Starting with September 2016, Dr. Mircea Vinatoru has started running the ULTRA_MINT project. The project is part of the EU Competitiveness Operational Programme 2014-2020, Action 1.1.4: Attracting high-level personnel from abroad in order to enhance the RD capacity, project: P_37_471.
The official name of the project is: Ultrasonic/Microwave Nonconventional Techniques as new tools for nonchemical and chemical processes, ULTRAMINT PROJECT
The project’s objective
To create a core of high level scientific and technological competence. This will allow studies ultrasound and microwaves upon chemical and non-chemical as well as on some biological processes.
The project’s duration
The project till run for 4 years starting from 05 September 2016
