In recent years, mini wind energy has been developing in a spectacular way. However, level of efficiency of small wind turbines is low. To address this problem, the UPV/EHU’s research group APERT (Applied Electronics Research Team) has developed an adaptative algorithm. The improvements that are applied to the control of these turbines will in fact contribute towards making them more efficient.

Cryogenic treatment is a thermal process in which the material is subjected to cryogenic temperatures below -153 ºC. CIC marGUNE, the Co-operative Research Centre into High-performance Manufacturing, is coordinating the DURASTEEL line of research that is endeavouring to produce more efficient steels by applying the right thermal treatment routes in order to maximize their performance.

For decades, the meat industry has made good use of laboratory analysis. Now the focus is shifting to rapid analytical methods on the production floor and meat producers are perhaps spoilt for choice in terms of rapid analytical options. But which is the right solution for that all important parameter - fat?
