Innovative Reactive Rust Converters (RRC)

Our patented RMD Low-Density Multifunctional Coats (LDMC) introduce two cutting-edge solutions. Firstly, the groundbreaking EON TECHNOLOGY SYSTEM offers robust protection against corrosive sea and atmospheric effects. An elastomeric membrane, with a dry thickness of 1,400 microns, shields anti-corrosive primers, ensuring genuine long-term protection for metal structures, exceeding 15 to 30 years. The second solution (RRC coatings) addresses a challenge in treating oxidized metal structures, simplifying rust removal without extensive preparation. Introducing RRC coatings, eliminating the need for conventional sandblasting. A gentle mechanical process, with the option of hydro cleaning, reduces waste, contributing to environmental preservation.

INNOVATIVE REPRODUCTION STURGEON FARM & SUSTAINABLE HARVESTERS

Vision "Our visions is to create a vibrant business in conservation of sturgeons in a global market of aquaculture, driven by innovations and value-added in a totally novel technology of reproduction sturgeon, to provide a new global standard reference in conservation a vulnerable and endangered species and to become the first option in protection to the last sturgeon, presents in the entire world." Missions "Our missions is to reproduce in large quantity 4 species of sturgeon present now in the Black See and Danube River Low Part, and offer for aquaculture global market farms, larvae’s and fries or juvenile sturgeon to be grow in an environmentally responsible manner with respect for the fish in order to produce ecologically and sustainable business, making our brand " ®OLOOSON" first suppliers option in the world." Objectives "Our objectives are to obtain high value profit without destroying the natural environment, to protect a species of venerable fish located in extinction and to build a business at a big commercial scale in the most sustainable model. All of this is intended to be our " ®OLOOSON" Sturgeon Factory."

Instituto de Telecomunicaes

To communicate with each other, microorganisms such as cells and microbes release into the extracellular space chemical messengers that change the ionic concentration and the potential at the interface between the cells and a sensing electrode where the microorganism adhere. These electrochemical bursts can be detected as small voltage signals. The sensor detects these bioelectrical signals in real time in a non-invasive way. The extracellular detected signals are strongly related with the biological activity of the cell population. Therefore, it provides direct information about the communication network. The sensor is capable to detect faint perturbations induced by external agents, such as contaminants, or drugs. The instrument can be used laboratory for research purposes. For example, to screen bioactive compounds or even operate in remote aquatic environments, namely in oceans and in lakes for high precision and real-time pollutants detection.

IOVuo Oy

For the world that needs higher level of positioning and movement accuracy, we offer advanced monitoring services that combine sensors, software and satellite data – for greater precision, ease of process, and cost efficiency, at first for the maritime industry. We have at this point two service products - monitoring of ship movement, and monitoring of structural changes. We currently have one pilot in a port in Indonesia for structural deformation monitoring, and another starting in December for berthing aid monitoring with Fortune 500 company. But next we will expand beyond the maritime industry to offer monitoring services more broadly, at first in Asia, but then in other parts of the world. We will also contribute to autonomous transport through our expertise in positioning accuracy. We are a 3-person team, but take advantage of sales and R&D partners in Asia.
