Nandakishor, T. M. (author), Gopi, Girigan (author), Champatan, Vipin (author), Sukesh, A. (author), Aravind, P.V. (author)Support for the adoption of climate change mitigation measures in low-income regions depends on how such activities contribute to generating household income and gaining confidence from the local community. The planning of mitigation measures or pro-environmental activities need to consider the cost of deployment, customization of activities...journal article 2022

van Deelen, Julie (author)With the population growing and countries becoming more affluent, diets shift. These global dietary shifts contribute greatly to increasing greenhouse gas emissions because of their higher carbon and water intensities. This development is problematic considering both the growth in our global economy as well as our population. It is therefore...master thesis 2021

Bärlocher, Desirée (author)Cocoa production plays a significant role in global tree cover and biodiversity loss. Amid rising concerns over its role in environmental degradation, agroforestry has emerged as a potential solution to satisfy growing global demand for cocoa in a climate-smart and sustainable way. As a shade tolerant crop, there has been much discussion over...master thesis 2021

Wendel, Bram (author)The food sector plays a crucial role in exceeding several planetary boundaries. Currently, humanity has the challenge to stay between these boundaries. Food forests are an approach for improving ecosystems in soil quality, sequestering carbon and enhancing biodiversity while providing food. However, this concept is yet nearly unstudied in...master thesis 2021

(author), Gebert, J. (author), Aravind, P.V. (author)Increasing pressure on farming systems due to rapid urbanization and population growth has severely affected soil health and fertility. The need to meet the growing food demands has also led to unsustainable farming practices with the intensive application of chemical fertilizers and pesticides, resulting in significant greenhouse gas...review 2021

van Wijnen, Wouter (author)To meet the climate goals set by the government, the building sector needs to reduce its contribution to the environmental burden on society. However, the current situation in the Netherlands presents a major challenge to build more to reduce the housing shortage, while at the same time reducing its environmental footprint. Therefore,...master thesis 2020

Grover, Rahul (author)The building industry accounts for almost 40% of the total carbon emissions that are directly responsible for climate change. The buildings are now deploying energy-efficient solutions to lower carbon emissions from the operational phase. This adversely affects the share of embodied carbon emissions of building materials. The graduation thesis...master thesis 2020

Harsha, Shreyas (author)The amine-based post combustion carbon capture process is one of the most advanced and preferred technologies to reduce CO2 emissions from point sources like power plants. The emissions of amine from capture plants is one of the biggest challenges faced by this technology. These emissions typically occur by means of aerosol/mist formation. To...master thesis 2018

Rijntjes, Jeroen (author)One of the most important challenges facing academic, industrial and policy-making sectors is meeting with the increasing energy demand while preserving the affordability of the energy and maintaining the quality of the planet earth (including the environment, specially by reducing its greenhouse gas footprint). This global challenge demands for...master thesis 2018

Hadi Mosleh, Mojgan (author), Turner, Matthew (author), Sedighi, Majid (author), Vardon, P.J. (author)Uncertainties exist on the efficiency of CO<sub>2</sub> injection and storage in deep unminable coal seems due to potential reduction in the permeability of coal that is induced by CO<sub>2</sub> adsorption into the coal matrix. In addition, there is a limited knowledge about the stability of CO<sub>2</sub> stored in coal due to changes in...journal article 2018

Alshiroofi, Duaa (author)Subsurface carbon dioxide (CO2) sequestration is a promising technology to reduce the CO2 emission into the atmosphere. After injection into subsurface formation, the carbon dioxide plume can migrate several kilometres until it is fully trapped. Four major mechanisms play an important role in trapping which include structural trapping, residual...master thesis 2017

Musivand Arzanfudi, M. (author), Saeid, Sanaz (author), Al-Khoury, Rafid (author), Sluys, Lambertus J. (author)This paper introduces a multidomain-staggered technique for coupling multiphase flow in a porous medium, dominated by the Darcy laminar flow, with multiphase flow in a wellbore, dominated by the Navier Stokes viscous, compressible flow. The Darcy flow in the porous medium is formulated using the averaging theory, and the Navier Stokes flow in...journal article 2016

Roels, S.M. (author), El Chatib, N. (author), Nicolaides, C. (author), Zitha, P.L.J. (author)A major challenge of CO2 injection into saline aquifers is the risk of formation clogging due to salt precipitation. Capillary-driven flow of brine can provide a continuous transport of dissolved salt toward the dry zone around the injection well where it ultimately precipitates due to evaporation. In this study, core flooding experiments were...journal article 2016

Roels, S.M. (author)This research concerns the geological storage of CO2 and in particular injectivity impairment problems related to salt precipitation. Drying and salt precipitation in geological formations can have serious consequences for upstream operations in terms of injectivity and productivity. This can negatively affect the performance of injection and...doctoral thesis 2015

Talebian, M. (author)CO2 geo-sequestration (CGS) is considered to be a feasible technology for reducing the amount of CO2 emission into the atmosphere. Selection of an appropriate reservoir is vital and requires appropriate knowledge of the involved phenomena and processes. In a CO2 geo-sequestration process, carbon dioxide goes through mainly four storage (trapping...doctoral thesis 2015

Khosrokhavar, R. (author)The work described in this thesis deals with a variety of aspects related to the storage of carbon dioxide in geological formations. In particular we focus on the transfer between the gas phase to a fluid (liquid) or solid phase. This thesis limits its interest to study the sequestration capacity of CO2 in saline aquifers and more specifically...doctoral thesis 2014

Kirichek, O. (author), Ghose, R. (author), Heller, H.K.J. (author)We investigate the ability of complex electrical measurements to monitor the CO2 front propagation within brine-saturated reservoir rock. A laboratory facility has been developed to perform CO2-brine substitution experiments under reservoir conditions. In the present study, CO2 is injected into a brine-saturated core while the complex electrical...journal article 2013

Farajzadeh, R. (author), Meulenbroek, B.J. (author), Daniel, D. (author), Riaz, A. (author), Bruining, J. (author)In this paper, we follow a similar procedure as proposed by Koval (SPE J 3(2):145–154, 1963) to analytically model CO2 transfer between the overriding carbon dioxide layer and the brine layer below it. We show that a very thin diffusive layer on top separates the interface from a gravitationally unstable convective flow layer below it. Flow in...journal article 2013
