  Novel way for the production of carrier materials for mosquito-larvae killing pesticides.
  
  A special kind of the formulation given in the present invention (which is possible to be manufactured upon request) is a multilayer carrier/larvicide composite granulate where the grains have an inner solid nucleus and may be built up from one or more outer layers which have larger density than the density of water. The thickness, type and amount of the outer layers control the dissolution/peeling off time. After dissolution/peeling of some of the outer layers, the density of the inner nucleus becomes dominant and the granulates start floating. The release of the larvicides start and the extermination of the mosquito larva begins.

  Aspectos nuevos e innovadores
  
  Our partner, a Hungarian Institute has developed a novel way for the production of carrier materials for mosquito-larvae killing pesticides. They are interested in a license agreement for the production of pesticide carrier substrate or selling of production equipments or the carrier material itself.
  
  Innovation of the products:
  
  The subject of the present invention are carrier materials for mosquito-larvae killing pesticides (carrier composites). Numerous insecticide preparations have already been developed for exterminating the adult mosquitoes. However the resistency and extermination of other useful insects are problematic and there are non-avoidable side effects.
  
  Since the mosquito-larvae mainly live at water surface their extermination can be limited to the living area of mosquito larva. Having realized this fact a lot of larvicide have been developed that used mineral and vegetable oil derivatives to float on the water surface. A common disadvantage of these materials is the environmental damage.
  
  Taking into consideration the environmental damage, some selective biological larvicides have also been developed. Since the mosquito larva live on water surface, some floating carriers have also been developed to carry these biological larvidices. The main disadvantage of these carriers is their inability to decompose in the environment due to their artificial polymer content.
  
  The mechanical strength of the low-density carriers is generally low due to the presence of large amount of air pores. Therefore, their spray from aircrafts is not useful due to their low level of stability towards mechanical impacts.
  
  Presently no suitable carrier is available for biological or chemical larvicides which would ensure all of the required abilities such as floating/controlled time floating on water surface, controlled release of larvacide, environmental friendly with selective components, controlled sinking and decomposition time, good storage stability and mechanical strength for homogeneous spraying from aircrafts. Therefore our partner has developed some new carrier materials for mosquito-larvae killing pesticides (carrier composites) and mosquito-larvae killing products (larvicide composites) which fulfil all of the above mentioned requirements and have also developed some appropriate procedure for their manufacture.
  
  A special kind of the formulation given in the present invention (which is possible to be manufactured upon request) is a multilayer carrier/larvicide composite granulate where the grains have an inner solid nucleus and may be built up from one or more outer layers which have larger density than the density of water. The thickness, type and amount of the outer layers control the dissolution/peeling off time. After dissolution/peeling of some of the outer layers, the density of the inner nucleus becomes dominant and the granulates start floating. The release of the larvicides start and the extermination of the mosquito larva begins.
  
  It gives a chance to perform the spreading of larva killing granules before vegetation. The granules are sunk in the water after spreading (before vegetation grows). Later (after large growth of vegetation when direct spreading is not possible) the outer layer of the granules is peeled off and these are lifted to the surface, the larvicide composites release the larvicide.
  
  Advantages of the technology:
  
  - The special low-density highly porous carrier material can absorb a lot of liquid (ca. double of its weight), namely the fermentation liquor containing larvicides
  - The air-drying in mild conditions gives a stabilized encapsulated biological mosquito killing agent without liophylization step
  - The chemical composition of the granules gives an appropriate medium to stabilize and enhance the effectivity of the enzymes of larvicides
  
  Advantages of the product:
  
  • Low-density and sizes
  • Cheap air-spreadability
  • High surface density on water
  • Controlled larvicide capacity
  • Floatability and time-dependent sinkability
  • Low production costs
  • Selectivity for blood-sucking mosquitoes
  • Combinability with other active ingredients
  • No environmental pollution
  • Long storage ability
  • Combination with attractants for female mosquitoes to put larva in a treated area
  
  Potential areas of use:
  Typical application areas:
  - environment protection
  - agriculture
  - tourism
  - war against malaria, dengi and mosquito-spreaded diseases
  Typical customers:
  - municipalities
  - government (E.g. India) Leer más

  Aspectos nuevos e innovadores
  
  Cellular materials are a new and attractive type of materials with remarkable applications in various sectors. The manufacturing process can be applied to polymers, ceramic, cements, glass.
  
