Background Land-based aquaculture is of increasing interest; however, the supply of fresh unpolluted water is becoming scarce in many areas of the world. This will put increasing pressure on aquaculture businesses to develop recirculation systems . Water quality is one of the most critical

Background There is a great demand for a solution that will provide a technique to analyse the movements of the muscles (motion analysis, motion function evaluation/assessment) at the community level, leading to quicker, more appropriate and more effective treatment, rehabilitation and erg

The START project is developing a dry cleaning unit that can be retro-fitted to machinery and logistical software, to reduce transport costs and improve recycling effectiveness within the farming industry. Agricultural films are vital to modern farming practices and without them high levels of food

A novel polymer processing technology producing engineering grade thermoplastic foam products. Higher production rates, more cost competitive in low runs, suitable for use with standard extrusion machines… the advantages of this new method for producing high quality, low density foamed parts a

A safer alternative replacement for thiourea accelerators in the production process of chloroprene rubber. Thanks to their balance of cure rate, scorch and physical properties,  thiourea based accelerators have hitherto represented the best cure system for chloroprene rubber. The problem is their
