Optimising core operations for safety-critical activity

Tosca Solutions is a campus company based in Trinity College Dublin to offer support for implementing risk management tools customised specifically to the needs of a highly regulated environment.

Lighter structural parts for energy and cost reduction

Superior, simple, scalable and cost-efficient method for increasing the toughness of epoxy resins which allows for the substitution of high strength structural steels by composite parts leads. This leads to lighter and consequently cheaper and less energy consuming airplanes and vehicles and lighter and long-lasting wind turbine blades, pressure vessels and electronic parts.

Technological solutions for the electrochemical storage of electric energy

Tuscan Tech is an innovative startup operating in the energy sector, whose mission is the planning, design, research, prototyping, production and development of technological solutions for the electrochemical storage of electric energy.

Manufacturing of high-performance graphene-based battery packs (G-pack) for energy storage and supply

Ulix Innovation aims to develop, manufacture and commercialise graphene-based battery pack (G-pack) for domestic energy supply and mobility markets. Compared to common Lithium-Ion batteries, the G-pack offers better performance in terms of energy density, power density, durability and ultimately also lower production costs.

Separation of fly ash and similar dry powders in 1 to 100 micron ranges

Fly ash is the by-product of combustion of coal. It is the most produced and landfilled waste globally. The novel technological separation solution that Value Ash Technologies NV has developed is the Dusty Plasma Separator (DPS). It can separate fly ash or other dry (waste) powders in ranges of around 1 to 100 micron in 3 to 4 different fractions at once. It does so in a totally closed system. This eliminates the need for expensive filter systems. This also meets occupational health regulations.

3D printed tools/components in highly wear resistant materials

VBN Components AB is a frontline materials company that develops new wear- and heat-resistant metals in near-net-shape. With a patented process, tools and components are manufactured directly from powder, using additive manufacturing (3D-printing). The materials are pore free with a hardness ranging from 55–72 HRC (600-1100 HV) at present. Launched the world’s hardest steel November 2017.

Treatment of hazardous fly ashes from incinerators to obtain a powerful filler for plastics

COSMOS Fenix® is a new patented treatment by VELAWORKS that makes the classification of these ashes as “product” (end of waste) possible and creates an effective alternative to landfill. Furthermore, the new powder can be used in polymers as filler and flammability tests have proved that COSMOS Fenix® is a tangible replacement of expensive Brominates and Antimony (Sb) few of them classified as toxic and/or carcinogenic for man and wildlife.
