user: Compose a compelling abstract for 'Novel niches for anaerobic methane oxidation and their biogeochemical sigificance' demonstrating excellence, impact and implementation quality for a Horizon 2020 call.

assistant: **Abstract**

Motivated by a series of recent discoveries, NOVAMOX provides the first comprehensive biogeochemical and microbial ecological analysis of methane consumption in anoxic freshwater systems and oceanic oxygen minimum zones, environments where such processes to date were largely ignored. I propose that anaerobic microbial methane oxidation pathways are important sinks in for methane in these environments, thereby affecting methane emissions and the cycling of nitrogen, iron, and sulfur, as the cycling of these elements is coupled either directly or indirectly to methane oxidation. With the development of new incubation and sensing techniques necessary to detect the processes in their environment, we will identify and quantify active pathways of anaerobic methane oxidation, identify the organisms that catalyse these transformations, analyse their environmental distribution, characterize kinetic controls of their growth and metabolic activity, and analyse the isotopic signatures they may leave behind. The project will generate robust estimates of the biogeochemical significance of anaerobic methane oxidation in these overlooked niches, and provide a quantitative mechanistic framework for analysis of the role of these processes in Earth’s biogeochemical evolution as well as for their implementation in forecasts of global change. The project will also provide fundamental new insights to the ecology of the highly specialized microorganisms involved in methane oxidation, for use in potential biotechnological applications.

user: Draft an executive summary for the EU project 'Restructuring demining research from regional, initiatives within Europe' (DELVE) targeting Sixth Framework.

assistant: **Abstract**

Humanitarian de-mining R&D has made good progress. There is now a better overview of R&D activities and communication between researchers has improved thanks to information sharing initiatives. Current research shows a stronger tie with end user needs and more emphasis on area reduction, trace explosive detection and remote sensing as well as environmental and soil conditions and a better understanding of the limitations of sensors and techniques Nonetheless, European R&D is still too fragmented, reducing its competitive potential. There is still no co-ordination between national research initiatives and insufficient collaboration of military oriented research and international projects as well as a lack of coordination between military and humanitarian de-mining R&D. DELVE will address these issues by catalysing the restructuring and defragmenting of European de-mining research, thereby strengthening the European Research Area.Its goals are to:(a) improve co-ordination between research activities by mapping ongoing research initiatives and results;(b) enhance Internet-based communication to provide structured and efficient information;(c) encourage synergy and complementarities between disciplines and actors and disseminate knowledge, experience and results via forums, and(d) promoting long term sustainability and structure. DELVE will build on previous initiatives but will go further.It will:(a) avoid research duplication by encouraging end users to collaborate (using a pro-active, but non-coercive role) and inform (R&D) decision makers about latest developments and requirements;(b) maintaining and restructuring a central repository of de-mining related information (DELVE Website);(c) encouraging the creation of Regional Networks;(d) enhancing researcher mobility;(e)

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Bilayer Graphene Exciton Polariton' (BiGExPo).

assistant: **Concept**

The topic of the project is the investigation of the physics and the applications of exciton polaritons in biased graphene bilayers.Recent theoretical calculations have shown that excitons in gapped bilayers of graphene are characterized by an extremely intense coupling to light. Coupling graphene bilayers to the photonic mode of a microcavity we thus expect to be able to reach the strong coupling regime, in which the low energy excitations of the system will be given by a new kind of polariton quasiparticle, half graphene interband electronic transition, half microcavity photon.The aim of the present project is to study the physics of such excitations, both for their fundamental physical interest and for the possibility to exploit them to realize pioneering optoelectronical devices.

user: Draft an impact statement for 'COMPARATIVE ASSESSMENT OF SECURITY-CENTERED TRAINING CURRICULA FOR FIRST RESPONDERS ON DISASTER MANAGEMENT IN THE EU', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Security-centered training course curricula on disaster management for first responders (FR)* in EU member states will be comparatively assessed with a specially developed matrix-based software: (1) for all EU member states (2) as  derived from international best practices in the US, Russia, and Israel as countries with extensive experience in this field. The comparative assessment will cover: (a) Didactic areas (electronic and hardcopy teaching materials used, computer modelling, field exercises); (b) Subject areas (terror threats to FR; risk assessment and -management; catastrophic terrorism; weapons of mass destruction, -mass killing, -mass disturbance; synchronization of response staff; (c) comparative evaluation of training course curricula by virtual reality safety training with biofeedback. Representatives of FR organisations and SME’s in security technology will be involved throughout the assessment. This new integrative approach reflects the necessity of the integretive operation of end-users and representatives of the research and development community to enhance European joint security capabilities.The results of the assessment will be used to: (1) Establish an EU- security curricula database; (2) Identify potentially existing gaps in the EU training curricula; (3) Recommend an Action Plan for eliminating training deficiencies; (4) Develop a standardized security-centered training curriculum for first responders on disaster management; (5) Enhance the implementation of technology-based security programs into FR organisations

