• Nationally Determined Contribution to reduce risks on all development sectors by 2030 through local capacity strengthening, improved knowledge management, convergent policy on climate change adaptation, and disaster risks reduction, and application of adaptive technologies.  

Context

During COP23, the Centre provided country Parties and other stakeholders with a platform to discuss progress and trends in technology transfer in terms of bridging gaps between countries' technology planning and the innovators and financiers implementing technology solutions. Below, you'll find a selection of presentations from various CTCN events at COP23.

GRID-Arendal is a Norwegian foundation that supports the United Nations Environment Programme.  It is a centre of excellence for the scientific analysis of environmental issues in many areas including environmental assessments, ocean issues and polar regions.

The Global Environment Centre Foundation (GEC) is an entity that supports the UNEP’s International Environmental Technology Centre (IETC), based in Japan. GEC is dedicated to the transfer of environmentally sound technologies, in both developing countries and countries with economies in transition. The foundation aims to contribute to Japan’s international efforts on the environment, sharing project collaborations as well as promoting Japan’s rich conservation knowledge and experience in developing nations.

The present invention relates to a nozzle for use in a metalworking process whereby the nozzle is designed to precisely deliver an oil-containing liquid and non-flammable gas mixture onto the interface between a metalworking tool and a workpiece whereby the nozzle is comprised of a tip and a valve body affixed to one another. Furthermore the present invention relates to a method for cooling and lubricating a tool and workpiece during a metalworking process. It is well known that fluids in machining operations serve two purposes: heat transfer and lubrication.

Project ID: D2009-44 Background: Exhaust streams generated by the combustion of fossil fuels contain different types of pollutants such as carbon monoxide oxides of sulfur and nitrogen unburned hydrocarbons and volatile organic compounds oxides. While there are different catalytic devices and methods to treat exhaust streams it is difficult to remove certain pollutants found within those streams. The rate of conversion of the pollutants often depends upon the exhaust gas temperatures. There is an initial time period between when exhaust emissions begin (i.e.

Researchers at Notre Dame pioneered the use of ionic liquids for use in gas separation. And this work continues today with an eye towards applications in natural gas purification effluent treatment pre-combustion separations supported liquid membranes and gas drying.

The present invention relates generally to wastewater treatment and more particularly to utilizing shear energy to promote the breakdown of solid constituents of a wastewater stream.

Summary: Metallic microparticles are used to improve the rate of retention of fine materials and enhance the rate of drainage of water during the paper making process. A method for the production of synthetic mineral particles by admixing soluble metal salt and one or more compounds is described. For example this method can be used to produce silicate by the reaction of a meta-silicate with metal salt. Furthermore these particles produced provide a system of agglomeration useful in water treatment.

Background: An optical waveguide is a structure that guides electromagnetic waves in the optical spectrum. Optical waveguides commonly are used to support and illuminate photocatalysts; for example they could be used in remediating effluent waste streams by photocatalytic oxidation or photooxidation. Transition metal oxides such as titanium dioxide are effective photocatalysts.