  The process consists in the creation of oxygen bubbles within a material by decomposition of hydrogen peroxide, which generates independent cellular cavities within the material. All this is done with the materials and techniques most suitable to generate these cavities in each case.
  Cellular materials consist of a series of connected or unconnected cells or pores.
  Currently, the methods used to obtain cell materials are two:
  
  1. Synthetic foams that are mixed with the material that is intended to become cellular, so that the air bubbles are covered by the foam and the foam by the material. The main disadvantages are:
  
  - Variation of the material chemical composition
  - Foam requires large volumes
  - High structural costs in logistics
  - Special machinery required for both manufacture and handling including high pressure pumps for the foam.
  - In situ production is unviable
  - Complex chemical industry involved
  
  2. Adding aluminium powder and lime to the material that is intended to turn into cellular product so that the reaction produces hydrogen bubbles. The main difficulties are:
  
  - Lime is corrosive and therefore limits the materials to be modified
  - The explosive nature of hydrogen when mixed with air requires adequate facilities for production on a large scale.
  - Variation of the chemical composition of the original material restricts the types of materials that can be used.

  Currently, considerable quantities of lingo-cellulosic residues are generated continuously in many sectors of the agro-food industry. If these can be suitably processed, they are of great commercial interest to industry as potential raw materials for the production of biofuels and a variety of other high value-added products.
  
  The residual biomass of the agro-food industry typically has a high content in lipids, carbohydrates, proteins and other compounds of industrial interest. The only limitations to its use as a precursor of biofuel are the economic viability of the process for obtaining these precursors and their quality.
  
  One of the byproducts of special interest for this application is spent beer grain, also known as bagasse; given the existing lack of commercial value, this bagasse is widely available as a low-cost raw material. Currently, the principal application of bagasse is as feedstuff for livestock. In general, bagasse does not represent a source of income for breweries, and the reason why it is sold is to minimize the associated problems of waste management and disposal.
  
  The UCA research group on "Allelopathy in Higher Plants and Microorganisms" (FQM- 286) has developed an acid hydrolysis procedure whereby precursor materials for biofuels and other high -value-added products are obtained from beer bagasse. Its content in lipids and food fibre (equal to or more than 5% and 20%, dry weight, respectively), make it an ideal material for this application. This would represent a more attractive commercial outlet for many of the residues resulting from operations of the agro-food industry, and in particular, for beer bagasse.
  
  The object of the process is to obtain two different products. The first is an oil consisting mainly of the fats contained in the bagasse; the second is a substance rich in sugars or molasses. The oil is of interest as raw material for the production of biodiesel by the process of transesterification; the molasses can be employed as raw material for the production of bio-ethanol by means of fermentation. Molasses can also be formulated as sugar, after a crystallization process.
  
  The oil would be particularly useful for correcting the viscosity of biodiesel, thus achieving the optimum parameters for its use as biofuel.
  
  In outline, the process developed by the research group consists of a principal line, in which a series of operations take place for the conditioning of the bagasse, such as milling, extraction of lipids and the separation of the resulting solids. Downstream, this line divides into two secondary lines: in one line, for production of oils, the solvents from the prior extraction stage are separated out; in the other secondary line, for the production of molasses, an acid hydrolysis of the sugars is carried out.
  
  Another significant feature is that the optimum operating mode of the process is continuous operation, although batch loading is also accepted. Leer más

  “Ludwig” underwater plasma technology for the removal of dissolved organic content of industrial waste waters
  
  The offering client is a Hungarian SME. The profile of the company: research and development in the fields of industrial waste management, environmental protection, electrochemistry, chemistry.
  
  Waste waters that contain dissolved organic materials are produced in enormous quantities worldwide. Industrial waste waters that contain toxic organic components cannot be purified using conventional biological water treatment technologies. The toxic organic compounds are to be removed first using expensive separation technologies. The separated, toxic organic materials are usually incinerated in the end, resulting in a very expensive and complex water treatment technology.
  
  The offer of our client provides a new water cleaning technology called “underwater plasma technology”. The underwater plasma technology is a new technology for the “incineration” of liquid wastes containing hazardous organic components. The decomposition of the organic materials takes place in an electric plasma zone generated in diluted aqueous solutions. The water content of the liquid waste does not need to be evaporated, therefore, the energy consumption of the process is low compared to other combined separation-incineration processes.
  
  During the decomposition of organic materials mostly carbon dioxide, nitrogen and water are formed, while the inorganic salt content of the solution remains unchanged.
  
  The plasma zone is formed on the surface of submerged electrodes, based on the effect of alternating current and sufficient voltage. Because of an alternating current with a frequency of at least 10 Hz, electrochemical reactions can not take place, because of this reason hydrogen and oxygen is not generated. The decomposition of the organic components takes place because of the extremely high temperature and UV radiation of the plasma. This can be further intensified by adding oxidizing agents, preferentially hidrogen-peroxide.
  
  Main advantages:
  
  - The technology can be applied at explosion-prone areas.
  - The inorganic salt content of the solution remains unchanged (other solutions increase the salt content).
  - The technology presents a cheaper solution compared to other separation-incineration solutions in case of a small amount of organic components (incineration is unprofitable), or where environmental aspects do not allow incineration.
  
