The obscurity of learning resources for AAA Hero Asset creation remains quite a big issue for beginner to intermediate 3D artists. While quite an abundance of educational material on various themes and software exists, they are rarely connected, and only a few offer structured guidance. This thesis addresses …

This study provides insights into novel combinations of hydrothermal modifications and mineral enrichment by demonstrating the versatility of this environmentally more benign approach compared to other common chemical starch modifications like crosslinking. Heat-moisture treatment (HMT) (15% moisture, …

Pyrolysis liquids from lignocellulosic biomass have the potential to be used as a feed for aromatics such as benzene, toluene, and xylenes (BTX) using catalytic upgrading with zeolites. We here report an experimental study on the conversion of various pyrolysis oil fractions to determine the most suitable …

Een ziekenhuisbezoek kan voor kinderen spanning en angst oproepen, wat leidt tot zogenaamd procedureel leed, een combinatie van pijn, angst en focus. In opdracht van de afdeling Oogheelkunde van het LUMC en in samenwerking met Stichting Hospital Hero is daarom een oogheelkunde specifieke uitbreiding …

Native potato starch is an excellent carrier of minerals due to its inherent ion exchange capacity. Mineral enrichment not only changes the nutritional value but also influences starch pasting and swelling properties. Hydrothermal treatments like annealing constitute a straightforward and green way to …

The catalytic conversion of oleic acid to aromatics (benzene, toluene, and xylenes, BTX) over a granular H-ZSM-5/Al2O3 catalyst (ϕ 1.2–1.8 mm, 10 g loading) was investigated in a continuous bench-scale fixed-bed reactor (10 g oleic acid h–1). A peak carbon yield of aromatics of 27.4% was obtained at …

Modified starches are used widely in the food industry but often have a low nutritional value, lacking minerals vital for the human body, such as magnesium. Magnesium addition to native starches has been shown to result in changes in pasting properties. However, little work has been done on the addition …

Sustainable production of aromatics, especially benzene, toluene and xylenes (BTX), is essential considering their broad applications and the current global transition away from crude oil utilization. Aromatization of lower olefins, particularly ethene and propene, offers great potential if they are …

This research was done on behalf of ecohero, ecohero is experiencing a problem with its current social media marketing strategy. The company does not present as well on social media as management would like, in addition, no to hardly any sales are made through the social media marketing activities. Ecohero …

A time- and space-resolved deactivation study on the conversion of glycerol to aromatics over H-ZSM-5 was performed. For this purpose, glycerol was vaporized/pyrolyzed in a pyrolysis section followed by a catalytic aromatization step. Benchmark performance showed an induction period of ca. 20 min, followed …