user: Draft an impact statement for 'The European wide testing and further development of a radical new environmental site investigation method, based on georadar', explaining its relevance to EU policy priorities under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

Europe's Soil has over the past hundred years been contaminated by various industrial activities. This contaminated soil has, through polluted drinking water and vapours become a potential health threat to the inhabitants. Today the monitoring of these potential risk is done by taking samples through borings. This investigation method, based on taking a limited (for economical reasons) amount of samples, does often not deliver an adequate picture of the contamination. MAP Environmental Research has developed a totally new technology for ground investigation by means of Ground Penetrating Radar. This method is very systematic, fast and nondestructivr. In Comparision with the traditional method of sampling through borings it delivers more information in less time for less costs. But this method has only been tested in specific circumstances; for European wide deployment it is necessary to develope & test the technology further on the various soils of Europe. For this cause MAP intents to set up a consortium of SMB's and Scientific Institutes with a good knowledge of geofysics and environment to execute this project.

user: Compose the 'State of the Art and Innovation' section for a Horizon 2020 proposal on 'Proof of Concept study for the development of methylation based NIPT for trisomy 21 using droplet digital PCR'.

assistant: **Innovation**

Scientific and medical evidence indicate that non-invasive prenatal testing (NIPT) offers to pregnant women a safe optionduring their pregnancy as it provides no risk of miscarriage. The NIPT is based on a genetic examination of plasma collectedfrom a pregnant woman. The discovery of cell-free fetal DNA (cff DNA) in maternal plasma during pregnancy provides apromising source of fetal genetic material for the development of reliable methods for NIPT. In the last years, NIPT has beenwidely adopted in the clinical setting as its accuracy has been dramatically improved mainly due to the introduction of newgeneration sequencing (NGS) employing whole genome or targeted approaches. However, NGS based assays consist ofhigh complexity steps and high cost. This raises concerns about inequity in NIPT access, especially for women from lowsocioeconomic groups and developed countries who cannot afford NIPT test.The proposed study stems out from a frontier research performed during two previously funded ERC Grants. Our goal is totake the first steps towards adapting and translating our previous findings into a safe, fast, accurate and affordablemethylation based non-invasive prenatal test for the detection of Down syndrome using a high precision technology such asdroplet digital PCR (ddPCR).

user: Describe how 'Development of a new process for the energy efficient protein extraction from corn starch production effluents' will create measurable scientific, societal and economic impact aligned with Fifth Framework.

assistant: **Impact**

In Europe, more than 60% of the starch production is based on com as raw material. Corn has a comparatively high protein content of approx.12%.The processing technologies in the corn starch production industry has undergone an intensive development in the last decades. Protein is now extracted from production waste streams in several factories in Europe. The currently used method is acidic heat coagulation at pH 4,5 and 110°C, which has a very high-energy consumption per kg of produced protein. The aim of this project is the development of a competitive process for the extraction of protein suitable lord human consumption from corn based on an innovative combination of micro-milling and membrane separation technology. The research approach in this project is to improve and extent the integrated processing chains in the cornstarch industries, with a special focus on reduction of energy and fresh water in protein extraction.

user: Write the concept and methodology overview for 'TECHNOLOGY VALIDATION OF THE MECHANICAL RELIABILITY TOOLKIT' under Fourth Framework.

