Awareness of climate change and stricter emission regulations have accelerated the search for sustainable energy solutions. A central goal is carbon-neutral energy use, minimizing greenhouse gas emissions while ensuring reliable energy supply. In applications with limited grid access—such as festivals, …

The increasing interest in Aronia melanocarpa berries for their antioxidant properties sets the necessity to define sustainable strategies to valorize the by-products. This study investigates the use of supercritical carbon dioxide (scCO2) extraction, with and without ethanol as a co-solvent, for recovering …

Understanding how horses interact with landscapes is key to designing environments that support welfare and biodiversity. Yet, little is known about how domestic horses use specific elements within a landscape. This study examined the behavioral interactions of seven Swedish warmblood …

Climate change, driven by anthropogenic global warming, is having profound effects on marine ecosystems. The western Dutch Wadden Sea is particularly vulnerable to these changes due to its shallow and dynamic characteristics. Rising water temperatures and thermal fluctuations are known to influence the …

The increasing temperature of the past years has a negative impact on the agricultural sector. This is affecting crop growth negatively, as a result from the heat and drought stress the crops are experiencing. Moreover, the experienced heat and drought stress results in erosion of the soil, causing …

This work presents an experimental holistic approach for the design of a continuous catalytic conversion process of carbohydrates derived from waste biomass to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) using a tin-doped active carbon catalyst. In this report, apple biomass waste is used as a model component as …

The benefits of having a high indoor environmental quality (IEQ) for a healthy life and optimal performance are well known. In addition, research has been executed on the effects of indoor environmental parameters such as (day)light, sound/ acoustics, temperature, and air quality on people living with …

Addressing the challenges of road construction in high-temperature regions, this research focuses on the technical and economic comparison between traditional asphalt pavement and recycled plastic asphalt pavement. The overarching research question is: “Technical and economical comparison of traditional …

At an aquaponics farm in Luxembourg called “Fësch Haff” the effect of the water quality on the growth rate and behaviour of the rainbow trout has been analysed. Three times a week the water quality in the fish tank expressed by temperature, KH (carbonate hardness), pH, ammonium/ammonia, nitrite, nitrate …

Stargazing Live! aims to capture the imagination of learners with a combination of live and interactive planetarium lessons, real astronomical data, and lessons built around interactive knowledge representations. The lessons were created using a co-creation model and tackle concepts in the pre-university …
