NanoPAT at the 14th MeCCE
From 16-20 November 2020, MeCCE organised the 14th Mediterranean Congress of Chemical Engineering (MeCCE-14) virtually, as it is in this current times.
From 16-20 November 2020, MeCCE organised the 14th Mediterranean Congress of Chemical Engineering (MeCCE-14) virtually, as it is in this current times.
Starting with the virtual Kick-Off Meeting (on November 5th) of the CEN workshop proposed within the context of the EU H2020 project OYSTER, NanoPAT gave its first step in the cooperation with OYSTER in the achievement of standard terminology for the description of metadata of materials characterisation and databases, following OYSTER’s guidance and knowhow.
Project website
The NanoPAT deliverable “D7.1 – Public project website online” is now available to view online. The report is available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence (CC BY 4.0).
This deliverable is part of the work package 7 (WP7) – Knowledge Transfer and Dissemination.
The project partner BNN was responsible for developing the project website.
This document presents the project website and the logo that have been developed. The project website will be one of the main channels for communication and dissemination of project objectives, activities and outcomes. Therefore, it will be regularly updated to provide continuous information about the project to both the Commission, scientific and industrial communities, and the general public.
In the last BNN newsletter (pages 10-11), in September 2020, the project NanoPAT was presented, giving an overview about the main project facts, ideas and objectives.
Report on the state-of-the-art review
The NanoPAT deliverable “D1.2 – Report on the state-of-the-art review” is now available to view online. The report is available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Licence (CC BY 4.0).
This deliverable, leaded by University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), is part of the work package 1 (WP1) – Definition of the nano-monitoring technologies requirements.
This deliverable discusses the state-of-the-art measurement techniques in the context of particle sizing and industrial application. Inline and offline techniques are shortly discussed, with a focus on the inline applicability of the considered techniques. In this discussion the terms inline, online and atline need to be discriminated. Inline monitoring will happen directly inside the process, at best faster than observable process changes. Online analysers are connected to the process (e.g. in a bypass) and ideally have a similar time resolution like inline analysers. Atline devices are separated but close to the process, while offline analysis happens spatially and timely separated.
Inventory and preliminary assessment on availability of commercial solutions for nanoprocesses monitoring

This document shows a summary of the most relevant characterization techniques used to measure particle sizes and size distribution. These techniques are classified in three main approaches depending on the particle size distribution (PSD) analysis, which are ensemble, separation and counting methods. Each of the methods explained in the present document are based on different physical principles and present their own advantages and limitations. Only few of the techniques reviewed are valid for online/inline analysis.
In the August 2020, the Medical University of Graz, as project partner, published several press releases in order to promote the project and their role in it.
In the very beginning of the project, the University of Postdam , as project partner, published 2 press releases in order to promote the project and their role in it.
In June 2020 (4th and 5th) the partners of NanoPAT met, virtually, to kick off this nice new project.
