Organic Rankine Cycle turbine

Organic Rankine Cycle turbine

Low-temperature heat can be captured and converted into electricity through the Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) system. Againity takes advantage of low-temperature heat down to 90 degrees and can perform with systems in the range of 50-2500 kW energy production. The modularity of the Againity solution means they can be combined and scaled. Automation steers the system but can also be remotely controlled. The intended market is for heat sources from water boilers, treatment plants, or industrial processes.

Automatically created transport solutions for events

Automatically created transport solutions for events

Existing transport infrastructure often reaches its capacity limits at events, for example, which is why alternative solutions are required at short notice. Triply offers a possibility to estimate the arrival routes of the visitors in advance and to provide alternative mobility solutions for the transport. Finding stops and routing are optimized by an underlying triply algorithm, which saves money and valuable time. Triply offers a possibility to clearly display the coverage of public transport systems and to visualize the effects of changes on the accessibility. The interactive map can be used as a basis for planning or for external communication.

Coolar refrigerator using solar heated warm water

Coolar refrigerator using solar heated warm water

Coolar has produced an electricity-independent medical refrigerator. The Coolar system uses warm water that is heated through solar energy and stored in a water tank. It does not use any moving parts, hazardous cooling fluids or lubricants. Thus, the Coolar system is a cheap, durable and sustainable solution for storage of vaccines, medicines and food in regions with unreliable or expensive electricity. The Coolar system runs independently from electricity by using solar heat, which makes it almost carbon neutral. Such a refrigerator can enable doctors and health professionals to preserve lifesaving medicine and vaccines in a reliable and eco-friendly way.

Hyperloop development

Hyperloop development

Hyperloop is a new means of ground transportation that can carry passengers and cargo at speeds up to 1000 km/h inside low-pressure tubes. Zeleros' hyperloop system minimizes infrastructure complexity to achieve a scalable solution that will enable long-distance travel. By integrating Zeleros’ main levitation and propulsion technologies in the vehicle, the electrification needs of infrastructure are reduced, resulting in lower costs and easier maintenance. The fully-autonomous vehicle enables the use of a tubular infrastructure which has reduced construction and maintenance costs in comparison with other high-speed ground transport systems.

Solar powered water distribution

Solar powered water distribution

Spowdi® is a solar powered water distribution system that can replace traditional diesel using the energy of one solar panel. The portable irrigation and drinking water supply system also reduces water consumption in irrigation by 80% and has a low energy consumption. Using a drip irrigation system also results in reduced extracted water volume/hour, allowing a more stable extraction from groundwater sources. With few parts in one system, the line of products are easy to use and to apply in different situations.

Power quality improvement in electrical networks

Power quality improvement in electrical networks

Comsys has developed the ADF (Active Dynamic filter) to reduce problems caused by a veriety of electrical disturbances that weakens power quality. The ADF is a low-harmonic solution that uses harmonic compensation and mitigation resonance for power quality improvement in an electrical network. The solution is modular and adaptable, meaning that it can be applicable to different types of industries. The solution can also replace existing transformers in a network. The solution can help generating energy savings, higher productivity and reduce the number of failure in a network.

Algae based solar efficiency enhancing material

Algae based solar efficiency enhancing material

Through the extraction of nanoporous material from algae, a material with unique light altering, absorbing, and releasing properties can be created. It is useful in a wide variety of industries, such as cosmetics and biomaterials. Of potential interest from a perspective of avoided emissions, is that the material has been shown to be able to increase the efficiency of solar panels and cells (PV) both in lab and in field. The coating can be used on solar cells to improve efficiency by 4-5 % depending on the installation scale.

One hundred percent biodegradable sanitary pads

One hundred percent biodegradable sanitary pads

Saathi’s 100% biodegradable sanitary pad is made from an agricultural by-product, banana fiber. The fiber is one of the most absorbent and abundant natural fibers in India. Unlike wood pulp or cotton, the raw materials for Saathi’s sanitary pads don’t require additional land since their feedstock is from agricultural waste. They do not contain any bleaching chemicals, thereby minimizing skin irritation and the release of toxins into the environment upon disposal.

Mobile car wash

Mobile car wash

Through the Woshapp app, Woshapp takes the car wash to the car and reduces the amount of water needed for each wash. The company goal is to revolutionize the way we clean cars using sustainable and environmentally friendly methods. On average it takes 1.5 hours to wash a car and in addition about 200 liters of water are consumed per wash. Woshapp service agents cycle to the car and carefully hand wash it in an environmentally friendly way, using only about 400 milliliters of water per wash, thereby saving 99% of the water consumed by a regular car wash. The method provides better quality than a mechanical car wash, avoiding the scratches that can occur.
