Halfjaarlijks symposium van het Kenniscentrum NoorderRuimte, waarin onderzoeksresultaten van studenten en onderzoekers worden gedeeld. Deze specifieke sessie is georganiseerd door het lectoraat Klimaatadaptatie

De Stichting Jeugdteam Zaanstad en de Huisartsenzorg Zaanstreek Waterland hebben, in nauwe samenwerking met de gemeente Zaanstad, besloten in 2023 Praktijk Ondersteuners Huisartsen (POH's) Jeugd en Gezin in te zetten in de gemeente Zaanstad. Het eerste half jaar van deze implementatie van de POH in Zaanstad …

This inaugural volume, Breaking Barriers: Accelerating Transitions, brings together papers and abstracts presented at the Conference on Energy, Livestock, and Mobility Transitions, part of the New Energy Forum in Groningen. The publication reflects both the rapid development of the energy transition …

The success of the energy transition will depend not only on the rapid deployment of zeroemission technologies, but also on the expansion of renewable energy sources such as wind, solar, and hydrogen. Equally important is meaningful engagement with the communities affected by this transition. Despite …

The Netherlands is undergoing a massive (re)construction challenge. In addition to building new housing, a substantial part of the existing building stock of housing corporations is undergoing renovation. This renovation challenge has varying interactions with the energy transition, testified by the …

At the macro level, the Netherlands has become an agricultural giant thanks to its efficient, intensive farming practices. At the micro level, farmers are under pressure to make ever-larger investments and focus heavily on improving operational efficiency. This has led to a series of business decisions, …

This study compares three farm-scale biogas utilization pathways—combined heat and power (CHP), biogas upgrading, and bio-methanation—using process simulation and life cycle assessment to identify the most suitable option for on-farm application. Bio-methanation showed the highest practical energy efficiency, …

The integration of biomethane into existing gas distribution networks is a key component of the energy transition, but its implementation is often limited by local network constraints. This study investigates the impact of local pressure losses on biomethane injection capacity in a real-world low-pressure …

Ammonia is a major nitrogenous constituent of municipal wastewater and poses environmental challenges when discharged to receiving waters. Conventional biological treatment processes can be limited by operational instability, sensitivity to loading conditions, and greenhouse gas emissions, motivating …
