Closing Event

On December 13, the official closing event of Food Screening EMR took place at the Brightlands Greenport Campus in Venlo. We introduced our industrial demonstrators and all partners presented their achievements to industrial and political stakeholders in the region. The project was a big success and led to the translation of a lab-based technology into a portable industrial demonstrator for nutrient screening in liquid food products. We would like to thank all collaborators, all industrial stakeholders from the user group and last but not least the funding agencies: Interreg Meuse-Rhine (European Regional Development Fund of the EU), Ministerie van Economische Zaken en Klimaat, Provincie Limburg (NL), région Wallonne and Land NRW.

Today we had a consortium meeting for our Interreg Euregio Meuse-Rhine project Food Screening EMR. In this project, funded by the European Union via the European Regional Development Fund, we are developing new solutions to create healthy food products, measure their nutritional content and market the resulting products using food and health claims.

Thank you all for participating, it was great seeing you in person after having done so many online meetings in the past.

Video from EuroNews

28 june 2022

In June, we had a visit from Euronews to do a short news item on our Interreg Euregio Meuse-Rhine project “Food Screening EMR”. Several members of our department contributed to the report as did our partners from Hasselt University Yookr and Brightlands Campus Greenport Venlo.

The project is a collaboration between said partners and University of Liège RWTH Aachen University ZUMOLab GmbH and Nunhems Netherlands B.V. The project, focuses on improving the competitiveness of the euregional agrifood industry by e.g. implementing sensor technology. The vitamin sensor mentioned in this news item is an important focus point of the research component of the project.

Funding of the project by European Union Provincie Limburg Land NRW and Région wallonne is greatly appreciated!

Dat is nu nog toekomstmuziek, maar in het project Food Screening EMR werken bedrijven en kennisinstituten aan een apparaatje dat dit mogelijk maakt. In eerste instantie richten ze zich op de vitamines C en B11 in komkommer en asperge om de mogelijkheden in beeld te krijgen.
