Designing system innovations; an approach

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
The transition from the fossil energy system to a renewable system is more than just a normal 'innovation'. It is not only about the introduction of a new technique, and the change of the societal and economic practices in which it is applied.

Fundamentals of fluidized bed membrane reactors

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
With the integration of membranes in fluidized bed reactors a large extent of process intensification can be achieved, especially for the production of ultra-pure hydrogen. However, the integration of membranes and their configuration, as well as the effect of permeation of gas through the membranes influence  the fluidization behaviour significantly.

The Control of Complexity

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
Mathematical models of dynamical systems become increasingly complex as a consequence of increasing requirements on technical specifications and technological improvements. Techniques for model-based system design and model based control design therefore need to cope with high levels of complexity of mathematical models.

The Role of Catalysis in the Clean Energy Transition

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
We have far more oil, coal and gas than we can safely burn. Tackling global warming implies that we must leave most of our fossil reserves in the ground. This will require a completely different way of running our economy, shifting away from liquid fuels for mobility and deriving our chemicals and materials as much as possible from renewable resources.

Methods, Mechanism, and Applications of Photodeposition in Photocatalysis

Seminar, to
DIFFER event
Illumination of a slurry of (micrometer sized) semiconductor particles in an aqueous phase solution of a metal salt, often results in deposition of well-defined metal(oxide) nanoparticles on the surface of the semiconductor particles: this phenomenon is generally known as photodeposition.
