Dual modification of potato starch in one step by combining annealing with ion exchange was identified as a potent strategy to influence functional starch properties. This dual modification was upscaled for food application studies and performed for both native and waxy potato starch at optimized conditions …

Presentatie over de circulaire valorisatie van gras op het boerenerf door middel van geintegreerde technologien. Koppeling van biologische voorbewerkingsmethode (artificiele rumen reactoren) met vergistingstechnologie, biomethanatie, electrochemie en pyrolyse: van gras tot bioenergie, meststoffen, en …

To broaden the application of biomethanation for energy storage and renewable integration, this study investigates the performance of a trickle-bed reactor (TBR) for hydrogen (H2) utilisation in biogas upgrading, using both pure Carbon dioxide (CO2) and biogas-derived CO2 as substrates for methane (CH4) …

In De sprong is aan ons staan de ruim honderd innovaties die in de eerste fase van het programma Toekomstbestendige Leefomgeving (TBL) zijn ontwikkeld: van materiaalinnovaties en productinnovaties tot procesinnovaties. Neem biobased vezelhennep in de prefabbouw en renovatie, een innovatie die momenteel …

During the symposium NoorderRuimte, researchers and students present their work. During the session Sustainable Built Environment (SBE), the lector and researchers presented their work with the concept of 'the brick', discussing past, present and future aspects of material, designing, architecture and …

Potato starch offers the unique potential of mineral enrichment through the presence of phosphorylated amylopectin chains. This property was utilised in a straightforward dual modification of native potato starch by combining mineral enrichment with dry heat treatments (DHT). DHT itself (110–130 °C, …

Circular, biobased, and modular construction practices are gaining traction as cities seek to reduce the environmental impact of the built environment. However, little is known about how these strategies affect construction logistics and their associated emissions. We develop an agent-based model to …

The healthcare sector ranks among the largest consumers of single-use plastics, generating substantial amounts of waste, an issue strikingly captured in Maria Koijck's breast surgery photography. To reduce the environmental impact, biobased and biodegradable polymers are promising alternatives to conventional …

Het onderzoek ontwikkelt een geïntegreerd procesraamwerk dat parallel plannen en parametrisch ontwerpen combineert om de Nederlandse woningbouw te versnellen, betaalbaar en duurzaam te maken binnen een circulaire bouweconomie. Het kwalitatief-exploratieve onderzoek, gebaseerd op literatuur, expertinterviews …
