Power-to-Olefins: Electrified Steam Cracking and Plasma Booster Catalisti
Steam cracking
Olefins, including ethylene, are a group of vital building blocks in the chemical industry. Today, they are mainly produced through steam cracking of hydrocarbons. This process results in ...
C²O: Light-Assisted and Thermal Heterogeneous Catalysis for the Direct Conversion of CO2 to Olefins Catalisti
Key building blocks
Light olefins (like ethylene and propylene) are key building blocks for the chemical industry. In Flanders, they are produced on a huge scale. Their production, mostly through steam cracking of naphtha, results in significant CO2 emissions.
From CO2 to olefins
Recently, an ...

Moonrise: Hybrid Membrane/Sorption Technology for More Efficient C2 and C3 Separations Catalisti
Steam cracking
Light olefins, such as ethylene (C2) and propylene (C3), are vital building blocks in the chemical industry. Today, most ethylene and propylene is produced through steam cracking of hydrocarbons.

Digital 3D measuring techniques for an industrialised construction process for new projects and renovation BBRI (Belgian Building Research Institute)
The current knowledge in the field of measurement - via lasers, scanners, total stations and photogrammetry, whether via drones or not - has expanded greatly in recent years. Contractors and other construction partners are also launching numerous small experiments to see where they can use digital measurement techniques for all kinds problems in different construction phases. This is already generating a stream of punctual questions and ...

Methods for developing and validating clinical risk prediction models with applications KU Leuven
Risk prediction models gain importance as clinical decision support tools. Nevertheless, prediction models do not find their way to everyday practice easily enough. Important factors are
simplicity, validity and robustness. This can be achieved by sensible model development leading to a limited set of predictors, a sufficiently large sample size and/or the use of penalization methods to prevent overfitting. However, variable selection ...
Optimalisation and determination of shelf life of plaice stored in tubs. Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
The aim of this project aims is a highly specific improvement in fish processing: transporting plaice in an improved type of icebox. The big buyers / fileters of plaice would benefit from better service at the fish auction including a customized logistics process. Transport of plaice from the auction to the buyers is better done in tubs than in the classic fish boxes. ILVO therefore examines the ...
