  Detalles de la demanda :
  
  The water polymer is an ecological product which delivers water to plants through microbes using the age old “thimbleful” concept; it is a non hazardous chemical product. It combines microbial activity with chemical technology. It utilizes molecular science and microbial interaction to control water release directly to plant roots as needed. It is a stagnant and non-volatile solid substance produced through solidifying water, causing fundamental changes in the physical properties of water. Once it contacts dry soil around the plants roots or drip zone, it slowly releases moisture through the common microbe in water polymer and all soil types.
  
  Most of water polymer/ crystals/ water retaining agents in the market place are high bibulous resins. Currently there are two major types of water retaining agents, acrylamide-acrylate cross-linking copolymer and starch-acrylate graft cross-linking co-polymer. Water retaining agents hold no water themselves. It absorbs water from outside and releases it to plants. In contrast, the one that I have as of sample is consist of 98% water and 2% cellulose. It releases water at a slow rate through microbial interaction in soil and provides moisture for plants. It does not evaporate in dry environments or flow or leak in sand. It reaches the roots of plants and releases moisture at a low rate, providing a slow but steady supply of moisture.
  
  Successful research partner will help me to find the simple & cost effective way to manufacture better quality of water polymer in commercial scale. Leer más

  Detalles de la demanda :
  
  The management of water consumption is becoming increasingly necessary as the global population grows and consumers in the developed world become compelled to reduce their environmental footprint. We are keen to find innovative technical devices to reduce water consumption, and have focused on applications where consumers use and therefore potentially waste the most amount of water. We are therefore searching for IP-supported, ideally DISRUPTIVE technology for the following markets:-
  
  - Domestic housing / consumer use
  - Public toilets
  - Hotel toilets / showers / baths
  - Schools / offices / social housing water consumption
  
  We are focused on gaining access to products that reduce water consumption, or assist users in monitoring their water consumption. These should be inexpensive devices to modify the following products:-
  
  - Taps / faucets
  - Showers / Baths
  - Toilets
  
  Additionally, we are also interested in new, inexpensive and innovative ways to help recycle water in some way, for example:-
  
  - Garden water (collection, storage, usage – plant watering, ponds, pools etc)
  - Hot water tanks / cylinders / central heating systems
  - Grey water / black water recycling systems / devices
  
  We are interested in products for both retro-fitting or new plumbing installations, but devices should be easily fitted by the consumer or a competent plumber. Complicated solutions requiring new plumbing formats are of lesser interest.

Buscamos "long-lasting freshness technology" para productos de limpieza de superficies duras

hard surface, cleaning, Freshness, Perfume delivery, Detergency, Pro-perfume
- Resultado deseado
  
  Los productos de limpieza de superficies duras actuales generalmente dependen de la tecnología convencional de perfumeria para proporcionar aroma a las superficies que se limpian, y para liberarlo al medio ambiente. Incluso cuando están formulados para ser altamente persistentes, los perfumes convencionales rara vez alcanzan un efecto que dura más de un par de horas. Creemos que los consumidores valorarían que los productos de limpieza de superficies duras pudieran ofrecer innovadores beneficios de longevidad del perfume, por ejemplo, una duración de al menos medio día.
  
  Los productos de limpieza de superficies duras actuales típicamente contienen niveles bajos de surfactante, y este agente tensioactivo es necesario para mantener el perfume disuelto. Las necesidades principales que deben ser abordadas son: (i) asegurar una correcta liberación del perfume a la superficie a limpiar y (ii) controlar la liberación de estos perfumes en el "headspace" después de que la superficie se haya secado, a través de (iii) una tecnología que sea estable y compatible con una formulación diluida del producto de limpieza

Seeking: Preventing growth of and removing microorganisms and biofilms from a potable water system

biofilm, biocide, Water
- Resultado deseado
  
  We want to decrease and maintain the microbial concentration in acceptably clean drinking water. We'd like to do this by preventing the growth of, or by killing, microorganisms in the water and microbial biofilms adhering to the surfaces of our sophisticated water storage and supply system.
  
  12/08/10 - El deadline de esta demanda ha caducado
  
  Compartir demanda
  
  Detalles de la demanda :
  
  BACKGROUND
  
  Potable water enters our storage and supply system from a municipal water source. Once in our water system, the bacterial concentration must be decreased and maintained at bacterial concentrations of less than 50 colony-forming units (CFU) per milliliter. We're not dealing with source water from unknown or untrusted sources. However, this water may need to be stored for as long as a year and may be consumed by people at any point during that time.
  
