See you in Europe next year! China-EU Cleantech Competition 2018 closes

 

" On November 13, the finals of the 2018 China-EU Cleantech Competition were held at the National Center for Technology Transfer East, where the top three companies were created and the first European Cleantech Competition, which lasted six months, came to an end."

 

"We are practicing the establishment of Shanghai's and the country's technology transfer policies and systems to create a fourth-party platform in order to bring dividends to the industry," said Mr. Zou Shujun, Executive Vice President of the National Technology Transfer Eastern Center, in his speech to the attendees from China and Europe, explaining that professional cross-border technology transfer services are important for technology cooperation transactions The occurrence of a strong mission.

Mr. Zac Tan from Sembcorp International Water Centre, Mr. Gao Qilin, President of Zhihe Environmental Solid Waste Technology Research Institute and the Managing Director of Qiming Ventures gave a presentation on the development of China's water technology innovation cluster and solid waste industry as well as the current status of cleantech investment in China before the start of the finals. Mr. Wu Xiaodong, Partner of To Tong International, Mr. Li Jianwei, Investment Director of Bomin Capital, and Mr. Zhang Chu, Vice President of Investment of Lidin Capital, participated in the final round of judging as heavyweight guest judges.

The Sino-European Cleantech Competition lasted six months, starting from the global recruitment in May, a total of 34 cleantech projects from 11 European countries participated in the competition, with the participation of a jury of experts from domestic and international industry and investment circles, 12 quality projects participated in the roadshow in Copenhagen, Denmark in September, and 5 of them with hard-tech product capabilities stood out to participate in the grand final in Shanghai, China, and finally. MEVA Energy from Sweden won the competition for its biomass gasification technology and equipment manufacturing, and received a cash prize of €10,000 and one year of free market development services in China.

Winner: MEVA ENERGY

Meva Energy offers industrial users a modular process heat alternative by using inexpensive wood chip biomass to produce syngas with a stable composition through pyrolysis gasification processes. Due to the stable composition of the gas and minimal variation in gas flow and pressure, it is possible to replace existing LPG or natural gas in sensitive industrial processes such as tissue paper drying.

Runner-up: MYCORENA

Mycorena uses its proprietary fungal pharmaceuticals and processes to resource highly organic wastewater and solid wastes, such as sludge, into feed for the aquaculture industry and bio-resin materials that can be used to purify wastewater and water supplies.

Second runner-up: SoletAer

SoletAer applies proprietary technology to design inline heat pumps that efficiently utilize solar energy to generate heat.

Fourth place: Airlabs

Airlabs' solution was developed through a combination of atmospheric chemistry and airflow engineering and implemented in conjunction with a nanocarbon filter to effectively remove nitrogen dioxide and other pollutants above 95%.

Fifth place: Cress System

CRESS SYSTEMS applies new technology to enable container ports and terminals to capture, store and reuse energy from container yard handling equipment to reduce fuel costs and emissions and better manage peak power demand. The commercial launch of the ProwESS energy capture, storage and reuse system for container terminal yard handling equipment has been completed at the Port of Felixstowe in the UK.

After the final round, European companies will travel to Nanjing to participate in the annual Global Cleantech Transfer and Investment and Financing Summit to collide and exchange ideas with more Chinese business and investment circles. The competition will enable more European companies to truly understand China and the Chinese market's demand for quality overseas technology.
