Remaining Useful Life (RUL) estimation is directly related with the application of predictive maintenance. When RUL estimation is performed via data-driven methods and Artificial Intelligence algorithms, explainability and interpretability of the model are necessary for trusted predictions. This is especially …

The use of H-ZSM-5 with various binders (Al2O3, SiO2, and kaolinite, 10 wt% on catalyst formulation) for the catalytic conversion of glycerol to bio-based aromatics (GTA) was investigated in a continuous bench-scale unit at a pyrolysis temperature of 450 °C, catalytic upgrading temperature of 500 °C, …

The sustainable provision of enough nutritious food for a growing world population is pushing the food system towards finding new approaches to agriculture (Ockenden, et al., 2017). While the demand of animal products is rising (Armanda, Guinée, & Tukker, 2019), the negative effect on the climate, soil, …

The cryptophyte Rhodomonas salina is widely used in aquaculture due to its high nutritional profile. This study aims to investigate the effect of salinity and pH on the growth, phycoerythrin concentrations, and concentrations of non-volatile umami taste active compounds of R. salina, using a design of …

Limestone is a sedimentary rock that is composed mostly of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Limestone is, among many applications, used as a raw material for the manufacture of quicklime. When limestone is heated, the stone calcinates and quicklime is formed. The primary use of quicklime is in the steel and …

Slotbijeenkomst LIBBIO (Lupinus mutabilis for Increased Biomass from marginal lands and value for BIOrefineries)

Martien Visser geeft de lezers een waarschuwing en vier tips over het aanstaande PBL-rapport waarin de klimaatplannen van de politieke partijen worden doorgerekend.

Hoe verkrijg en behoud je, in een democratie, voldoende draagvlak voor de energietransitie, vraagt Martien Visser zich af. “Weg met de zurigheid.”

The present invention relates to a novel process for the preparation of low molecular weight aromatic compounds such as benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX) from plastics. Provided is a thermo-catalytic pyrolysis process for the preparation of aromatic compounds from a feed stream comprising plastic, …

Nederland heeft geen goed track record als het aankomt op het realiseren van de klimaatdoelen, stelt Martien Visser. CCS kan wel eens de reddende engel blijken.
