Research and Development

New polymer compounds

Description

The research project deals with the search for new polymer compounds of used plastics.

Aim

The project is aimed at the research and experimentation of new compound polymers of used plastic. Specifically for this project, a special technology laboratory is being made available in cooperation with the University of Pisa. The four phase project based on industry investments for the preparation of plastic materials belongs, as a result of the agreement concluded between the Tuscany Region and the Province of Pisa for regional development to the priority projects in the region. The experimenting and testing of new compound polymers are the centre of attention; activation of a chain, which generates new products by means of material recycling and production of new goods, also with compatible characteristics for movement components. The project has the special feature of having committed one of the main actors for the processing of used plastics as a partner, exclusively for collection in the whole region.

Project H2

Project H2 – hydrogen compound (Ministry for Universities and Research)

Description

Aim

  • Realisation of concrete applications, in particular, in the field of motion systems. This should on the one hand reduce the environmental contamination caused by road traffic in towns and on the other hand support alternative mobility systems.
  • Rapid agreement for the use of hydrogen also for engines, which are based on traditional and already available technologies; thus today there can be effective dealing the problems so the 'system' (infrastructuring, legislation, components, mobility models, etc.), which in any case also should be considered with respect to the use of innovative technologies such as for example fuel elements (an own activity series was dedicated to it).
  • Experimental tests with regard to the reduction of environmental loading and the efficiency enhancement of the whole process, the methods and the technologies for hydrogen production, in which use is made both of energy sources gained from renewable energy sources and also from the exclusion produced by means of the refining of hydrocarbons or other industrial processes.
  • Research and Development of industrial IT applications and enabeling technologies in the field of process and product safety. In the limelight, besides the safe production of energy are, above all, systems for monitoring parameters for hydrogen combustion.
