Environmental Impact Assessment of Resource Recovery Through Enhanced Landfill Mining - Addressing Uncertainties via Life Cycle Assessment and Integrated Approaches KU Leuven
Due to the vast amount of landfills in Europe, and in the world, and the limited availability of primary raw materials and land space, new waste management concepts are being developed. The focus is on the reduction of risks to human health and the environment (HHE) and on a more integrated recovery of resources. In this context, the concept of landfill mining (LFM), and the more integrated approach of enhanced landfill mining (ELFM), are ...

Ultra-sensitive minimal residual disease assessment by blood-based clonotypic mass spectrometry approach in plasma cell dyscrasias (MASSIAS) KU Leuven
With nearly 1000 new diagnoses in Belgium in 2020, multiple myeloma accounted for ~1.5% of all new registered cancer diagnoses in that year. Current response criteria in treated multiple myloma patients recommend determining minimal residual disease (MRD) detection with either next-generation flowcytometry (NGF) or next-generation sequencing (NGS) on bone marrow aspirates as the cornerstone of disease management in patients in complete ...
