The International Societies of Exposure Science (ISES) and Indoor Air Quality and Climate (ISIAQ) proudly announce a joint conference “The built, natural, and social environments: impacts on exposures, health and well-being”. We aim at understanding the interactions between numerous and complex factors …

Teachers and students need good learning environments to perform well. In this study it is pre-supposed that the spatial properties of classrooms can contribute to the quality of the educational process. Thermal, acoustic and visual conditions and indoor air quality (IAQ) may be extremely powerful in …

The Andean lupin (Lupinus mutabilis) is one of the lost crops of Incas and has been grown in South America and as a food crop for thousands of years. The seeds are the main source of commercial value regarding the high content of oil (about 20%), protein (about 43%) and carbohydrates (about 33%). A European …

The project BioP2M came to a close in June 2019 after a consortium of stakeholders in the field of energy transition worked together to research the diverse role of Methane. In this report the results are presented and future plans are discussed.

One potential renewable energy resource is green gas production through anaerobic digestion (AD). However, only part of the biogas produced (up to 50-60%) contains the combustible methane; the remainder are incombustible gasses with the biggest being carbon dioxide. These gasses are often not used and …

Perfluoro alkyl substances (PFAS) are substances in which contain multiple fluorine atoms. The fluorine atoms are bound to, often, long carbon chains. PFAS are able to repel dirt and water, due to the large amount of fluorine atoms in the molecules. PFAS are also chemically and thermally stable. Many …

EnTranCe regularly welcomes international experts in the field of energy, sustainability and the transition towards a sustainable future. Last month, the Indian professor Anupam Saraph, visited EnTranCe and introduced students and researchers into the concepts of Future Design and System Dynamics Modeling. …

Improved remote sensing in the field of UAV (Unmanned Air Vehicle) and SFM (Structure From Motion) photography provides the potential for efficient access to forest inventory parameters. These parameters help identify the forest structure, calculate carbon stocks, support sustainable timber extraction …

The need to reduce carbon emissions calls for more use of renewable generation, particularly distributed resources. The intermittency of renewable generation, and concerns about energy security, require us to become more independent of central grid operation by use of local or regional (micro-grid) electricity …