  Simple filtration of the water at the delivery point as it is delivered is not a good option, because the water system is not guaranteed to be sterile, and the bacteria count may increase over time while the water is stored. As high bacterial counts can overwhelm filtration and treatment systems, filters at the dispense point are also not considered a good option..Instead, we are looking for technology to decrease the number of living organisms below 50 CFU per milliliter and prevent further increases in microbial growth. We do not consider water safe to drink unless it contains 50 CFU or less per milliliter.
  
  While our system is complex, the evaluation of the technology will focus on the final potable water holding tank immediately prior to consumption.
  
  CONSTRAINTS
  
  There are two major constraints:
  
  o Your proposed solution must be compatible with a variety of metals including Inconel(TM), and stainless steel, along with a variety of other materials used for seals and tubing; and
  o Your proposed solution must be reliable enough that water quality would not need monitoring more than once per month. Water may need to remain unmonitored for six months or more.
  
  Additional constraints:
  
  o Low weight
  o A residual biocide is preferred
  o No toxicological effect resulting from long-term human exposure
  o No gas production from the operation of your technology
  o Must be compatible with a specific mixture of ambient gases that include primarily oxygen and nitrogen
  o Operable at ambient pressures from sea level (14.7 psi) down to 8 psi

- Resultado deseado
  
  We need components to make up one or more systems that can remove surface contamination (biofilms), lime scum, lime scale buildup, ameliorate water hardness, remove mold, mildew, and similar spores, handle soap scum, and remove surface detritus from a variety of materials.

  Detalles de la demanda :
  
  We are not currently looking for a "cleaning spray" (although that may form part of the solution), but rather for components that can contribute to a complete cleaning system that can work autonomously or semi-autonomously on a selection of surfaces, some horizontal, some vertical, some in complex shapes.
  
  BACKGROUND
  The materials we need to treat are both synthetic and natural. They include stone, fiberglass gel coat, plastic and other long-chain molecule materials, steel, concrete (sealed), glass, enamel, and china. Such materials occur in many industries, such as marine construction and maintenance, masonry, medical equipment, lapidary work, industrial plants, and a host of others.
  The materials vary in surface characteristics such as porosity, density, texture, flexibility/brittleness, and depth. Some materials adhere to substrates, some are consistent throughout, and some have surface finishes that must not be damaged (for example, gel coat).
  The process of cleaning such surfaces likewise varies by industry and may be known by several names: polishing, antifouling, anti-soiling, sterilization, anti-bacterial, and anti-mold/mildew are a few.
  We're looking to assemble complete systems - a system is a device and a consumable stream - that can clean, polish, scrub (or whatever) such materials, remove dirt and biofilm, and render them clean enough for use in a home. Ideally, we'd find a system in use in an industry such as marine hull maintenance (fiber glass hulls, for example) that we could adapt to our own industry. Or perhaps a stone mason uses a system for cleaning his natural surfaces before installing them in a home, and we could adapt his methods. Or a system used by hospitals to disinfect MRI tunnels might be what we need.
  
  We're open to your proposals.
  
  CONSTRAINTS
  o Environmentally friendly, safe for humans and pets, and output treatable by municipal systems
  o Does not damage surfaces
  o Automated or semi-automated operation
  
  POSSIBLE SOLUTION AREAS
  Various industries: medicine, stone, marine, construction, etc.
  Local products not currently on the world market
  Ultrasonic/aeration technologies
  
  Field Of Use and Intended Application
  Consumer applications
  
  Desired Outcome
  We hope to find a complete system that can remove dirt, detritus, biofilm, and similar contaminants from a variety of surfaces. Leer más

  Detalles de la demanda :
  
  Clean water for drinking and washing is in short supply in most of the world. Besides hydration (a critical world-wide need), water is necessary for washing and sanitary needs.
  
  When clothes are washed in a bucket or small tub that contains a minimal amount of water, the wash and rinse water rapidly become burdened with dirt and soap. This organization would like to find a way to remove the dirt and surfactants from the used water -- cheaply -- thus effectively multiplying the clean water for use in rinsing. Ideally, your water-cleaning method could make dirty water potable.
  
  A typical first rinse laundry water contains a surfactant concentration of 0.1-0.2 g per L, a turbidity of ~300 NTU and a pH of ~9. Typical surfactants are anionic surfactants such as linear alkylbenzene sulphonates and non-ionic surfactants such as, ethoxylated alcohols.
  
