This project aims at developing environmental technologies for reducing the atmospheric CO2 concentration. The first part of the project evaluates the potential environmental impacts of leaks from CO2
ELBA develops small energy harvesters that use ambient vibrations as power supply. A complete wireless system including energy harvesters, electronics and sensors, has been developed.
Novel electronic chips could be a cost-effective solution to the electronic bottleneck between data servers and computers. Advanced elec- tronics strengthen optical technologies to address the
Phase change materials (PCM) and surface struc- turing combined enable storing and release of heat in the concrete. This will remarkably reduce energy consumption in concrete buildings in the future.
Zn-air batteries in hearing aids to be replaced by methanol based micro fuel cells. The fuel cells will refill within 30 seconds and only need changing once a year.
There is an increasing demand for insulation, in- cluding energy saving windows. The project aims to develop a new generation of high-insulating window frames from composite material.