  Potential users:
  Chemical industry: Cleaning of waste waters of the pharmaceutical and petrochemical industries, e.g. removal of mercaptane or methanol.
  Energetics: Decomposition of iron or radionucleide containing EDTA complexes that are generated in high quantities during the maintenance of nuclear power plants.
  Armaments industry: Elimination of biological and chemical warfare agents, e.g. bacteria and picric acid.
  Medical and sanitary applications: Desinfection of various effluents.
  Petrochemical industry: degradation of organic sulphur included in alkaline wastes, produced by the oil industry.

  Our partner, a Hungarian SME has developed a new procedure for the remediation of hydrocarbon contaminated soils and organic waste. The aim of our partner is to utilise different compost-based end-products and organic secondary raw materials which are not suitable for agricultural use.
  
  Hydrocarbon contaminations are of major concern at many contaminated industrial sites throughout the world. The biodegradation of soil-bound hydrocarbon contaminations or hydrocarbon organic waste is a two-step process, which involves initial mobilization from the solid to aqueous phase, followed by subsequent microbial catabolism.
  
  The aim of the company’s research was to develop a brand new complex technology which is based on the following elements:
  1. enhancing bioavailability of organic micro-pollutants
  2. application of various organic and inorganic nutrient amendments during the aerobic phase I. and II. processes
  3. utilisation of end-products from composting and aerobic stabilization plants
  4. immobilization of organic and inorganic micro-pollutants by using composted or stabilized secondary raw materials
  
  The complex technology can be divided into three phases (Figure):
  1. pre-treatment of the contaminated soil or organic waste: enhancing bioavailability of organic micro-pollutants: by applying non-ionic surfactant
  2. rapid biodegradation of organic contaminants during aerobic phase I. and phase II. processes by using organic and inorganic amendments and microbial inocula
  3. immobilization of inorganic and organic micro-pollutants by using end-products from composting and aerobic stabilization plants
  
  Innovative considerations
  
  - enhancing bioavailability of TPH, PAH compounds before the biobed-pile treatment
  - utilization of compost and stabilized organic wastes which are not suitable for agricultural use
  - use of compost as a carrier of useful microbes for inoculation of hydrocarbon contaminated soils
  - our technology is consists of two aerobic stage for the best biodegradation of different organic micro-pollutants
  - waste-free utilization of organic residues from bioenergy plants
  - immobilization of non-biodegradable compounds using composted non hazardous organic wastes
  
  Potential users
  
  The offered technology can be used by fuel distributors or companies who are interested in oil-processing.

Como material inorgánico podría ser utilizado varios tipos de arcillas por sus propiedades nanoscópicas y, como material orgánico, colorantes naturales o sintéticos (thermochrome, eletrochrome, luminiscencia, etc.)
  
  El grupo de investigación ha desarrollado un nuevo método para producir pigmentos híbridos nanoestructurados con propiedades ópticas y coloidales específicas de acuerdo a los parámetros de producción. Principalmente, la customizaton del comportamiento de estos materiales se consigue mediante el control del ratio material orgánico / inorgánico.
  
  Compartir tecnología
  
  Aspectos nuevos e innovadores
  
  This method has two stages:
  
  1) Dispersion of, at least, an inorganic material in water.
  2) Addition of, at least, an organic coloring solubilized by agitation.
  
  The following parameters might be changed in order to obtain different kinds of nanopigments:
  
  • Inorganic material concentration.
  • Organic coloring concentration.
  • pH.
  • Temperature.
  • Ionic strength.
  
  The optical response of nanopigments changes as a function of the particle size of the inorganic material (or materials) used by the diffusion.
  
  This method makes it possible to produce new hybrid nanopigments with optical and colloidal properties for tailored applications. Mainly, the customizaton of the behaviour of this materials is achieved by controlling organic/inorganic ratio in the material.
  
  The morphology of the material is hybrid (laminar/fibrillar). The organic coloring is selected among different types: azoic complexes, metallic, sulphurose, iminoquinone, antraquinone, ftalocianine, etc. In general words, they can be both natural or synthetic.
  
  Products can be used in printing inks, painting and dyes, paper, synthetic or natural fibers, polymer materials, cosmetics, etc.
  
  With this method the following features can be achieved:
  
  Color range control: Through the control over the different spectral species, the optical response is modified too, so the color range can be enlarged.
  
  Increase in the colouring power: The ability of the material for increasing the absorption on the surface is linked to three parameters. First, absorption coefficient of the nanopigment in relation to the coloring solution coefficient. Second, light dispersion caused by nanoparticles and addtiional coverage of the surface to fill. Third, reology and fisico-chemical properties of the material are able to obtain homogeneous dispersions.
  
  Environmental impact reduction: Some of the usual pigments contain heavy metals in its composition while inorganic solids used in this method are free of heavy metals and can even be used in cosmetics. Natural coloring can be combined with these nanopigments and obtain a new product which will be environmental safe. Leer más
