Coal is playing a major role as a reductant and as an energy source in the present world steel production due to its low cost and widespread distribution around the world. At the same time, being the largest contributor to global CO2 emissions, coal faces significant environmental challenges in terms of air pollution and global warming....

In large scale fermentors the cultivated cells are exposed to dynamic changes in the nutrient concentrations due to imperfect mixing. Based on the characterization of these nutrient gradients in space and time, a rational scale down design can be obtained. This study focuses on the combined gradients of dissolved sugar and oxygen...

The tactile internet can be described as the next step of the internet. It can empower people, adding physical interactions to what normally is just an audiovisual experience.<br/>It however does need ultra-low latency. <br/>A solution to having delays can be found in environment simulation.<br/>This paper describes a way to find the correct...

The Earth magnetic field is used in many applications such as navigation. Magnetic field sensors are mainly used on satellites for attitude control and in limited missions as scientific instruments. These magnetic field instruments are: specifically designed for the mission, expensive and/or require knowledge of the magnetic noise sources...

High-water levels in the Rhine-Meuse delta are going to rise in the upcoming decades due to climate change with the accompanied sea level rise and the increase of the frequency of extreme Rhine discharges. The flood prone areas not protected by flood defenses at the Island of Dordrecht are directly influenced by the increase of these high-water...

Engineered strains of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae are intensively studied as production platforms for aromatic compounds such as hydroxycinnamic acids, stilbenoids and flavonoids. Heterologous pathways for production of these compounds use L-phenylalanine and/or L-tyrosine, generated by the yeast shikimate pathway, as aromatic...

A molecular modeling study was carried out on linear polyethyleneimine (LPEI) to determine the CO2 capturing process taking into account structural changes of the material at various amounts of H2O. Until now, CO2 capture by LPEI was described as a combination of carbamic and carbonic acid formation. It was found that humidification below the...

This thesis is focused on Wireless Acoustic Sensor Networks (WASNs) used for beamforming in a speech enhancement task. Since each node in a WASN has its own clock, clock offsets and clock skews between the nodes are inevitable. Clock offsets and clock skew can be detrimental to the beamformer performance. In this thesis we focus on the effect of...

Machine learning is used for security purposes, to differ between the benign and the malicious. Where decision trees can lead to understandable and explainable classifications, an adversary could manipulate the model input to evade detection, e.g. the malicious been classified as the benign. State-of-the-art techniques improve the robustness by...

The city of New York is densifying wherever it can, more pencil-like skyscrapers are being constructed every year, adding more housing and office space that is in high demand. Recently, industrial areas such as Hudson Yards have been transformed to gain more area to build on. Hell’s Kitchen forms one of the few exceptions for this trend of...

The central Thermo Electrico Antonio Guiteras (CTE Antonio Guiteras) is a thermoelectric power plant located in the bay of Matanzas. In 2017, hurricane Irma passed the north coast of Cuba and destroyed the primary sea defense in front of the CTE, causing major damage to the plant. The power plant is renovated, and a new and improved sea defense...

Since 2012, the polymeric resin Lewatit R VP OC 1065 has been investigated for removal of CO2 from various process streams and air. The present article focuses on the deactivation mechanism of the resin with SO2 and a work around. This is important for CO2 capture from flue gas of coal-fired power plants and fuel oil. The deactivation of the...

Lewatit R VP OC 1065 is a promising material for direct air capture of CO<sub>2</sub>. However, it was found that serious oxidative degradation already started from 80 °C. In this DFT study, oxidative degradation is described as a series of well-known reactions in air-oxidation chemistry. Oxidation of the resin starts with the formation of an...

Since 2012, Lewatit R VP OC 1065 was reported as a promising material for direct air capture of CO<sub>2</sub>. However, deactivation at a high pressure of CO<sub>2</sub> at 120 °C was reported with detrimental effects on its application. In this study, using density functional theory calculations, a quantitative description of the...

A common problem that faces the oil and gas industry is the formation of iron sulfide scale in various stages of production. Recently an effective chemical formulation was proposed to remove all types of iron sulfide scales (including pyrite), consisting of a chelating agent diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) at high pH using potassium...

Iron sulphide scale, which exists in different forms, is common in sour oil and gas production wells. Iron sulphide hard scales are difficult to remove with acids, requiring mechanical intervention or the replacement of the production tubing. An environmentally friendly formulation with a high pH is proposed for the removal of both soft and...

When working offshore on a floating vessel, the vessel will be subjected to wave induced motions and with a moving crane tip, a suspended load can start to swing. When the motions of the load become too large, the operation is interrupted. Alternatives such as jack-ups, function as a fixed platform to which the crane is attached, therefore...

In this work, a switched-device power amplier using bias control is designed and realized. The PA operates at a frequency of 100MHz. Test results show that the PA achieves a PAE of 63% at −6dB power back-off and 60% at the peak output power of 40dBm. First, an overview of the state-of-the-art PA technology and performance in high PAPR...

Natural gas, synthesis gas, and flue gas typically contain a large number of impurities (e.g., acidic gases), which should be removed to avoid environmental and technological problems, and to meet customer specifications. One approach is to use physical solvents to remove the acidic gases. If no experimental data are available, the solubility...
