Improving the sustainability of the Anaerobic Digestion (AD) process through modeling.Presentation given at the European Biomass Conference & Exhibition 2016 in Amsterdam regarding the local waste biomass availability for Anaerobic Digestion, the local biogas yield, and the optimization of farm based …

In PowerMatching City, the leading Dutch smart grid project, 40 households participated in a field laboratory designed for sustainable living. The participating households were equipped with various decentralized energy sources (PV and micro combined heat-power units), hybrid heat pumps, smart appliances, …

SAMENVATTING In opdracht van Anne-­‐Lieke Struijk, eigenaar van foodblog Juniperberry.nl, is een onderzoek gestart hoe zoekmachineoptimalisatie en usability ingezet kunnen worden om meer vaste bezoekers naar haar website te trekken. Anne-­‐Lieke’s blog trekt per maand rond de 2.500 unieke bezoekers. …

Frail elderly patients undergoing major surgery experience a decrease of physical capacity due to their hospital stay and surgery. This affects the risk of postoperative complications and their performance of activities, independence and participation.The Better in, Better out™ (BiBo™) strategy was developed …

Plasma gasification has been studied as a new technology which may combine bio-waste treatment and energy generation. Currently, a setup for carrying out gasification experiments has been built up in order to obtain more experimental data for further research. According to previous experimental results, …

Gas-phase diffusion is a widespread process in nature, for example diffusion of pollutants in the atmosphere. A special case of diffusion is the so-called Knudsen diffusion where a gas diffuses in the molecular flow regime. The theory for Knudsen diffusion is well-known therefore, diffusion experiments …

The energy efficiency and sustainability of an anaerobic green gas production pathway was evaluated, taking into account five biomass feedstocks, optimization of the green gas production pathway, replacement of current waste management pathways by mitigation, and transport of the feedstocks. Sustainability …

Author supplied: In a production environment where different products are being made in parallel, the path planning for every product can be different. The model proposed in this paper is based on a production environment where the production machines are placed in a grid. A software entity, called product …

For long flights, the cruise is the longest phase and where the largest amount of fuel is consumed. An in-cruise optimization method has been implemented to calculate the optimal trajectory that reduces the flight cost. A three-dimensional grid has been created, coupling lateral navigation and vertical …

The aeronautical industry is still under expansion in spite of the problems it is facing due to the increase in oil prices, limited capacity, and novel regulations. The expansion trends translate into problems at different locations within an airport system and are more evident when the resources to …
