Pavez Jara, J.A. (author), Iswarani, W.P. (author), van Lier, J.B. (author), de Kreuk, M.K. (author)Thermal hydrolysis process (THP) is a widely used pre-treatment method in the anaerobic digestion (AD) of waste municipal sewage sludge. A post AD dewatering step of the digestate produces a liquid stream called reject water. THP increases the concentration of humic substances (HSs) and nutrients in the produced reject water. Struvite...journal article 2024

Della Corte, S. (author), Kraaij, R.C. (author)We consider the context of molecular motors modelled by a diffusion process driven by the gradient of a weakly periodic potential that depends on an internal degree of freedom. The switch of the internal state, that can freely be interpreted as a molecular switch, is modelled as a Markov jump process that depends on the location of the motor....journal article 2024

Challenges and opportunities for CO2 electroreduction from a process systems engineering perspectiveDal Mas, R. (author), Somoza Tornos, A. (author), Pérez-Fortes, Mar (author), Kortlever, R. (author), Kiss, A.A. (author)Despite the huge efforts devoted to the development of the electrochemical reduction of CO2 (ECO2R) in the past decade, still many challenges are present, hindering further approaches to industrial applications. This paper gives a perspective on these challenges from a Process Systems Engineering (PSE) standpoint, while at the same time...journal article 2024

(author)The main objective of this paper is to present a delamination benchmark test concept for composite materials that develop non-self-similar delamination in characterization specimens. The non-self-similar delamination is induced by rotating the loading blocks. The simplicity of the test allows for analyzing the loading mode history by...journal article 2024

Liu, Yuxuan (author), Eeltink, Debbie (author), van den Bremer, T.S. (author), Adcock, Thomas A.A. (author)Wave breaking is a complex physical process about which open questions remain. For some applications, it is critical to include breaking effects in phase-resolved envelope-based wave models such as the non-linear Schrödinger. A promising approach is to use machine learning to capture breaking effects. In the present paper we develop the...journal article 2024
