user: Describe how 'COMBI-COMBUSTION" GAS DIESEL ENGINE FOR LNG TANKERS (LIQUID NATURAL GAS)"' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

The aim is to replace the steam turbines of the propulsion of LNG tankers by Diesel engines able to burn gas; innovation of the present demonstration consists in using mixed gas (at 4 and 350 BAR) in the Diesel engines without derating and with minimizing power for gas compression.On a 135,000 m3 LNG tanker the fuel oil saving per year of this Diesel solution is considered to be about 15,000 tons.For a series of 4 such tankers, the payback time of the investment (extra cost of the Diesel electric propulsion compared to steam turbine propulsion, plus the cost of the project) is calculated at FIVE years.- Economical comparison between steam turbine plant and Diesel electric one.- Test on WARTSILA DIESEL VASA 32 and 46.- Feasibility of Diesel electric propulsion for a LNG carrier1. THE CONTEXT IN WHICH THE TECHNOLOGY IS OPERATINGThe present solution of the propulsion of LNG tankers uses steam turbines (and these ships are the only merchant ships in that case) driven by steam obtained in boilers fed by the gas coming from the tanks : the (- 163) liquid gas cannot be totally insulated and the evaporated part (boil off) is sent to the boilers to be used.Existing engines using gas to-day burn either low pressure gas (4 BAR), or high pressure gas (350 BAR) necessating high powered compressors which are expensive in investment as well as in operation; these existing engines are currently used for onhsore power stations at a constant RPM and with a constant output.2. INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGYInnovation of the present project is to burn mixed gas (at 4 and 350 bar) in a Diesel engine which will be used in a full size demonstration: the engine will be run with different outputs as it is the case on board ships and all corresponding measurements will be recorded.3.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'Novel approaches to conserve our european heritage : bioremediation for building restoration of the urban stone heritage in european states' under Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

BIOBRUSH is a 6-partner consortium of European scientists, industrialists and conservators formed to study the feasibility of using bioremediation to restore stone buildings in European cities. This innovative approach will select appropriate microorganisms and delivery systems so that treatment combinations can be tested in the laboratory and then on buildings where performance and risk will be assessed under the different climatic conditions of Northern and Southern Europe. The 7 work packages require full collaboration between scientific partners and the end-user conservators and industries. Outcomes will be disseminated by WWW, monographs, reports and research papers. A culture collection for conservation use will be lodged in existing European microbial collections and a new treatment process based on bioremediation will help to arrest damage to the European cultural heritage caused by urban pollution.

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Clean buildings along with resource efficiency enhancement using appropriate materials and technology' (CLEAR-UP) under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Objectives**

Clear-up presents a holistic approach to the reducing operational energy use in buildings. By development and novel use of nano-materials it aims to increase energy performance in heating, ventilation, air conditioning (HVAC) and lighting systems, and to improve indoor air quality using catalytic purification. Clear-up’s solutions are designed for retro-fitting existing buildings and of course for new constructions. It will achieve this by addressing four key components which control the indoor environment: • Windows. Clear-up will advance the practical use of shutters and electrochromic window foils which reduce the building cooling load and along with light-guide technology, reduce the need for artificial lighting. • Walls. Clear-up will use photocatalytic materials for air purification and nano-porous vacuum insulation in combination with phase change materials to passively control temperature. • Air Conditioning. Clear-up will advance technologies for demand controlled ventilation and improved air quality. • Sensors and control provide an underpinning technology for Clear-up’s approach. New sensors will be developed, and their use optimised for the operation of smart windows; demand controlled ventilation; and catalytic purification. Clear-up will develop, install, measure and evaluate technological solutions in the laboratory, in a large-scale testing facility and in real world applications. Its approach will be demonstrated at the UN Climate Summit in Copenhagen, 2009. The safety of new materials will be considered; it will propose inputs to standards and environmental product declarations for its technologies. Clear-up will also investigate environmental and economic lifecycles for components and systems. The practical issues of exploitation will be addressed in

user: Write clear, measurable objectives and define the scope for the project 'Energy harvesting from CO2 emission exploiting ionic liquid-based CAPacitive mixing' (CO2CAP) under Horizon 2020.

