Corrosion detection under coating
CORROSION MONITORING Offshore environment, as well as oil & gas environment, is extremely aggressive: It is necessary to anticipate the possible problem; it is necessary an adequate maintenance forecasting and planning
Labs equipped with testing facilities allowing a large number of corrosion tests in atmosphere, immersion or under mechanical solicitation to be performed according to standardized or specific demands. Materials Testing & Failure Analisys Material testing and characterization (i.e. chemical
composition determination, microstructure, mechanical properties: tensile test, fatigue,…).
Surface properties, i.e.: surface roughness, coating adherence, wettability, hardness, …).
Corrosion analysis, forecasting, assessment, control and monitoring.

IONIC LIQUIDS
IONIC LIQUIDS for different applications to overcome the current issues of raditional (non-ecofriendly, energy intensive, and expensive) industrial technologies.
Designing, synthesizing & physico-chemical characterizing of two different liquids ILs: consisting entirely of ions and
being liquid below 100°C Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs): made
by mixing a hydrogen bond acceptor (HBA) and hydrogen bond donor (HBD). Both may have high melting points (mp), to form an eutectic mixture with lower melting point
ILs properties • Negligible vapor pressure • Good lubrication properties • High thermal, chemical and mechanical
stability • Non-corrosive • Low eco- and human toxicity • Tunable viscosity • Broad liquid range • Broad electrochemical potential

GAS SEPARATION AND PURIFICATION > PSA and TSA Technologies
PSA and TSA TECHNOLOGIES
CO2 Separation Pure CH4 from biogas H2S removal Biogas cleaning (mixture of 60% CH4,
40% CO2, 1% H2O, 1000 ppm H2S, 100 ppm NH3)
Pressure Swing Adsorption technology for gas separation from high-pressure gas streams. The PSA process is based on preferential adsorption of the desired gas on a porous adsorbent at high pressure and recovery of the gas at low pressure. Whereas pressure swing adsorption (PSA) uses changes in pressure to release adsorbed gas, TSA modulates or swings temperature to drive off the adsorbed gas for gas separation from a mixture of gases.
CHEMICAL PROCESSES ENGINEERING > Advanced Fuels
ADVANCED FUELS Liquid fuels for land and air transport. We develop conversion processes based on biochemical, thermochemical and chemical-catalytic process combinations to obtain advanced fuels. A heterogeneous catalytic synthesis process has also been developed.
Additionally we work with Second Generation Biofuels (synthetic fuels and hydrogenated oils) that use non-food feedstocks; and on new conversion pathways for Third Generation liquid biofuels, so that algal biofuels become a competitive option on the energy market
PRODUCTION OF SECOND-GENERATION BUTANOL AND BIODIESEL Second-generation butanol presents high energy density, low volatility and less corrosiveness than ethanol. Second generation biodiesel from esterification of non-food high acidity oleaginous raw materials (olefins, animal fat and by-products from oil refining).
CHEMICALS’ SYNTHESIS Chemical and enzymatic synthesis stages aimed at obtaining building-blocks and end products. Our work goes from the selective fractionation of raw materials for the production of valuable products, using more sustainable and efficient processes than traditional ones.
RENEWABLE SYNTHETIC RUBBER Rubber made from biomass with the same features as synthetic rubber (1,3-butadiene), replacing it in its different applications: tyre, nylon, plastics and latex manufacturing. The synthesis pathways used combine both enzymatic and chemical-catalytic processes.
RENEWABLE NON-ISOCYANATE BASED POLYURETHANES WITH HIGH MECHANICAL STRENGTH We design synthesis pathways to produce non-isocyanate based polyurethanes. Our solutions avoid the drawbacks of using isocyanates in polyurethane production, such as their toxicity and the occasional need to ensure the absence of water in the reaction medium.

CARBON CAPTURE & VALORISATION > Power to GAS
By identifying the most suitable operational conditions and catalysts, we optimise the CO2-H2 reaction from CO2 whose composition is close to the contents in emissions from certain industrial processes: natural gas and biogas production, CCS technologies, etc.
POWER TO GAS: PRODUCTION OF GAS FROM POWER Power surplus from renewable energy are used in the electrolytic production of hydrogen, which in turn is used to produce methane by combining it with CO2. The aim is to produce gas from power injected in the natural gas grid, producing a bi-directional link between these two large energy infrastructures.
