user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Development of an Internal Reforming Alcohol High Temperature PEM Fuel Cell Stack' (IRAFC) targeting Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

The main objective of the proposal is the development of an internal reforming alcohol high temperature PEM fuel cell. Accomplishment of the project objective will be made through: • Design and synthesis of robust polymer electrolyte membranes for HT-PEMFCs, which will be functional within the temperature range of 190-220oC. • Development of alcohol (methanol or ethanol) reforming catalysts for the production of CO-free hydrogen in the temperature range of HT PEMFCs, i.e. at 190-220oC. • Integration of reforming catalyst and high temperature MEA in a compact Internal Reforming Alcohol High Temperature PEMFC (IRAFC). Integration may be achieved via different configurations as related to the position of the reforming catalyst. The proposed compact system does away with conventional fuel processors and allows for efficient heat management, since the “waste” heat produced by the fuel cell is in-situ utilized to drive the endothermic reforming reaction. The targeted power density of the system is 0.15 W/cm2 at a cell voltage of 0.7 V. Thus, the concepts of a catalytic reformer and of a fuel cell are combined in a single, simplified direct alcohol (e.g. methanol) High Temperature PEM fuel cell reactor. The heart of the system is the membrane electrode assembly (MEA) comprising a high-temperature proton-conducting electrolyte sandwiched between the anodic (reforming catalyst + Pt/C) and cathodic Pt/C gas diffusion electrodes. According to the configuration and the operating conditions described above, the IRAFC is expected to be autothermal, highly efficient and with zero CO emissions. In addition, the direct consumption of H2 by the MEA (fuel cell) and the electrochemical promotion effect is expected to enhance the kinetics of reforming reactions, thus facilitating the effici

user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Secretariat of the European Technology and Innovation Platform on Renewable Heating and Cooling' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

This proposal aims at supporting the work which has been carried out by the secretariat of the European Technology and Innovation Platform on Renewable Heating and Cooling since 2011. The role of the secretariat is to assist the stakeholders of the RHC-ETIP in coordinating activities related to the definition and implementation of an innovation strategy to increase the use of renewable energy sources for heating and cooling, and to foster the growth and the market uptake of the relevant industries. The secretariat provides support to the structure of the RHC-ETIP, by organising meetings, events, and relevant consultations, and by assisting with the preparation of relevant documents (both of technical and of political nature) to raise the profile and importance of the renewable heating and cooling sector, and its related technologies. This proposal also addresses the need to enlarge the membership of the RHC-ETIP by involving more closely national policy makers, as well as other relevant stakeholders (related industries, and socio-economic experts) in its work. By supporting interactions between several stakeholders representing industry, research and academia, from different renewable heating and cooling technologies, and by gradually including complementary sectors and expertise, the SecRHC-ETIP will assist the RHC sector in strengthening its growth and competitiveness both vis-à-vis traditional heating and cooling technologies, as well as with respect to competitors coming from non-EU countries.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Advanced concentrate treatment for integrated membrane based water reuse systems' (ACTIWATE) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Drought and water scarcity are major global challenges increasingly having a significant impact on countries of the EU. The Commission estimated the economic impacts of drought events in the last 30 last years to be 100 billion € at EU level. In particular Mediterranean countries are heavily affected and now prioritise water reuse. High quality water reuse based on dense membrane treatment is expected to be progressively applied to provide the additional water resources required. However environmental concerns and the high costs associated with membrane concentrate management limit its application, especially in inland locations. ""ACTIWATE - Advanced concentrate treatment for integrated membrane based water reuse systems"" aims at the investigation of integrated RO and NF concentrate treatment concepts with minimized costs and environmental impact. Applying the sustainable Zero Liquid Discharge principle, it combines methods for the removal of bulk and trace organics with a subsequent desalting system based on electrodialysis or forward osmosis to further concentrate the brine and then precipitate the salts or use WAIV for salinity removal. The focus will be on the optimum removal of micropollutants and foulants to allow a complete recycle of the concentrate. The 3-year project will be executed at the University of Technology Sydney, Australia (outgoing host) and the University of Applied Sciences Northwestern Switzerland (return host) offering the research fellow excellent opportunities to further develop his scientific skills in cutting edge technologies and analytical methods. Executed in two countries severely hit by recurring droughts and where substantial investment in inland reclamation plants will be made, he will gain first hand knowledge of water reuse and ot

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Technologies, materials and thermal-hydraulics for lead alloys' (TECLA) under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

