The Collaborative Programme in Additive Manufacturing is an initiative of the Department of Science and Innovation hosted and managed by the CSIR.
Over the past 10 years, the programme has successfully fostered new knowledge generation in the field of additive manufacturing (AM) and supported a large cohort of postgraduate students conducting research projects focused on both metal AM and polymer AM technology value chains.
During the event, the MMP featured a mix of exhibitions, technological demonstrations, breakaway sessions, an exciting panel discussion and an anchor address by DSTI’s Deputy Director-General, Dr Mmboneni Muofhe; CSIR CEO, Dr Thulani Dlamini and the Minerals Council South Africa CEO, Mzila Mthenjane.
Through MMP’s Advanced Orebody Knowledge (AOK) Programme, the event showcased local and global innovative technologies aimed at creating “glass-rock” environments for mining development and technology adoption in South Africa.
Proposals are hereby invited for the following two separate and independent elements within the RIS:
- Regional Innovation Networking platforms (aimed at establishing a networking platform to bring together research, development and innovation communities, technology SMMEs, industry and government.
- Feasibility study or business plan support for technology incubators, science parks or other innovation enabling mechanisms.
The successful consortia will work closely with the Technology Localisation Implementation Unit (TLIU) as implementing agency on behalf of DST for the RIS programme. Read more...
Up to 50% of the annual inflows into the Western Cape’s Berg River Dam catchment and Limpopo’s De Hoop Dam catchment could be used up by alien plants over a period of 45 years, if they are left uncleared. This is the warning issued by water experts Dr David Le Maitre of the CSIR; Dr James Blignaut of Stellenbosch University; Prof. Lynette Louw, Prof. Tally Palmer and Mr Ian Preston of Rhodes University in a recent paper published by the Water Research Commission in the Water SA journal, titled Impact of invasive alien plants on water provision in selected catchments
South Africa’s photonics industry is set to benefit from the state-of-the-art Photonics Prototyping Facility (PPF) that was unveiled at the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) on Friday, 5 March 2021.
The facility will enhance the development of photonics-based products, specifically the prototype-development phase, to test the market for acceptance of the planned product in the country. It offers class 1 000 clean rooms, technical and optical equipment, ranging from electronic, mechanical and diagnostic equipment, for a variety of wavelengths.
The Spectrum Switch is a cloud-hosted software platform that is capable of dynamic identification and availing for sharing by network devices, the unused broadcast television spectrum in any given geo-location of interest, commonly referred to as Television White Space (TVWS).
The Spectrum Switch functions in compliance to the 2018 regulations on the use of television whitespaces, as gazetted by the Independent Regulatory Authority of South Africa (ICASA). Read more...
The African Union Development Agency (AUDA-NEPAD), in partnership with the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and Stellenbosch University (SU), have launched a Centre of Excellence in Science, Technology and Innovation to upscale and commercialise home-grown innovations on the continent.
The AUDA-NEPAD Centre of Excellence in Science, Technology and Innovation (AUDA-NEPAD CoE-STI) is one of five centres of excellence, which are the African Union’s (AU) instruments for leveraging knowledge and science-backed innovations to support accelerated implementation of Agenda 2063.
The negative effects of climate change on a global and national scale needs collection of accurate data on the climate system at various spatial and time scales.
CSIR research in this domain is crucial for the protection of national water resources and the environment from the impact of water pollution.
