Brancaccio, Marina (author)
The ever-increasing power demand, the high scarcity of fossil fuel resources and the growing environmental pollution have pushed the development on technologies related to sustainable energy systems. Maximizing the energetic performance of industrial processes is a key aspect in this quest for sustainable<br/>energy management. A large share of...

As a result of the unabated growth in plastic usage worldwide, their abundance in the marine environment has steadily increased over the last few decades. Nowadays, plastic litter is observed across all oceans and shores. Due to their wide spread and adverse effects on ecology, economy and potentially human health, plastic pollution has been...

Bemelmans, Mark (author)
By combining the RACMO2.3 RCM output with GRACE non-tidal ocean and atmospheric pressure anomaly as well as geo-center motion corrections from 2003 to 2017, a physics-based model to estimate the vertical displacement of the Greenland surface bedrock is created. This model is able to convert the mass and pressure anomalies into vertical...

Softening at drinking water treatment plants is often realised by fluidised bed pellet reactors. Generally, sand is used as seeding material and pellets are produced as a by-product. To improve to sustainability, research has been carried out to replace the seeding material by re-using grained and sieved calcite pellets as seeding material. An...

De Vos, J. (author)
Simulation of reservoir operations is important to investigate the effects of climate change and changes in human water demands on water availability in the future. Several reservoir simulation models exist, however it is unknown in which situations what type of model could be applied. This study tries to give an answer to the question how...

In practice, drinking water technologists use simplified calculation methods for aquatic chemistry calculations. Recently, the database stimela.dat is developed especially for aquatic chemistry for drinking water treatment processes. The database is used in PHREEQC, the standard in geohydrology for calculating chemical equilibria in groundwater....

This master thesis comprehends a study on khettaras, historical subsurface drainage tunnels, in East Morocco. A numerical groundwater model was set up to simulate these systems and to get a better understanding of their behaviour. Subsequently, the model was used to simulate the effect of several scenarios: increased use of pumped wells in the...

Pathogens are present in our urban water system, and may pose a health risk to swimmers and playing children. Although the knowledge of pathogens has increased over recent years, little is known about their behaviour in the urban water system. The goal of this thesis is to investigate this. First, the behaviour of pathogens under the influence...

Kleptsova, O. (author)
In this thesis a z?layer unstructured C-grid finite volume hydrostatic model is presented. An efficient and highly scalable implicit technique for the solution of the free surface equation is combined with an Eulerian approach for the advection of momentum. A consistent velocity reconstruc- tion procedure which not only satisfies the continuity...

Van Schagen, K.M. (author)
The drinking water in the Netherlands is of high quality and the production cost is low. This is the result of extensive research in the past decades to innovate and optimise the treatment processes. The processes are monitored and operated by motivated and skilled operators and process technologists, which leads to an operator-dependent,...

Drinking water treatment plants automation becomes more sophisticated, more on-line monitoring systems become available and integration of modeling environments with control systems becomes easier. This gives possibilities for model-based optimization. In operation of drinking water treatment plants, the processes are usually optimized...

Franssen, D. (author)
In this report a study is presented concerning the morphological impact of breakwater structures perpendicular to a coast. This study was initially associated with the Indian coast between Chennai (formerly known as Madras) and Ennore in India. Like many ports, the harbour of Chennai had, and still has a considerable morphological impact on the...