The most promising candidates for the beam target of ADS are lead and its alloys. It was both on the basis of their properties and acquired experience in the field of liquid metals (LM) that Pb-Bi liquid eutectic has been selected as spallation material and as coolant for an ADS DEMO reactor. Even if the Russians have developed the technology of the Pb-Bi alloy, it is necessary to carry out several investigations in order to demonstrate the applicability of that technology and/or to develop new systems. Besides, thermal-hydraulic experiments, which cover fundamental topics typical for any ADS system, have to be performed in order to define analytical correlations for lead alloys and to validate codes for design. The final goal of this activity is to demonstrate whether a sub-critical system using Pb or Pb-Bi as spallation target and coolant is really technologically feasible.

user: Describe how 'Free form fabrication of ceramic shells for investment casting by stereolithography' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The application of rapid prototyping (RP) techniques in investment casting offers an economical alternative to traditiona! methods. Basically, RP has concentrated on the expendable pattern requirement with two different approaches. The first is to use the output of the RP system directly as the expendable pattern. The second alternative is to use the RP piece in the production of wax injection tooling. The elimination of some of the steps involved in these procedures would drastically reduce lead times and fabrication costs. The industrial objective of the project will be the direct fabrication of ceramic shells. By using stereolithography techniques where a suspension consisting of ceramic powder is dispersed within an ultraviolet-curable solution, the ceramic suspension will be photocured, layer by layer, fabricating a sintered ceramic shell, after the binder has been removed. The development of a new process technology capable of manufacturing cerarmic shells for prototypes or production requirements, faster, at a lower cost and maintaining a high degree of quality, will undoubtedly enable European foundries to remain competitive against Pacific Rim manufacturers offering products using lower labour and capital equipment costs.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'Biactantial Agreement in the Endangered Gongduk and Mönpa Languages of Bhutan', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

Gongduk and Mönpa are two Sino-Tibetan languages of Bhutan with no known relatives within the language family. Despite their unique morphosyntactic feature of biactantial verbal agreement, both languages have been largely overlooked in the literature. Gongduk and Mönpa are also at a high risk of extinction. Therefore, it is of absolute necessity that we write their descriptive grammars, based on a natural speech corpus, before they disappear forever.When a people lose mastery of their mother tongue, they often suffer from a loss of identity, and subsequently a plethora of emotional, mental, and social problems. Realising that the description of the world’s languages can provide indigenous communities with the basic set of materials to promote their linguistic heritage and counteract such negative developments, the United Nations has declared 2023-2032 the International Decade of Indigenous Languages. At the same time, linguistic description offers science the opportunity to conduct ground-breaking typological and historical linguistic research. The exhaustive description of Gongduk and Mönpa will enable us to compare their verbal agreement systems to those of other Sino-Tibetan languages and infer the implications for the origin and development of verbal agreement and the language family as a whole.Bhutan’s unique cultural and linguistic heritage forms one of the cornerstones of its national identity and development philosophy. Technological advances present both a risk and an opportunity for safeguarding this heritage. The Lo-Rig project team will apply and develop innovative methods that speed up and simplify the transcription of recorded texts, using technologies such as Automatic Speech Recognition, and software applications for the subsequent analysis and dissemina

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Sixth Framework proposal for the project 'Climate change, hydrography and the paradox of plankton extinctions'.

assistant: **Objectives**

A fundamental question in evolutionary ecology and palaeoceanography is why so many groups of planktic organisms are so susceptible to extinction despite having a wealth of traits (huge population sizes, cosmopolitan distributions, rapid reproduction rates) that classic evolutionary theory suggests should make them practically immune to extinction. This proposal aims to address this paradox by evaluating the role of changes in surface ocean hydrography as a trigger for extinction of plankton species. I will utilise the excellent fossil record of planktic foraminifera to reconstruct the palaeobiogeographic nature of extinction events at high resolution (~500 year), and to generate contemporaneous palaeoceanographic records of surface ocean hydrographic gradients across entire basins. These records will allow me to test different hypotheses for the role of hydrographic change in plankton extinctions. This proposal fulfils the objectives of the Marie Curie OIF action because it will enable me, as a researcher, to work and develop scientific collaborations in one of the world¿s largest and most important marine research institutes ¿ Scripps Institution of Oceanography (SIO), USA. The combination of world-class expertise at SIO in both marine evolutionary ecology and palaeoceanography makes SIO uniquely placed to realise the objectives of my proposed research fellowship. The return phase will allow me to capitalise on the experience and training gained at SIO by working in one of Europe¿s leading centres for palaeoceanography and evolutionary studies using foraminifera ¿ Cardiff, UK. This opportunity is fundamental to my obtaining a full-time research position and a career as a professional researcher. This fellowship will be conducted under the auspices of the international

