Co-funded research projects

Our co-funded research projects offer a unique possibility for Swedish companies and sectors to be a part of research projects at IVL with equal funding from government and industry.

All private companies and organisations can take part in co-funded research projects. Public agencies that conduct business are considered as industry and can as such be eligible for co-funded research. Click here to read more about co-funded research at IVL.

A few of our co-funded research projects are listed below:

  • A City Structure Adapted to Climate Change - scenarios for Future Frihamnen
    A transdisciplinary research project on urban climate change within Mistra Urban Futures.
  • ARCH - Architecture and roadmap to manage multiple pressures on lagoons
    The ARCH research project “Architecture and roadmap to manage multiple pressures on lagoons” aims to develop participative methodologies in collaboration with policy makers, local authorities and stakeholders to anage the multiple problems affecting lagoons (estuarine coastal areas).
  • Ecoheat4Cities (E4C)
    Establishment of a European green energy (heating and cooling) labelling scheme
  • EcoWater
    The project EcoWater develops eco-efficiency indicators for water use sectors at a meso-level. The project aims to highlight how the introduction of innovative technologies in water systems will affect the systems financial performance and environmental impact.
  • Environmental assessment tool for freight and passenger transport
    Environmental database and internet-based calculation tool. The project is a collaboration with NTM and buyers and providers of freight and passenger transport services with the aim of developing the environmental impact assessment tool of the future.
  • ERUF-EKO
    ERUF-EKO, Ecological adaption of the post WWII urban areas, is a regional project involving the conversion of post-war urban areas, both residential and commercial. Main focus in the project is conversion to an ecological state, where chemicals and hazardous substances are removed and the domestic energy use minimised.
  • PhosCad
    The Baltic Sea suffers from eutrophication as a result of long term heavy anthropogenic pressure, observed on the surface as excessive seaweed and algae production but also measured as oxygen depletion further down. In the southern parts of Sweden, seaweed and algae also accumulate in large numbers on the beaches. An interesting action is to make use of forceps and filamentous algae as renewable resources through biogas production and sludge production.
  • PROTECT
    PROTECT (Processes and technologies for environmentally friendly recovery and treatment of scrap, EU contract no. RFSR-CT-2010-00004) is a steel industry research project co-founded by the European Research Fund for Coal and Steel (RFCS). PROTECT aims at developing a new innovative method for a combined scrap preheating and surface cleaning, specifically for steels containing zinc coatings.
  • RE-PATH
    Risks and Effects of the dispersion of PFAS on Aquatic, Terrestrial and Human populations in the vicinity of international airports.
  • Waste prevention with eco parks
    A research project investigating the environmental benefits from reuse at the eco park Alelyckan.
