Potential application of MSWI bottom ash as substitute material in Portland cement concrete: Filler or binder

In recent years, the rapid industrialization and urbanization led to the explosive growth of municipal solid waste incineration (MSWI) bottom ashes (BA) production. However, most of them are directly landfilled, which not only brings environmental burden but also results in loss of potential resources. Present researches have proved that MSWI BA...

Self-healing short-circuits in organic light-emitting diodes and solar cells

Organic materials open the way for large-scale applications of Organic Light-Emitting Diodes (OLED) and solar cells (OPV). These materials can be large-scale processed using printing and coating on rigid and flexible substrates. The resulting devices can therefore be fabricated at low cost for various applications. Production yields suffer,...

Creating the integral engineer: Combining development education, sustainability, entrepreneurship and technology at Delft University of Technology

A modern engineer is more than a technical specialist. Training an integral engineer requires education in non-technical skills, including social and ethical aspects. Therefore, Delft University of Technology (DUT) introduced sustainable development and entrepreneurship into its bachelor and master programs. The university of the future is...