assistant: **Objectives**

When two solutions with different composition are mixed, free energy of mixing is released. This phenomenon was deeply investigated in the last decades in order to harvest the so-called salinity gradient power. One of the most incipient technology that allows to harvest this energy is the Capacitive Mixing (CapMix) and its working mechanism is based on a fluidic electrochemical cell, similar to a supercapacitor. Since this mixing phenomenon holds true for both liquids and gases, my idea is to harvest energy from anthropic CO2. The energy density stored in the CO2 emission is tremendously higher than that stored in salinity gradient and theoretically estimated as high as 1570 TWh/year. Since ions are needed in CapMix process, with CO2CAP I propose for the first time to exploit a green ionic liquid (IL), i.e. a bio-derived molten salt at room temperature, both as electrolyte and CO2 absorbing medium in a CapMix cell. The principle consists of flowing a concentrated CO2 gas stream, alternated to vacuum step, in the IL during the charging/discharging of two electrodes. The CO2 will induce an electric double layer (EDL) expansion of charges at the electrode/IL interface thereby converting the released mixing energy into electrical energy. To reach this goal, the objectives of CO2CAP are to develop novel cutting-edge carbon-based electrodes and amino acid-based IL designed to maximize the EDL of charges at the electrode/IL interface, enhancing at the same time the CO2 absorption capacity. This will be possible by using a multidisciplinary approach based on materials engineering, modelling, advanced characterization methods and novel architecture of the electrodes. The engineered materials and cell will allow to demonstrate the feasibility of this new electrochemical approach,

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Stormy Atmospheres over Quiescent Waters: Dynamical Implications of Fine-scale Air-Sea Interaction'.

assistant: **Concept**

The atmosphere and ocean exhibit natural fluctuations at many scales. Compellingly, their responses to each other’s cues, felt through fluxes at the interface, may be taking place at much finer scales. At the air-sea interaction (ASI) submesoscale, ranging from about 200 m to 200 km, both air and water are filled with beautiful heterogeneous structure. Unraveling how such fine-scale structure drives air-sea exchange, leading to different dynamics in both fluids, is an emerging challenge for climate science. My ambition is to expose dynamical impacts and primary mechanisms of submesoscale interaction between atmospheric moist convection and tropical quiescent waters. With QUASI, I will use Earth’s stormiest and largest tropical lake as an ocean mixed-layer analog, avoiding the complexity of a deep wavy ocean. Lake Victoria offers the ideal field lab to study sensitive waters and strong atmospheric signals in the form of near-daily convective storms triggered by warm waters and mesoscale circulations. QUASI will realize a multi-sensor multi-buoy network on the lake to measure spatial, cross-interface, high-resolution observations of the near-surface atmosphere and water for over a year. The observations force ocean mixed-layer models to uncover important variability and inspire and inform advanced atmospheric large-eddy and storm-resolving simulations in uncoupled and coupled configurations. QUASI will identify key atmospheric drivers and scales of heterogeneity in air-sea fluxes, expose responses of surface water temperature and mixing, infer dynamical implications of treating water as a static homogeneous surface, and study the impact of submesoscale ASI on regional weather patterns and extremes. While inherently challenging, QUASI delivers rare cross-disciplinary evide

user: Write the 'Expected Impact' section for the project 'The Plant Immune System: a multidisciplinary approach to uncover how plants simultaneously deal with beneficial and parasitic organisms to maximize profits and protection' (PLANTIMMUSYS), addressing dissemination and exploitation.

assistant: **Impact**

In nature, plants live in complex environments in which they are attacked by a multitude of pathogens and pests. In agriculture this leads to tremendous annual crop losses, representing a value of over 450 billion worldwide. Beneficial associations between plants and other organisms are abundant in nature as well, improving plant growth or aiding plants to overcome biotic or abiotic stress. In the past years, we pioneered research on the complexity of the natural plant immune system that is engaged in interactions of plants with beneficial microbes, pathogens and insect herbivores. We discovered that the plant immune signaling network finely balances the plant¿s response to beneficial and harmful organisms to maximize both profitable and protective functions. As plants have co-evolved with an enormous variety of alien organisms, they harbour a fantastic reservoir of natural defensive mechanisms that until to date remained largely untapped. Here, I propose to mine this undiscovered natural resource in detail, using the Arabidopsis thaliana model system, and an innovative multidisciplinary approach involving a unique combination of state-of-the-art microbial and plant functional genomics, ecogenomics, molecular genetics, cellular biology, computational biology and bioinformatics. The outcomes of the proposed project will provide a detailed understanding of the intrinsic capacity of the plant immune system to simultaneously accommodate mutualists and ward off enemies in order to maximize benefits and minimize damage. Profitably, the discovery of novel plant loci and mechanisms involved in plant immunity will provide multi-faceted possibilities for development of new strategies for sustainable agriculture and resistance breeding of economically relevant crop species.