  CONSTRAINTS
  
  o Your solution should present no safety or eco-toxicity issues.
  
  o The solution should not be a powered device.
  
  o Time constraints: Your solution should clean up ~10 L of water in about 2 minutes
  
  o Easy to clean and maintain. A technical solution that requires a great deal of water to clean would not be satisfactory.
  
  o The target market is exceptionally cost-sensitive in terms of initial equipment acquisition, and in operation, maintenance, and upkeep.
  
  POSSIBLE SOLUTION AREAS
  
  A number of solutions exist for waste water treatment and purification. If any can be used within the cost, power and volume constraints they would be of interest.
  
  Potential technology solution areas
  
  o Absorbants (activated carbon, silica gel), antifoams
  
  o Filtration/separation/sieves/membranes
  
  o Coagulation/flocculation
  
  o Aeration
  
  o Chemical
  
  o UV
  
  Field Of Use and Intended Application
  Washing water in rural and clean-water-poor areas of the world.
  
  Desired Outcome
  Ideally, you will provide a method or device that can reduce water turbidity, remove surfactants (predominantly LAS surfactants), render the water a neutral pH, and clean about 10L of water in about 2 minutes.
  
  Previously Attempted Solutions
  The current method uses flocculation. This clumps together fine particles using flocculants, thus improving filterability of the particles. It is a method used in water purification plants and sewage treatment.
  
  Comments
  This company is open to a wide variety of deals and is able to support early stage joint development work.

  Detalles de la demanda :
  
  We are seeking a new walk-in bath design which allows the bather to both enter and exit the bath-tub whilst it is full of water.
  
  Walk-in baths are typically used by the elderly, infirm or those with reduced mobility, to overcome the problems associated with having to climb into and out of a conventional bath-tub. Walk-in baths, as the name suggests, are accessed via a door in the side of the tub, to allow users to literally walk in and out of the bath. Unfortunately this means that the user has to enter the bath when empty, and then wait while the water fills up. Not only is there a risk of the water being too hot or too cold as it enters the bath, but the bather is exposed to the unpleasant / potentially unhealthy chilling environment as they wait for the bath to fill. In exiting the bath the situation is even worse as the bather is now wet and rapidly getting cold, as they wait for the water to drain out before being able to open the door and exit the bath.
  
  No walk-in bath is currently approved by Occupational Therapists, both for the reasons above, and that existing designs still have a small lip/step to enter the bath (so preventing some users from safely using it). We are therefore seeking a novel design to allow the user to enter and exit the bath easily, and to give the impression of entering a full bath of water.
  
  Any new design should provide for:
  • A means to enter the bath, via a walk-in door (at floor level)
  • Instant access to a full bath of water
  • Safe and easy to operate by the bather alone, i.e. not requiring assistance or supervision
  • Retail price close to current walk-in baths
  • Suitability for approval by Occupational Therapists
  • Fit within existing bath / walk-in bath foot-space
  
  Solutions not of interest:
  • Faster speed filling and draining as a replacement for entering a full bath (unless in conjunction with other design / technology)
  • Ladders, ramps, hoists or other means to gain access to the bath
  
  The following design solutions have been suggested, but to our knowledge do not exist commercially or do not fulfil all the requirements. However, we would be interested in individuals or groups who could provide further details on developed solutions, or alternative technologies:-
  o Separate reservoir / double skinned bath to hold bath water / allow instant draining
  o Built-in seat moving device to transport user into full bath
  o Powered drainage device to pump water out of bath

  Description:
  
  In Europe regulations restricting the use of phosphates and other phosphorus compounds in many consumer detergents are being adopted.
  
  The most widely used detergent phosphate is sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP), but various phosphates of sodium, potassium and other minerals are also used for specific applications. The reason why STPP is used in detergents is that it performs several very useful functions. Phosphates are able to soften water by deactivating water hardness minerals through sequestration (holding metal ions) or precipitation (removing metal ions from solution as insoluble materials). By binding the water hardening ions (Ca2+ and Mg2+) it prevents formation of filming and hard water deposits. An important functional property of phosphates is that they contribute to the overall detergency of a cleaner by providing and controlling alkalinity and preventing hard water interference with surfactants. Phosphates also exhibit a deflocculating property that helps to prevent formation of large particles of dirt which are easier to wash from the surface of substrates such as ceramics, glass and metal.
  
