Wide Blue 31 March 2019

Wideblue, along with client RAB-Microfluidics, visited the Offshore Renewable Energy (ORE) Catapult’s National Renewable Energy Centre in Blyth as part of an Innovate UK-funded collaborative project. The project aims to revolutionise oil condition monitoring for the wind energy sector by using microfluidics. Microfluidics is a multidisciplinary field encompassing engineering, physics, chemistry and nanotechnology to create a lab-on-a-chip for screening, diagnostic and measurement.

RAB-Microfluidics are an Aberdeen-based start-up and have been developing their unique technology for five years. This is just one of a number of projects that RAB-Microfluidics is working on alongside Wideblue.
