SINTEF projects

Europe needs more green energy. Offshore wind power is an expanding market for Norwegian maritime industry.

In this project, we aim at increasing our competence and developing new polymer or hybrid capsule demonstrators using a range of techniques and materials. Nano- and microcapsules are currently of high interest in many applications where protection of...

New solutions for orally administrated drugs are in demand by users, society and the pharmaceutical industry. The overall goal of NutriDrug is to develop a novel and efficient oral drug delivery system for the treatment of cancer and infectious...

The project aims to reduce development and operating costs of air navigation service provision.

Project PJ 28, A Very Large Demonstration (VLD) project, will demonstrate the benefits that specific promising SESAR solutions will bring in a large and two mid-size airports, where traffic congestion daily takes place during the peak season and...

The project proposes the development of a remotely provided aerodrome air traffic service by a "multiple" and/or "centre" setting. Those settings help to combine ATS services from various aerodromes in a centralized control room independent on...

The project is articulated around two SESAR Solutions, emphasising all of the key airport processes. Integration of airports into the ATM network will be addressed through sharing information in a timely manner between the network operations plan and...

State-of-the-art solar cells are efficient – but are even more so when they are kept clean. A cleaning robot developed by Norwegian researchers enables solar panels to deliver at full capacity. The objective of the project was to develop a self...

EMPIG, in cooperation with Kværner, will develop an always-clean cooling system (ACS). Through multidisciplinary competence at SINTEF, and a close collaboration with Kværner, that will manufacture and assemble the main parts of the ACS prototype, the...

The project will focus on dynamic airspace configurations (DAC) and dynamic mobile areas (DMA), which enable more flexible response to traffic demand and regional/local performance objectives.

BEST is SESAR Exploratory Research project focusing on a new way of data handling. By creating new data classification methodologies it will enable the application of System Wide Information Management (SWIM) one of the main results of SESAR.

Biodegradable gillnets are being tested in Norway since 2016 as an attempt to reduce ghost fishing and marine litter caused by lost gillnets.

An innovative concept for time-dependent monitoring of CO₂ plume expansion by combining active and passive seismic data.

In the EU alone, around 2.5 million people are allergic to β-lactam antibiotics and this figure increases every year due to excessive drug intake. The main objective of COBIOPHAD project is the development of an integrated biophotonic device based on...

EARTH focuses on separation and procedures to improve runway and airport throughput considering wake-vortex, weather, environment and noise, while taking into account future traffic demand, aircraft capability and airport configurations.

The ERIFORE will realize the European potential to consolidate its place as a world leader in biomass based research and innovations. ERIFORE builds on a new firm alliance aiming to establish open access distributed forest bioeconomy research...

This project would investigate how smart grid technology can be utilized in the electric distribution grid to reduce interruptions in the electricity supply and socio-economic costs of interruptions.

In Flexi3D we will develop new technologies that can meet industry needs: a rapid and precise pick, place & verify solution that enables profitable future automation solutions.
