To validate the capacity of the UHDC and the new developments, the ReSHEALience project implements 6 pilots (TRL6-TRL7) covering two strategic sectors where the material is expected to add high value and generate large impacts: marine structures (XS – chloride induced corrosion) and infrastructures for geothermal/biomass energy plants (XA – chemical attack).
Geothermal power plant tower basin (EGP). Cooling tower fluid collection basins are critical due to the fluid aggressiveness and environmental risks.
Drilling platform mud collection basin (EGP). In drilling sites a residue basin is used during the mud recycling. Basins are chemically and mechanically stressed due to frequent cleaning.
Offshore aquaculture rafts made in Ultra High Performance Concrete, exposed to the marine environment.
Offshore floating platform for wind turbine based on UHDC (Rover Maritime).
Marine pontoon structure in UHDC, monitored for chloride induced corrosion in the Atlantic.
Harbour infrastructure element cast with crystalline waterproofing admixtures, validated in service conditions.
