DITEC Development of novel Disinfection Technologies for Fresh Produce
Coordinator: UNIVERSITA TA MALTA (MT)
This project (DiTec) will respond to a requirement identified by the industry to coordinate and reinforce European research in sustainable cleaning and disinfection technologies of fresh produce. DiTec will result in a series of key innovations on disinfection technologies, which will address the impact of these new technologies on safety and shelf-life improvement of bean sprouts and fresh-(cut) lettuces. The overall objective of this project is to develop the new environmental friendly disinfection technologies of assisted ultrasound and the in-package cold atmospheric plasma for the fresh …
About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)
The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.
EU contribution: €100k awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 4 years from 2012-09-15 to 2016-09-14.
