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 …

Context and purpose Following the rapid growth of the voluntary carbon removal market, and the need to scale high-integrity, internationally recognised standards, the EU has developed a Carbon Removal and Carbon Farming Regulation (CRCF) (2024/3012) for DACCS (direct air carbon capture and storage), …

This century, greenhouse gas emissions such as carbon dioxide, methane and nitrogen oxides must be significantly reduced. Greenhouse gases absorb and emit infrared radiation that contributes to global warming, which can lead to irreversible negative consequences for humans and the environment. Greenhouse …

In this manuscript we present the results of a four-year monitor among a representative panel of Dutch citizens on the knowledge, awareness and opinions regarding hydrogen. Hydrogen has the potential to play an important role in the energy transition and therefore receives a growing attention. At the …

Samen met Martien Visser een presentatie gegeven. Martien ging in op de stand van zaken rondom opwekking Energie in Drenthe en ik ben ingegaan hoe moeilijk bereikbare groepen kunnen worden bereikt.

In Europe, green hydrogen and biogas/green gas are considered important renewable energy carriers, besides renewable electricity and heat. Still, incentives proceed slowly, and the feasibility of local green gas is questioned. A supply chain of decentralised green hydrogen production from locally generated …

Decentralised renewable energy production in the form of fuels or electricity can have large scale deployment in future energy systems, but the feasibility needs to be assessed. The novelty of this paper is in the design and implementation of a mixed integer linear programming optimisation model to minimise …

Local farmers in Central Kalimantan have continued to destroy peatlands in the area to make space for planting more profitable crops like oil palm. These peatlands store huge amounts of carbon and degrading them increases the release of greenhouse gases emissions. For this reason, planting of naturally …

The aim of this research was to find out in how far the Netherlands could learn from Sweden regarding the use of manure, in order to create awareness within the equine sector on sustainable solutions. The number of horses in Europe exceeds 5 million and keeps increasing, therefore contributes to greenhouse …

The Netherlands is a densely populated and economically developed country. Coastal areas are important for aquaculture, agriculture, harbors, and urban development. Coastal habitats mainly exist on the south Delta coast and the north Wadden sea, hosting a great biological diversity. The Netherlands had …
