Biorefineries are set to become an important agent in the shift towards a circular economy due to their potential to valorize organic wastes into marketable products. Anaerobic fermentations yielding volatile fatty acids (VFA) are a key process in this biorefinery paradigm as VFA act as intermediates between the organic wastes and the final biorefinery products. However, the development of a new bioprocess based on mixed-culture fermentation is an extremely challenging task. Targeting the desired ...

Salmon farming in the future must navigate conflicting and shifting demands of sustainability, shifting feed prices, disease, and product quality. The industry needs to develop a flexible, integrated basis of knowledge for rapid response to new challenges. The Digital Salmon will be an ensemble of mathematical descriptions of salmon physiology, combining mathematics, high-dimensional data analysis, computer science and measurement technology with genomics and experimental biology into a concerted ...

To systematically evaluate the general efficacy of nape acupuncture combined with rehabilitation training for the treatment of post-stroke dysphagia and in the recovery of swallowing function.

This is research programme towards the production of a collection of Chapters for a book on thermodynamics, kinetics and systems biology that is being written by Hans V. Westerhoff. This book will be a successor to 'Thermodynamics and control of biological free-energy transduction, Elsevier, Amsterdam (1987) by Westerhoff, H.V. & Van Dam, K.

The coordinated project TREASURE has as main objective the development and evaluation of a modular treatment train comprising two lines operated in parallel to valorize and treat the wastewater (WW) produced in the fish-canning industry.

Biogroup will be responsible for the Sub-Project 1 TECHNOSALT "Unravelling salt and temperature effects on the performance of an integrated modular system for fish canning wastewater treatment and valorization" Its objective is the development and evaluation of ...
