SINTEF projects

SINTEF and NTNU have published a new edition of the OREDA handbook in 2015 for topside and subsea equipment.

In the project "Establishment of a process for production of membrane elements", an industrial manufacturing process for membrane tubes for CO₂ capture using hydrogen separation, is developed. Reinertsen AS, SINTEF Materials and Chemistry and SINTEF...

Reliability and Ruggedness of High Power, High Voltage Power Electronics

For CO₂ capture and storage to play a relevant role in the reduction of European emissions, activities need to be scaled up significantly from what we are doing today. This will require good estimates on how much CO₂ can be practically and safely...

Hydrogen is considered a favourable alternative for transport and for storing peak renewable energy for the grid. This project investigates the feasibility of a bio-hybrid photoelectrochemical (PEC) cell with modified hydrogenase enzymes as catalysts...

The goal of the project has been to develop the next generation spherical 3D camera for video and sound. Playback in VR goggles will provide the user with an immersive realistic presence.

UTOFIA offers a compact and cost-effective underwater imaging system for turbid environments. Using range-gated imaging, the system extends the imaging range over conventional video systems and provides video-rate 3D images.

Clean and efficient wood stoves through improved batch combustion models and CFD modelling approaches

SINTEF has been heavily involved in both the pre-design and design phases of the Dudgeon wind farm in waters to the east of the UK.

The aim of this collaborative project is to obtain a better understanding of geological CO₂ storage and to improve monitoring capabilities.

Post-2020 framework for a liberalised electricity market with a large share of Renewable Energy Sources

SINTEF has recently developed a method to produce 3-dimensional nanostructures of silicon and aluminum, nano-wires and nano-tunnels, using the self-organizing tendency of these two materials. These structures can potentially increase the efficiency...

NanoWASTE is a research project funded by the Norwegian Research Council that studies the fate, removal, release and subsequent impacts of manufactured nanomaterials (MNMs) in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs).

The Research Centre on Zero Emission Buildings

In its quest to meet the growing demand for energy, the offshore industry is moving into ever deeper waters, and resources are being exploited in more and more demanding ocean environments. FPSOs, or Floating Production, Storage and Offloading...

In collaboration with Statoil and TNO - Netherlands, SINTEF has developed and validated a novel methodology for determining the operational limits of free-fall lifeboats.
