A pressurizer is a specialized vessel used to regulate pressure in the primary coolant loop of pressurized light water nuclear reactors (PWRs). During normal operation heat lost to the surrounding environment is replaced by heating coils in the pressurizer tank to maintain system ... Read More
The fabrication of new reactor types has been simplified significantly by the rapid progression within the field of additive manufacturing. A reactor can be fit to nearly every specific task by varying its geometry and therefore its reactant hold-up and flow conditions in continuous ... Read More
Introduction Over the last years, there has been an increasing interest in plastic recycling as an alternative to reduce fossil fuel dependency. In this light, chemical recycling has been presented as a promising strategy to maximise the recycling rate, although this technology presents ... Read More
The wide bandgap semiconductor silicon carbide (SiC) has drawn increasing attention in recent years as a promising material for high-power, high-frequency, and high-temperature operating devices. These outstanding properties of SiC make it a good candidate to replace silicon in many ... Read More
Increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are known to be the main cause of global warming. Among the various decarbonisation strategies proposed, geological storage of CO2 is one of the most interesting options for reducing net carbon emissions to the atmosphere. ... Read More
The development of microfluidic components for implementation of a lab-on-chip system requires both fluid movements under a controlled environment as well as sensitive detection. This work involves the design and simulation of micro-reactors with integrated heating as well as optical ... Read More
With the ReactorSTM the relationship between surface structure and catalyst activity under industrially relevant conditions can be investigated. It enables atomic-scale observations of model catalysts under conditions approaching those used by the chemical industry. It consists of a ... Read More
Smart materials, due to their ability to undergo structural and functional changes in response to external stimuli have garnered significant attention in different applications. Among these, metal hydrides have been extensively studied as potential candidates for hydrogen storage. ... Read More
Present work is done in the framework of the SisAl Pilot EU project, which aims at optimising the silicon production in Europe by recycling materials and using a carbon-emission friendly technology. The silicon production experiments are conducted on laboratory and pilot scales in ... Read More
Water disinfection using UV light is a well-known technology. Conventionally, mercury based cylindrical lamps are used, however, recently LED based UV lamps have emerged on a commercial scale. These devices hold several advantages compared to the conventional lamps, e.g. being mercury ... Read More
