Mithaiwala, Hiteshree (author)In developing countries with increased industrialization, much research is carried out in order to recover the maximum ammonium from the environment. One of the methods to recover ammonium is Bipolar Membrane Electrodialysis (BPMED), a chemical-free technology that enables recovery and purification of the corresponding acid and base by the...master thesis 2024

Wilgenburg, Gert (author)The use of non-destructive tests for assessing the material status of concrete structures in the Netherlands remains relatively uncommon, despite the growing demand for the preservation of existing structures under the VenR policy of Rijkswaterstaat. Skepticism towards NDTs is reflected in the scarcity of documented case studies in publicly...master thesis 2024

Miedema, Sander (author)In a future energy system, chemical energy carriers that can easily be stored, like hydrogen, are of vital importance. One possible way of producing carbonneutral hydrogen is by direct solar to hydrogen conversion in a photoelectrochemical cell (PEC). Silicon based multijunction solar cells are a possible candidate for the photovoltaic stack of...master thesis 2021

Lottman, Bas (author)A numerical model is developed in Simulink to simulate transient alkaline electrolyzer operation. The model is built to simulate a large scale hydrogen plant in Rjukan, Norway. The model is based on physical relations where available, some plant-specific data is modeled using empirical equations. The model describes the anodic and cathodic...master thesis 2020

Geelhoed, Jeanine S. (author), Van de Velde, S.J.F. (author), Meysman, F.J.R. (author)Cable bacteria (Deltaproteobacteria, Desulfobulbaceae) are long filamentous sulfur-oxidizing bacteria that generate long-distance electric currents running through the bacterial filaments. This way, they couple the oxidation of sulfide in deeper sediment layers to the reduction of oxygen or nitrate near the sediment-water interface. Cable...journal article 2020

Blommaert, M.A. (author), Verdonk, J.A.H. (author), Blommaert, Hester C.B. (author), Smith, W.A. (author), Vermaas, D.A. (author)A bipolar membrane (BPM) can be used to accelerate water dissociation to maintain a pH gradient in electrochemical cells, providing freedom to independently optimize the environments and catalysts used for paired reduction and oxidation reactions. The two physical layers in a BPM, respectively, selective for the exchange of cations and anions...journal article 2020

Michalska-Domańska, M.E. (author), Lazinska, Magdalena (author), Lukasiewicz, Justyna (author), Mol, J.M.C. (author), Durejko, Tomasz (author)The anodization of commercially pure Ti alloy (99.5 wt %) and two biomedical titanium alloys, Ti6Al7Nb and Ti6Al4V, was performed, and the resulting anodic oxides were studied. The biomedical alloys were made by Laser Engineered Net Shaping. The glycol-based and glycerol-based electrolytes with 0.3 M ammonium fluoride and 2 wt % of deionized...journal article 2020

Haverkort, J.W. (author), Rajaei, H. (author)Under alkaline conditions, hydroxide ions can deplete at the anode of a water electrolyser for hydrogen production, resulting in a limiting current density. We found experimentally that in a micro-porous separator, an electro-osmotic flow from anode to cathode lowers this limiting current density. Using the Nernst-Planck equation, a useful...journal article 2020

Grazioli, D. (author), Zadin, Vahur (author), Brandell, Daniel (author), Simone, A. (author)We study the effect of mechanical stresses arising in solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) on the electrochemical performance of lithium-ion (Li-ion) solid-state batteries. Time-dependent finite element analyses of interdigitated plate cells during a discharge process are performed with a constitutive model that couples ionic conduction within the...journal article 2019

Kozlova, T. (author), Rudneva, M. (author), Zandbergen, H.W. (author)We investigated the reversible electromigration in Pd–Pt nanobridges by means of in situ electron microscopy. Real-time nanometer-scale imaging with scanning transmission electron microscopy was used to determine the material transport. For high current densities (3–5 × 107 A cm?2), material transport occurs from the cathode towards the anode...journal article 2013

Mok, K.R.C. (author), Naber, R.C.G. (author), Nanver, L.K. (author)Emitter saturation current densities, Joe have been investigated with different boron implantation dose and annealing conditions. The higher thermal budgets used here are shown experimentally to improve Joe, implying more complete defect dissolution. Simulations show that significant degradation in Joe can be attributed to the presence of...conference paper 2012

Hagen, C.W. (author), Kruit, P. (author)The authors have analyzed how much current can be obtained in the probe of an optimized two-lens focused ion beam (FIB) system. This becomes relevant, as systems become available that have the potential to image and/or fabricate structures smaller than 10 nm. The probe current versus probe size curves were calculated for a commercial gallium-FIB...journal article 2009
