Genetically Modified Plant Resistant
To Media Containing Heavy Metals
Spilled oil recovery from water surface
Non-chemical (physical) water treatment
devices for hard water treatment
A Spanish research centre has developed a genetically modified plant tosolve heavy metal contamination f soils and
waters. This plant shows an increase of itscapacity of heavy metal binding up to 300%, this plant is tolerant to toxic
concentrations of heavy metals and able toaccumulate hem in the aerial parts.The centre is looking for environmental
companies for license agreements and research collaboration.
A German inventor has found an astonishing new method for removing oil fromwater surfaces of lakes, rivers and the sea.
The innovative idea is to use steel wool for this purpose which ishighly adsorptive tooil while it has a minor adsorption
towards water. On offer isa licence for manufacture and marketing of technical devices using this new technology.
A Slovak company has designed a non-chemical device for treating hard water anywherwhere boiler scale and
sediments are created as a result of temperature orpressure changes of water e.g. in boiler rooms, heat exchangers,
compressor plants,etc.The company is looking for a commercial greement with technical ssistance.

Control system for fish farms (SControlADA)
Genetic resource management and
improvement strategies for aquaculture
Fisheries,
Resources of the Sea
The SControlADA control system has designed by a Spanish company for automating a fish farm. It is intended as an open
system that can be used in small, medium or large fish farms. The size of the farms wili be determined by the number of
variables tocontrol. The system ishighly customisable according to user needs.
AUK company has developed a genetic resource management system tor aguaculture. Genetic strategies offer huge
potential for production improvements, inaddition toavoiding significant production limitations that often occur through
common hatchery practices. Genetic management to sustain production includes troubleshooting hatchery practices to avoid
unintentional breeding and los of diversity. The company is looking for partners in the aquaculture sector for technical cooperation.

Environmentall y Friendly Water Treatment
Unit in Recycling of Marine Rearing Water
for Land Based Aquaculture
A fish farmer in Iceland has, w. European partners, built a fully operational small-scale pilot facility that combines reuseol
natural resources, recycling of organic by-products and the use of 100% renewable energy resources.Annual production
capacity is 100-130 tons of Sea Bass- finance is sought to build a fulscale plant (w.annual capacity 750 tons]and European
partners sought for establishment of a consulting company in fieldof on growing, recycling units for fresh-and marine species.
Genetic identification f fish and seafood breeds
IE
this technique has been developed at the Department of Food Science and Technology (Veterinary School of the Universidad
Complutense de Madrid).Genetic markers are utilised inthe identification of fish and seafood species infreshand processed
products, when their morphologic characteristics are not recognisable. The resultsare simple, objective, and visually
interpreted. Partners fromagrofood/biotechnology industry interested in manufacturing kits forapplying this technique aresought.

Know-how licence for the fabrication
of regional sausages
Food - Agro Industry
A SpanishAgrofooaTechnologica l Institute has developed a high-pressure procesfor extraction of organic products from
vegetable or animal matrices,wherein the proces iscarried out in the presence of one liquid solvent and one supercritical
fluid (SCF). The SCF proportion is les than 60%Advantages of this proces include the reduction of the extraction time,
reduces the solvent/solute ratio and the consumption f solvent and costs. The Institute is looking for industrial partners.
A French company, active in the fiekfof regional delicacies is looking tor a partner ready to manufacture its specialities
(different kind of sausages) as a franchisee. The French company has acquired a great know-how in the fabrication of this
particular type of product, and would like to transfer this know-how toa partner willing to include new items in its product range.
The company wil provide training and technical know-how, as wel as merchandising advice.

Method for the evaluation of bio disposal
of mineral elements in food
Scottish client has developed a technology to significantly improve the growth rate of seeds in previously hostile environments
The provision of a polymer ""pod"" means seedlings are provided with a self-contained food and water store, significantly,
enhancing their chances of survival. Itcan also be used as a micro-reservoi r toabsorb and desalinate seawater, or create
water reservoirs ata low cost.They are seeking partners for further development & commercialisation .
A Spanish SME has developed an Electronic Identification Systemof Animals that allows individual identification, automatic
management of the processeand traceability in the cattle and meat sector. The advantages, in comparison with traditional
methods of identification,are the security of the system, the computerisation and automatic control of processes, the
management of the traceability of products,breeding and milking control, etc. Partners are sought for technical cooperation.
A Spanish research group has studied the bio disposal of some minerals in human nutrition.Bio disposal is the proportion of
total mineral in the food that isassimilated by the body for its normal physiological functions.This group has worked with
different services of hospitals of Madrid tostudy the effect of several diseases (Alzheimer Parkinson, Obesity, and Diabetes)
on bio disposal of mineral elements. This group is looking for a pharmaceutical group for transferring their knowle '

Advanced technology for the treatment and
reduction of slaughterhouse waste and sludge
A Belgian SME developed a recycling system for the treatment ol slaughterhouse waste and sludge.The system comprisea
pre-manufactured unit built in containers, conforming toal EC. requirements. Capacity and design is fit for the end-of-pipe
treatment of wastes and sludge of slaughterhouses. The technology offersa feasible alternative tocurrent expensive disposal
and/or treatment solutions. Collaboration issought through commercial greements with technical cooperation.

Soil and water decontamination by
using native microorganism
A research group fromComplutense University of Madrid has developed a technique for decontamination f soil and
ES
water polluted by industrial and agricultural sewage (herbicides, pesticides, organochlorine compounds).The main advantage
is the use of native microorganism inmobilised in different supports.This research group is looking for companies interested
in licensing the technology or research groups for developing new projects.

A Web-based food safety management
system for the animal and grain chains
A French SME wants toadapt andlurther develop a Web-basedTood safety management system for European players of the
global food chain. It isalready adapted to pork, beef, chicken,vegetable, fruit, fish,grain,etc.and sold towel known players
in France. They want todevelop a harmonised system that enables traceability hrough the whole chain,since sucha system
does not exist yet in Europe.

Surface treatment of plastics with
glas to obtain better moistureand
gas-tightness and greater resistance to scratches
Industrial Manufacture
A Swedish company has developed a new method of SiOx coating of plastics to make them more moisture and gas-tight and
mechanically more resistant. Until now, this has been possible with only small components, in a vacuumchamber. Now it is car
ried out atatmospheric pressure, rapidly, on-line, on large sheets or components with complicated shapes. This technique has
been theoretically and practical!/proven,but manyapplications must be developed.Technical nd economical resourcesare required.
