MNEXT (formerly the Center of Expertise – Biobased Economy (CoE BBE)) is researching about the link between Geopolymer, Alginate and Natural fibres treated using Alginate, more specifically about the potential usage of Sodium Alginate and Alginate-treated natural fibres as biological/sustainable binder/activator …

For this research the main objective is to understand the effect fire would have on biocrete, as well as optimizing the amount of Miscanthus fibres into the mixture to make biocrete that is still strong enough for internal walls, as well as sub-research objectives that will be researched and accomplished …

Will Degrowth Save the World: Degrowth & Business

Tijdens dit eerste event van de serie Will Degrowth Save the World gaf Jason Hickel een lezing over de basisprincipes van degrowth.

The focus of this research is to optimize the bio-concrete mixture design containing natural plant-based fibres as well as to investigate and describe the properties of the developed materials. The main goal of the project is to produce a bio-concrete design that is sufficient to be used as an insulation …
