CORDIS provides links to public deliverables and publications of HORIZON projects.

Links to deliverables and publications from FP7 projects, as well as links to some specific result types such as dataset and software, are dynamically retrieved from OpenAIRE .

Deliverables

Demonstrators, pilots, prototypes (1)

Demonstration of NRR in aqueous media through inter-laboratory study

At the end of this project, the VERGE consortium plans to publicly demonstrate a benchtop process for electrochemical ammonia production from nitrogen reduction reaction, with results from three different laboratories. This deliverable will initiate a venture to scaling up.

Websites, patent fillings, videos etc. (1)

Website and social media accounts

In months 112 of the project a project website will be designed for the VERGE project as well as a social media account on eg Twitter elaborated on in section 221 Continuous updates throughout the project as results applicable for dissemination are produced

Documents, reports (2)

Several Peer reviewed publications in ISI journals

Throughout the project, UoI, RWTH, ATM and VITO will publish several peer reviewed research articles in ISI journals. The goal is to publish reliable and reproducible results in well-established journals and for the most interesting results we aim at publishing them in high-impact journals. Open access policy will be used as a criteria when selecting journals for scientific publication.

RF Final Report

A final Regulatory Framework report will analyse legal up-to-date mechanisms that exist on national, European and International levels regarding safety standards, chemical production, ammonia synthesis, storage and transport.