  Since phosphates fulfil a number of different functions; it may not necessarily be easy to replace them with a single ingredient formulated in the way STPP is currently used, however a single replacement solution for the problem would be preferred.
  
  Summary of Need /Scope of the Brief:
  
  To identify providers of alternative phosphate-free technology approaches for detergent applications that ideally have the potential for cost parity and performance parity with, for example, sodium tripolyphosphate.
  
  Providers are defined as:
  
  1. Universities with specific scale inhibition, or sequestering expertise,
  2. Startup and medium sized businesses
  
  Potential solutions from other industry sectors that can be adapted are also acceptable as are expert partners for collaborative work to design and synthesize custom chemistry that meet the criteria
  
  Detailed Technical Requirements:
  
  Provide alternative technology solutions to phosphate that may become cost parity and performance parity.
  
  The solution should provide:
  
   Identity of proposed technology solution with detailed specifications,
   Potential suppliers of materials and indicative costs if known.
   Indications of any formulation issues
   Availability of sufficient quantities of samples for experimental work.
   Should be able to be supplied at commercial quantities by January 2017.
  
  Magnetic, RF or electrochemical scale prevention devices are not in scope.
  
  Additional Information:
  
  1. Not be harmful for human use.
  2. Manufacturing process proposed should not be cost prohibitive
  3. Overall product cost appropriate for consumer use products
  4. Technology ideally to be REACH compliant
  5. Ideally offer scope for patent protection with the desired application and format if custom chemistry solution
  6. Have IP protection if a current product.
  7. Suitable for multiple formulation formats ( solids, powders, liquids, gels)

Technology to allow production of aluminium food & beverage cans with little or no water

aluminium drawing & ironing, waterless systems, closed loop, non-toxic
- Resultado deseado
  
  We are searching for innovative technologies, systems, products and / or materials to allow aluminium food and beverage cans to be manufactured with less or no water requirement. A closed loop system with no toxic waste products would also be considered a significant improvement.
  
  30/11/10 - El deadline de esta demanda ha caducado
  
  Compartir demanda
  
  Detalles de la demanda :
  
  Background:
  The production of aluminium cans is capital intensive and involves numerous process steps, many of which require water and / or water-based lubricants, as a cooling agent, and in particular to wash away fines, lubricant residues, etc prior to protecting, coating, filling and sealing. Typically, 15 - 65 gallons of water are required per 1000 cans (differs between individual plants). Our client is looking to drastically reduce this usage by adopting new forming techniques, novel ‘washless’ or waterless lubrication and / or cooling materials or mechanisms, and closed loop systems whereby the water that is used can be cleaned for re-use in the plant.
  
  Problems:
  - The drawing and wall ironing process generates a great deal of heat / friction (aluminium is reduced from gauge of ~0.25mm to ~100microns), hence the need for cutting oil / lubricants and coolants.
  - The cans must be scrupulously clean prior to coating on both sides (to prevent corrosion and allow printing), hence a 4-stage washing process. This includes the use of etching chemicals such as HF.
  - If employing a closed loop system the resulting waste sludge is classified as hazardous due to the aluminium particulates / fines (up to 30 microns) and various chemicals involved in the production process. This is expensive to remove.
  - The manufacturing process uses a number of solvents and other hazardous chemicals which not only contaminate the waste stream but give off toxic emissions meaning the sites on which plants can be placed are restricted.
  
  Solutions:
  Potentially any technology that allows the production of cans without water, or with as little water as possible, will be considered, including:-
  - Alternative forming techniques, e.g. without lubrication / coolant
  - Improved die technology, e.g. coatings for dies / tooling to operate at lower temperatures
  - Alternative cooling systems / mechanisms, e.g. cooling surface of the dies
  - Novel lubrication systems, such as a combined lubricant and coating, which doesn’t need to be washed off, or is water soluble, or can be removed without water (solutions could include pre-coated aluminium and polymer laminates, etc)
  - Waterless or ‘washless’ cleaning systems
  - New coatings / lacquers with ‘cleaner’ chemical content and avoiding use of VOCs
  - Alternative ‘greener’ mechanisms for etching fines from surface of the can (HF is currently used)
  - Water treatment systems that reduce or remove the usage of chemical agents, as well as the aluminium residues, to render the waste non-hazardous and thus potentially recyclable.
  
