Sustainable urban drainage systems (SuDS) such as swales are designed to collect, store and infiltrate a large amount of surface runoff water during heavy rainfall. Stormwater is known to transport pollutants, such as particle-bound heavy metals, which are known to often accumulate in the topsoil. In …

Sustainable Urban Drainages Systems (SuDS) are designed to collect, store and infiltrate large amount of surface runoff water during heavy rainfall. Surface runoff water is known to transport pollutants such as particle bound heavy metals. Therefore, a build-up of pollutants in the top-soil, of the commonly …

Herein, Zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 (ZIF-8) is considered as an easy and cheap to prepare alternative catalyst for the isomerization of glucose and production of 5-hydroxymethyl furfural (HMF). For the synthesis of the ZIF-8 catalysts two preparation methods were evaluated, being room temperature …

Om de potentie van katalysatoren ingebouwde in een redox actieve Metal–Organic framework (MOFs) volledig te benutten moet de charge transport / elektron hopping worden geoptimaliseerd. Voor het optimaal functioneren van een katalysator zal de drijfkracht achter het mechanisme van elektron hopping moeten …

Stormwater runoff has severe negative and direct impact on the quality of surface waters and groundwater. The impact can cause chemical and heavy-metal pollution. Applying well established methods to map pollutants in urban areas and specifically in Nature-Based Solutions (NBS), such as Sustainable Urban …

In Nederland wordt er steeds meer hoogbouw gebouwd met de functie woningbouw. Dit komt doordat er minder ruimte is om te bouwen, waardoor er sneller de hoogte in gebouwd moet worden. Samen met INBO is er een keuze gemaakt om naar de gevelsystemen van hoogbouw te kijken. De gevels zijn laatste tijd veel …

Objective: Post-mortem computed tomography (PMCT) is an established method for disease, complications, and cause of death determination in both clinical and forensic cases. By adding intravascular infusion of contrast medium, computed tomography angiography (PMCTA) provides additional information on …

For 40 years, companies and academia see logistics as a main ‘process’ within companies. Supply chain become an individual department similar as purchasing, sales, finance and R&D. Focussing on supply chain can lead to success but still are a lot of companies not aware of the possibilities of this discipline. …

In de huidige samenleving is de elektriciteit een bepalend factor, het is de brandstof voor het gebruik van alle elektronische apparaten en installaties. Het verlies van elektriciteitenergie door het transport, heeft de werkgroep All Electric DC Wiki-house ertoe gezet om dit nader te onderzoeken. De …

In this study we examined how physical features of a natural setting influenced perceived coherence and three positive outcome variables: preference, pleasure, and (self-reported) restoration. Furthermore, we examined the mediating role of perceived coherence. One hundred thirty-one students evaluated …
