engineering, scale up and economics. The new technology has a great applicative potential and can be applied on the same industrial platform or on different platforms. All the novelty solutions will be disseminated and will be patented. At present on the Romanian market one can find only packaging made from imported oxobiodegradable pellets which has limited biodegradability. The realising according to the proposed new technology products which in nature will be totally destroyed in a very short time, would turn into the advantaje of beeing the only supplier, on the Romanian market for totally biodegradable products. The technology can be internationally applied by country with the same envoiroment problems as Ramania. The project consortium is formed from 4 partners: ICECHIM (CO), Politehnica University Bucharest (P1), SC Metav CD –SA (P2) and SC ICPAO SA (P3) with complementary expertise. The project manager is doctor and fulfill the eligibility conditions. P1 and P2 has project responsable that are doctors. Because of the great interest for the proposed subject P3 co–funded with 25 % from the entire project fund.