assistant: **Concept**

Ignoring local distortions in economic markets there is no doubt that one of the most important factors for world-wide competitiveness is the overall value of products to end customers. Particularly for mechanical industries, there is great economic potential in trying to ensure that products meet all customer expectations, since this is one of the keys to success. In this context, the need for mechanical reliability is particularly widespread since most industrial products contain mechanical parts or components.The assessment of mechanical reliability has a broad base of potential applications since most industrial products contain mechanical parts or components. Any failure, even minor, may cause harm and have a major impact. Current and forthcoming European safety legislation places certain obligations on machine manufactures to apply dependability analysis techniques and consequently further enhance the competitiveness of their products. The methods, tools and data provided by the mechanical reliability supporting tool MERIT (the Toolkit was developed in the Brite Euram programme, project BE4424) which help to identify the requirements and assess the design solutions against those requirements, need to be validated on a number of realistic case studies.The main objectives of the MER-TV project were as follows:- to promote the results of the MERIT project by overcoming barriers and maximising the exploitation through a commercially viable software product- to scale up the mechanical reliability approach and know how within Europe- to validate the approach and structure of the MERIT toolkit adapted to the needs and expectations of large companies and SMEs.The MER-TV project was expected to generate the following benefits:- increased effectiveness of mechanical reliabi

user: Explain the overall concept, methodology and approach for the project 'Novel Homogeneous Double Metal Cyanide Catalyst for the Polymerization of Carbon dioxide, Propylene Oxide and Lactide' (HOMCAT).

assistant: **Concept**

Objectives of the proposal HOMCAT are (i) preparation and characterization of homogeneous catalyst systems, (ii) various polymerization studies using the catalyst system, (iii) kinetic and mechanistic studies of the polymerization reaction,(iv) analysis of polymer properties, (v) polymer scale up: Recently Carbon dioxide/epoxide copolymer has drawn much attention in both academic and industrial sectors. Among the several reported catalyst systems for the copolymerization, a highly active homogeneous Salen-cobalt complex tethered with quaternary ammonium salt (Salen-Co)was very attractive in terms of catalytic activity, easy to implement in industry and able to polymerize cheap monomer propylene oxide (PO), whereas most of the reported catalyst systems can only polymerize expensive cyclohexene oxide monomer (CHO). Using the catalyst system, a pilot plant for the continuous commercial process was constructed for the preparation of poly(propylene carbonate) (PPC). One of the potential applications of the prepared low molecular weight copolymer is to use it as a soft segment in polyurethane (PU). But due to the strictly alternating nature of the PPC formed by Salen-Co, the PU prepared using the PPC-diol is highly brittle. In this aspect, heterogeneous double metal cyanide (het-DMC) catalyst found to be very useful, which can produce some flexible ether linkage in PPC and thus the prepared PU was attractive in the polymer market. DMC catalyst has several drawbacks like, inconsistency in activity, produce broad molecular weight distribution and due to the heterogeneous nature, it is difficult to characterize and the polymerization mechanism have remained elusive. In this proposal (HOMCAT), using a novel strategy, we have designed several homogeneous DMC catalysts (hom-DMC) th

user: Explain how 'LIFECYCLE EXTENSION THROUGH PRODUCT REDESIGN AND REPAIR, RENOVATION, REUSE, RECYCLE STRATEGIES FOR USAGE&REUSAGE-ORIENTED BUSINESS MODELS' goes beyond current state-of-the-art under Seventh Framework.

assistant: **Innovation**

Integrated product-service solutions or Product-Service Systems promote a shift from value in exchange to value in use to satisfy customer needs. In this new landscape, manufacturers do not sell a physical product, but its usage (renting, pay-x-use) or its outcome (pay-x-performance). Companies and supply network should focus on reducing the Life Cycle Cost of the Product-Service Systems and extending their lifecycle in order to maximize profits, but also to increase customer utility and the lifecycle value of their offerings. Such models entail environmental benefits through increased duration, renovation and re-use of product modules. Despite the expected benefits at a company and societal level, the transition towards such models is slow and mainly concerning large multinationals manufacturers. Smaller firms often lack managerial vision, competence and resources to revolution their Strategy, Organization (internal and inter-firm), Product Design, Maintenance/repair/renovation services and Economic Performance Measurement Systems (towards customer lifetime value).The T-REX project supports such transition in the capital goods industries by developing and experimenting conceptual tools, with three practical demonstrators in the transportation (lift truck), machine tools and robotics assembly domains. T-REX will develop:• A business model suited for the new landscape that changes the way products are offered and customer relationships managed;• Product design techniques to extend the lifecycle, to foster upgrading and renovation, and to support serviceability• Service design methods to develop new services consistent with the business models and re-engineering existing services• Tools for asset Health management, customizable to the industry requirement, and a new lifec
