Amladi, Amogh (author), Venkataraman, V. (author), Woudstra, T. (author), Aravind, P.V. (author)Energy storage is vital for the energy transition, enabling reliable power grids based on intermittent renewables. Reversible solid oxide cell (rSOC) technology is promising for seasonal energy storage. The novel finding from this work is that optimised air recirculation for rSOC in endothermic electrolyser mode leads to efficiency being...journal article 2024

Das Sadiq, Kabir (author), Aravind, P.V. (author), Woudstra, T. (author), Jaiganesh, N. (author), Ajith kumar, R. (author)The performance of a 30-kW gasifier–SOFC–GT system was evaluated using thermodynamic calculations. Nickel/Gadolinia Doped Ceria (Ni/GDC) anodes were utilized for Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs). These systems can achieve high electrical efficiencies of above 50%. The goal of the study is to evaluate trends in system efficiency when carbon...journal article 2023

van Veldhuizen, B.N. (author), van Biert, L. (author), Amladi, A. (author), Woudstra, T. (author), Visser, K. (author), Aravind, P.V. (author)An increasing demand in the marine industry to reduce emissions led to investigations into more efficient power conversion using fuels with sustainable production pathways. Solid Oxide Fuel Cells (SOFCs) are under consideration for long-range shipping, because of its high efficiency, low pollutant emissions, and fuel flexibility. SOFC systems...journal article 2023

Recalde Moreno Del Rocio, M.D.R. (author), Amladi, Amogh (author), Venkataraman, Vikrant (author), Woudstra, T. (author), Aravind, P.V. (author)The low cost of electricity in some areas facilitates the adoption of high-temperature electrolysis plants for the large-scale storage of electricity. Supercritical water gasification (SCWG) is a promising method of syngas production from wet biomass. Additionally, it is a potential source of steam for electrochemical plants. However, the...journal article 2022

Shikhar, Utkarsh (author), Hemmes, Kas (author), Woudstra, T. (author)Fuel cells are electrochemical devices that are conventionally used to convert the chemical energy of fuels into electricity while producing heat as a byproduct. High temperature fuel cells such as molten carbonate fuel cells and solid oxide fuel cells produce significant amounts of heat that can be used for internal reforming of fuels such...journal article 2021

Saadabadi, S.A. (author), Patel, H.C. (author), Woudstra, T. (author), Aravind, P.V. (author)Energy and exergy performance of ammonia fuelled solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) integrated system in wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) is evaluated in this study. Ammonia can be recovered through a struvite precipitation process in the form of an ammonia-water mixture (with 14 mol.% ammonia) and used as a carbon-free fuel. A series of...journal article 2020

Giannoulidis, S. (author), Venkataraman, V. (author), Woudstra, T. (author), Aravind, P.V. (author)Hydrogen is yet to be widely accepted as a fuel for everyday operation due to stringent safety regulations involved around it. In the meanwhile, methanol could be a potential fuel of the future. In this work, an extensive thermodynamic investigation on an energy storage system with a reversible solid oxide stack at its core is presented. The...journal article 2020

(author), Juffermans, LJ (author)Successful stem cell therapy after acute myocardial infarction (AMI) is hindered by lack of engraftment of sufficient stem cells at the site of injury. We designed a novel technique to overcome this problem by assembling stem cell-microbubble complexes, named 'StemBells'. StemBells were assembled through binding of dual-targeted microbubbles (...journal article 2016

Woudstra, N. (author)General There is a general understanding that the so-called “developed countries” have to change their way of life including their energy supply into a more sustainable way. But even in the case of unanimity with regard to the direction, there are still many opinions about the way to follow. This thesis discusses problems and possibilities of...doctoral thesis 2012

Aravind, P.V. (author), Ouweltjes, J.P. (author), Woudstra, N. (author), Rietveld, G. (author)The impact of biomass-derived contaminants on solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) with Ni/gadolinia-doped ceria (GDC) anodes was investigated using electrochemical impedance analysis. Measurements were carried out with symmetric test cells under a single-gas atmosphere. The impact of H2S, HCl, and naphthalene in the gas stream on the performance of...journal article 2007
