(author)Wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are a major source of N<sub>2</sub>O, a potent greenhouse gas with 300 times higher global warming potential than CO<sub>2</sub>. Several approaches have been proposed for mitigation of N<sub>2</sub>O emissions from WWTPs and have shown promising yet only site-specific results. Here, self-sustaining...journal article 2023

Klyde, D.H. (author)From the Wright Flyer to fly-by-wire, the phenomenon of pilot-induced oscillations (PIO) has persisted, evolving with the complexity of the airframes and their associated flight control systems. Though airframe designers have long recognized the threat posed by PIO, each generation has been forced to address the issue whether identified in...doctoral thesis 2022

Wijdeveld, W. K. (author), Prot, T.J.F. (author), Sudintas, G. (author), Kuntke, P. (author), Korving, L. (author), van Loosdrecht, Mark C.M. (author)Phosphorus (P) is an essential resource for food production and chemical industry. Phosphorus use has to become more sustainable and should include phosphorus recycling from secondary sources. About 20% of P ends up in sewage sludge, making this a substantial secondary P source. There is currently a technological gap to recover P from sludge...journal article 2022

Stolper, Louis Cornelis (author), Bergsma, J.M. (author), Pruyn, J.F.J. (author)The energy transition of Dutch shipping is a complex gradual process due to the variety in vessels, cost and lifetime of assets, uncertainty, additional costs of climate-neutral alternatives and required regulatory changes. This paper aims to create a holistic overview of both the transition barriers and enablers. A focus is placed on the...journal article 2022

Ham, P.H. (author)In the overpopulated deltas of the Philippines people live in are-as that see floods regularly. The floods are being caused by a com-bination of tides, heavy rainfall and land subsidence. The demand for safe and affordable housing is immense, yet available dry land is scarce. By implementing floating homes in vacant former rice fields,...conference paper 2022

(author)The pilot-scale production of the peroxygenase from Agrocybe aegerita (rAaeUPO) is demonstrated. In a fed-batch fermentation of the recombinant Pichia pastoris, the enzyme was secreted into the culture medium to a final concentration of 0.29 g L-1 corresponding to 735 g of the peroxygenase in 2500 L of the fermentation broth after 6 days.

Ton, D. (author), Duives, D.C. (author)Globally, the need for more sustainable modes of transport is rising. One of the main contenders of the car is the electrical bike (e-bike). To promote the use of e-bikes, pilots are being organised worldwide (e.g. in the USA, Norway, and the Netherlands). Studies have shown that providing a free e-bike to people for a limited period of time...journal article 2021