user: Describe how 'Advanced nano encapsulation of bio-based pesticides and fertilisers for a circular and sustainable viticulture' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The main objective of the VINNY is the development of sustainable, low-cost nanoformulated biopesticides (nanoBPs) and biofertilizers (nanoBFs) for contributing to more resilient vineyard systems. The application of VINNY nanoformulations will allow contributing to the ultimate switch from intensive to sustainable agriculture in viticulture, on a global scale. This will be achieved using natural-based green circular economy concepts: i) grapevine to grapevine plant full cycle approach where  microbiome-based metabolites and bioactives from different vineyards in Europe (Portugal, Spain, Austria and Denmark) will be investigated to form potent cocktails with antifungal and plant protection properties and ii) industrial by-products, namely carbon and nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P) and potassium (K) NPK-rich actives from sludges, originated from local waste water treatment plants (WWTPs) in Austria and Denmark from meat industry (MI), to be used as biofertilizers. The project is focused on stabilization and boosting the efficacy of these actives by using 2 different bioplatforms: the nanoformulation/encapsulation of BPs and the impregnation on agrotextiles with BFs. The platforms will be based on biodegradable, renewable and abundant bioresources from plants or, in the case of biopesticides, on dynamically active nanoformulations, i.e., based on stimuli responsive biopolymers with capacity of releasing the active and improving their efficacy upon external stimuli (wind) and/or internal clues (enzymes in fungi). VINNY will then validate these platforms according to their efficacy using in vitro, ex vivo and in plant testing against vine prevalent pathogens and evaluate their biocompatibility, confirm the absence of nanotoxicity, and in field tests with the best performing ca

user: Compose the 'Concept and Approach' section for a Horizon Europe proposal on 'Machine learning methods for excited-state dynamics simulations in light-induced spin-crossover complexes'.

assistant: **Concept**

Spin crossover complexes are bistable transition-metal compounds in which light, or other external simuli, is used to induce a change in the magnetic state of the system, allowing them to be employed as molecular switches in future spintronics and photonics technologies. Despite the rapid development of experimental techniques to characterise these complexes, computational material science is not yet able to provide a quantitative description of the light-induced spin crossover mechanism. These limitations are mainly due to the need for enormous computational resources to perform accurate excited-state dynamics simulations in medium-sized transition-metal complexes. The aim of the SCOML project is to provide the proof of concept for a new machine learning-based strategy that will enable efficient and accurate simulations of the light-induced spin-crossover mechanism, thus paving the way for a systematic design of new materials. Achieving this goal has the potential to revolutionise the production of new technological solutions to guide Europe towards a digital and green transition.

assistant: **Impact**

EuPOLIS aims to: (a) replace the traditional perception in which engineering systems are built to protect the environment at significant costs. We aim to deploy natural systems to simultaneously enhance Public Health (PH) and Well-Being (WB), and create resilient urban ecosystems at lower Life-Cycle Costs; (b) propose a structured approach to activate the hidden possibilities and services of existing Natural and Engineered urban systems, integrate them and define their joint social, cultural and economic effects, as a main vehicle for Ecosystem Business Services and Investment; (c) regenerate and rehabilitate urban ecosystems, while in parallel addressing key challenges such as low environmental quality, fragmentation and low biodiversity in public spaces, water-stressed resources, undervalued use of space in deprived areas and therefore we improve urban livability; (d) improve urban resilience (operational, social and economic) through interventions designed using a set of proper urban planning matrices, which catalyse stakeholder participation, with a special attention to gender, age and disability perspectives within the process; (e) create inclusive and accessible urban spaces by systematically implementing gender mainstreaming strategies and novel participatory tools into all phases and processes of project development to ensure that the needs of diverse groups are considered. We aim to stimulate active communities’ participation throughout the process; (f) to improve citizens’ quality of life providing them with pleasant socializing open areas that stimulate social exchange and inclusivity; (g) monitor and validate the impact of all interventions to PH and WB of citizens.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'How does population heterogeneity affect resistance to disinfectants in Mycobacterium?', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Horizon Europe.

assistant: **Impact**

The project aims to investigate the mode-of-action of quaternary ammonium compound-based disinfectants (QACs) against Mycobacterium in comparison to the model rod-shaped bacterium, Escherichia coli. Additionally, it seeks to explore the role of phenotypic heterogeneity in the mycobacterial populations response to disinfectant exposure. Inappropriate application of QACs may lead to the emergence of tolerance or resistance to these compounds, and possibly cross-resistance to antibiotics. Currently, there are only a few reports discussing the influence of disinfection on anti-tubercular drugs action. It is hypothesized that the specific composition of the cell wall in mycobacteria, along with the potential ability to modify this composition, and their elongation mode, contributes to high population heterogeneity, which might facilitate the adaptation to the stress imposed by QACs. To address this, the following project objectives are planned: 1) to characterize whether and how single-cell heterogeneity influences the response to QACs in rod-shaped bacteria, and 2) to elucidate the population heterogeneity-derived changes in the tolerance and resistance mechanisms of Mycobacterium against QACs. By using a fluorescently labeled analog of the commonly used benzalkonium chloride (BAC), NBD-DDA, it will be possible for the first time to conduct real-time investigations of the compound's accumulation and its effects on rod-shaped bacterial populations. The project outcome will shed light on the mechanisms underlying the emergence of tolerance and resistance to disinfectants in Mycobacterium and will help to understand the basis of potential cross-resistance between disinfectants and anti-tubercular antibiotics. Given the recent increase in disinfectant usage and the high annual