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Monetary policy under uncertainty and asymmetric information' (1994-1998) targeting Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Research objectives and content In my research I wish to study the effects of firms, workers and consumers' decisions on investment and consumption (and hence on the level of employment and wealth of an economy) under conditions of uncertainty, total or partial lack of information and incomplete financial markets. My objective is to assess analytically the effectiveness of monetary policy in such a framework, through the use of the General Equilibrium methodology and computer simulations. An approach which turn out to be, even if at the very beginning, very fruitful, Donati (1996) and Donati - Polemarchakis (1996) to understand the effects of monetary policy on consumption and investment decisions, on employment and on the aggregate welfare of an economy. Training content (objective, benefit and expected impact) In the literature, papers on monetary policy in general equilibrium are very theoretical: equilibria are not computed explicitly in numerical terms. My line of work, with the use of computer simulations, is in a direction of more realism and allows to understand the effectiveness of the policies pursued on each type of agent's choices. The functioning of a market economy with fiat" money, moreover, has remained, also in the literature, almost uncertain. "

user: Draft the 'Objectives and Scope' section of a Seventh Framework proposal for the project 'Costs of Natural Hazards'.

assistant: **Objectives**

Cost assessments of damages of natural hazards supply crucial information to policy development in the fields of natural hazard management and adaptation planning to climate change. There exists significant diversity in methodological approaches and terminology in cost assessments of different natural hazards and in different impacted sectors. ConHaz provides insight into cost assessment methods, which is needed for an integrated planning and overall budgeting, and to prioritise policies. To strengthen the role of cost assessments in natural hazard management and adaptation planning, existing approaches and best practices as well as knowledge gaps are identified. ConHaz has three key objectives. The first objective is to compile state-of-the-art methods and terminology as used in European case studies, taking a comprehensive perspective on the costs of natural that includes droughts, floods, storms, and alpine hazards. ConHaz also considers various impacted economic sectors such as housing, industry and transport, and non-economic sectors such as health and nature. It will consider single and multi-hazards, leading to direct, indirect and intangible costs. ConHaz moreover looks at costs and benefits of risk-prevention and emergency response policies. The second objective of ConHaz is to evaluate the compiled methods. The analysis addresses theoretical issues, such as the principal assumptions that underlie economic valuation of damage types, as well as practical issues, such as the qualifications needed for data collection and quality assurance. ConHaz also looks at the reliability of the end result by considering the accuracy of cost predictions and best-practice-methods of validation. A central issue of the evaluation is to compare available methods with end-user need

user: Describe the novelty, innovation potential and advance beyond the state of the art for 'Beads on String Genomics: Experimental Toolbox for Unmasking Genetic / Epigenetic Variation in Genomic DNA and Chromatin' (BEADSONSTRING).

assistant: **Innovation**

Next generation sequencing (NGS) is revolutionizing all fields of biological research but it fails to extract the full range of information associated with genetic material and is lacking in its ability to resolve variations between genomes. The high degree of genome variation exhibited both on the population level as well as between genetically “identical” cells (even in the same organ) makes genetic and epigenetic analysis on the single cell and single genome level a necessity.Chromosomes may be conceptually represented as a linear one-dimensional barcode. However, in contrast to a traditional binary barcode approach that considers only two possible bits of information (1 & 0), I will use colour and molecular structure to expand the variety of information represented in the barcode. Like colourful beads threaded on a string, where each bead represents a distinct type of observable, I will label each type of genomic information with a different chemical moiety thus expanding the repertoire of information that can be simultaneously measured. A major effort in this proposal is invested in the development of unique chemistries to enable this labelling.I specifically address three types of genomic variation: Variations in genomic layout (including DNA repeats, structural and copy number variations), variations in the patterns of chemical DNA modifications (such as methylation of cytosine bases) and variations in the chromatin composition (including nucleosome and transcription factor distributions). I will use physical extension of long DNA molecules on surfaces and in nanofluidic channels to reveal this information visually in the form of a linear, fluorescent “barcode” that is read-out by advanced imaging techniques. Similarly, DNA molecules will be threaded through a na
