Driving the future of water resource recovery facilities through data intelligence Ghent University
The wastewater sector is undergoing a major transformation as wastewater treatment plants (WWTP) become water resource recovery facilities (WRRF). Artificial intelligence (AI) supports data exploitation to accelerate this transition as the deployment of AI-powered tools in production, compared to existing treatment technologies, is much faster. This limits AI’s full use in driving the change from WWTPs to WRRFs. The EU-funded DARROW project ...
TOPTRANS: a sub-micron alignment accuracy large-area micro-transfer printing tool for the electronic-photonic micro-systems of the future Ghent University
Today, one cannot imagine a world without electronics or photonics. Electronic chips are everywhere: they are the heart of our laptops and smartphones and are largely based on monolithic silicon-based technologies. Photonics is the science and technology that uses light and offers solutions where today's conventional technologies are approaching their limits in terms of speed, capacity and accuracy. Enriching the digital electronics world ...