  Our client does NOT currently use silicon in their production process due to difficulties with contamination – therefore, we prefer not to use a silicone based solution unless it can be shown to not be detrimental to other processes, or could be removed completely from the can / equipment.
  
  The client is an established manufacturer, well used to developing best practice for their production plants. There is an ongoing economic and environmental requirement to reduce the water usage of their plants, and therefore minimise the impact to the local area. Considerable work has already been done to reduce consumption, but the client is looking for step-change technology to create a plant of the future. They are keen to simplify the production process, remove hazardous chemicals and generally create a ‘clean’ process that minimises use of local resources. The company has in-house development capabilities and will consider most forms of commercial collaboration, including licensing, joint development and acquisition. Any technology should have the potential to be scaled for high volume processes Leer más

  Seeking a replacement for boric acid which combines lubricant/sliding properties and non-oxidising properties for formulations of tablets for disinfecting the water of swimming pools based on trichloroisocyanuric acid or symclosene (CAS # 87-90-1); aluminium sulphate (CAS # 10043-01-3); copper sulphate (CAS # 7758-98-7).
  
  A lubricant/sliding/anti-adherent substance that should permit the compacting of tablets with the active ingredients trichloroisocyanuric acid or symclosene(CAS # 87-90-1), aluminium sulphate (CAS # 10043-01-3) and copper sulphate (CAS N# 7758-98-7) and/or confer the mixture with “non-oxidising” properties (according to Regulations CE A.17 and ONU O.1).
  
  To manufacture trichloroisocyanuric acid or symclosene tablets using compression machines, the substances are added to the mixtures in a feed hopper and compacted in the matrix which will give the shape and size of the tablet by means of pressure (punch).
  
  The type of machine used to manufacture the tablets is the following:
  
  20 g tablets: rotary
  200 – 250 g tablets: eccentric / rotary
  500 – 600 g blocks: hydraulic
  
  The substance should permit the tablet to exit (lubricant, sliding and anti-adhesive effect) from the matrix of the compression machine.
  
  In addition, the mixture must provide the mixture based on trichloroisocyanuric acid or symclosene (which is a “oxidising” substance) the “non-oxidising” property.
  
  Boric Acid is currently used, which is a substance which will be classified as an SVHC (substance of very high concern) according to the REACH Regulation – future inclusion in Annex XIV – This means that it will be necessary to request ECHA for an authorisation for “use” in order to continue using it. It is highly likely that some uses will be dismissed.

  The solutions should also provide an efficient odour barrier to prevent bad odours go back from the sewage system to the bathroom. The overall height of this device should not exceed 30mm in total.
  Even that the preferred request is "Supplier", also "joint development" or "product acquisition" could be welcome too.
  
  The traditional drain fittings are based in a water seal which according to the European Standards must be minimum 50mm to give an efficient and long lasting protection against bad odours backflow.
  
  Therefore, even the state-of-the-art products available nowadays have an overall height of 60-80 mm. This height is an inconvenient when trying to install a flush fitting shower tray because it has to be dug in the bathroom floor what sometimes is very difficult or imposible.
  
  Other systems avalibale nowadays that could give an equivalent performance and that are not based on the water seal have proved to be not reliable enough, so far.

  We need a hardware with the same characteristics as linksys (see added information) or to fit the configuration that we have but in an integrated manner in order to give a better image of the product that we are offering.
  
  The objective of the challenge is to assemble all the compounds in one, taking into account consume of electricity. Furthermore, the Network Storage link of Linksys has an internal memory of 8 Mb, it would be convenient to amplify to 1 Gb and eliminate the flash drive memory of Kingston.
  
  To give an integrated solution, unifying the compounds and designing a case, minimum of 2 USB external connexions in order to connect a modem or/ and a USB battery. 3 USB Bluetooth connexions should be possible to attach.
  
  If the solution is not based in linksys, we have to assure that the new device works without problem under Linux Debian 4.0.
  
  Background: We currently have 2 models full configured for us based in the microprocessors gumstick and in the current linksys and running with linux ( gumstix) and l linux debian etch. All the compounds work correctly, but since they are not assembled in a physical way they provoke confusion and they don’t give the feeling of a 100% ended product.
  
  Success criteria: we want to achieve an integrated hardware, whether keeping linksys as base or similar to the conventional and when the cost per unit is less than 100 Euros with accessories (electricity adaptor, hub USB, Bluetooth sticks...). For this, is necessary that the device has the relevant certificates in the case that uses integrated chipsets Bluetooth that meet with European community.
