Protocol for SI-traceable validation of methods for biomethane conformity assessment (BiometCAP)

Our role

VSL is leading the work package on creating impact which includes dissemination and communication activities as well as the exploitation and uptake of the project outputs. In the technical work package 1, VSL will gravimetrically and dynamically prepare and validate gas transfer standards to be used for the performance evaluation of analytical systems and will optimize the dynamic preparation facility. In work package 2, VSL will together with other partners working on the development of a comprehensive protocol for the validation and performance evaluation of the analytical instruments and methods that are used in the conformity assessment of biomethane. VSL will also work on the validation of the fitness of purpose of the protocol by demonstrating its applicability for the analysis of a number of parameters.

Start date: 1 October 2022
End date: 30 September 2025

Virtual experiments and digital twins (ViDiT)

Virtual experiments and digital twins are key enabling technologies to achieve and realise European strategic policies devoted to sustainability and digitalisation within the complex framework of Industry 4.0 and the European Green Deal.

Metrology for Aerosol Optical Properties (MAPP 19ENV04)

The goal of this project is to enable the Si-traceable measurements of column-integrated aerosol optical properties retrieved from the passive remote sensing of atmosphere using solar and lunar measurements.

RMG Research on optical microscopes (Research Mobility Grant 20FUN02-RMG1)

This Research mobility grant together with EMPIR project 20FUN02 POLight aims to enhance multiple optical measurement methods for use in nano-metrology.

Pushing boundaries of nano-dimensional metrology by light (20FUN02 POLight)

This project addresses this issue by developing novel methods to help bridge the metrology gap and in turn foster KET innovation. More specifically, this project will push the boundaries of optical measurement methods by realising a new generation of optical metrology systems, with unprecedented performances in terms of spatial resolution, traceability, reliability and robustness.

Traceable metrology of soft X-ray to IR optical constants and nanofilms for advanced manufacturing (20IND04 ATMOC)

The optics and semiconductor industries use innovative materials and complex nanostructures in their products whose optical properties are difficult to measure and often not accurately known. This project is developping advanced mathematical methods to traceably characterise these materials for wavelength ranges from soft X-ray to IR.

Traceable industrial 3D roughness and dimensional using optical 3D microscopy and optical distance sensors (20IND07 TracOptic)

To remain competitive, European manufacturers strive to make constant improvements in their manufacturing processes. The surface topography of a component part can have a profound effect on the function of the part. This is true across a wide range of industries (such as precision engineering, automotive and medical).

Standardisation of measurements for DC electricity grids (20NRM03 DC grids)

The shift towards more renewable and sustainable technologies has increased the attractiveness of DC grids as an alternative or addition to the existing AC grids

Green Transport Delta – Hydrogen

The main goal of the Green Transport Delta – Hydrogen project is to develop three hydrogen technologies: hydrogen combustion engines, hydrogen fuel cells, and next generation technology for hydrogen refueling infrastructure.

Metrology for traceable protocols for elemental and oxidised mercury concentrations (19NRM03 SI-Hg)

Creating a metrological framework to support growing demands for ‘green’ hydrogen as part of the EU’s climate strategy.

Metrology for temporal light modulation

LED-based lighting contributes to energy saving and the reduction of the environmental impact of lighting. However, LED lamps can show fluctuations in the light output known as temporal light modulation (TLM)
